Charis Bible Studies Notice, Release and Waiver
By signing below, I hereby acknowledge that I have read, understand, agree and consent to the terms of this Charis Bible Studies Notice, Release and Waiver.
Charis Bible Studies is a service provided by Charis Bible College to certain individuals who desire to teach Bible studies using Andrew Wommack’s product and materials. Charis Bible Study leaders and all related or affiliated persons (hereinafter, individually and collectively, “CBS leaders”) are independent, and are not agents or employees, of Charis Bible College, Inc. or Andrew Wommack Ministries, Inc. CBS leaders do not provide medical examination, advice or treatment, or professional counseling or psychotherapy. They are not licensed medical, psychotherapy or counseling providers. They teach religious and spiritual principles from the Bible. I understand that any information I receive from a Charis Bible Studies leader is for my personal consideration only. The ministers are not operating as qualified counselors or medical personnel and therefore are not liable to give advice outside of spiritual guidance.
Charis Bible College has no control over, or actual or potential liability or responsibility for, any actions or inactions of the CBS leaders or over the facilities or premises where the Bible studies are conducted. Charis Bible College makes no representations or warranties, express or implied, regarding the safety or conditions of the premises of the Bible studies or of the characteristics of the CBS leaders or other attendees at the Bible studies. Each person attending the Bible Studies is solely responsible for their own safety.
I hereby fully and completely waive, release and discharge Andrew Wommack Ministries, Inc., Charis Bible College, Inc. and their parents, subsidiaries and affiliated companies, agents, officers, representatives and assigns, and all CBS leaders (hereinafter, individually and collectively, “Releasees”), of and from any and all liability and responsibility for any and all claims, causes of action, damages, costs, attorneys fees or equitable relief, for or arising out of a (1) any act or omission of any CBS leader, host, guest or other person allegedly connected or related to such Bible study, and (2) any condition, risk or danger, present on the premises of the Bible study.
CBS leaders may from time to time record video or sound or take photographs before, during or after the Bible study. I hereby acknowledge and understand that my voice and image, as well as that of my family who may be present, may be recorded by these means. I consent and agree that the leader of the Bible study and other persons connected to the Study may edit these images and recordings and may use them for the purpose of promoting or advertising the Bible study or the Charis Bible Studies program, or any other aspect of Charis Bible College, Inc. or Andrew Wommack Ministries, and that my image and the recordings may be disseminated in the public domain, including, but not limited to, the internet, television, radio, newspapers, mailings, emails, magazines, newsletters or other forms of communication. I hereby relinquish and waive all claims to any rights of control or ownership over said images and recordings, including, but not limited to, all copyright or other intellectual property. I also hereby fully release and discharge Releasees and the CBS leaders and all connected persons from any and all claims for invasion of privacy, conversion or misappropriation related to or arising out of the use, publication and dissemination of said images or recordings.
