The Associated Gospel Churches is an evangelical organization that endorses chaplains for the military branches, federal agencies, and hospitals. It is gospel-focused, proclaiming the life, death, burial, and ascension of Jesus Christ. While accountable to local churches, it is independent and does not belong to any denominational authority. The AGC defends fundamental Christian doctrines like the virgin birth, atonement, resurrection, second coming, and biblical inspiration. Chaplains seek to serve all personnel but cannot perform tasks against their convictions. The AGC recruits chaplains, provides ministry updates to prayer partners, and honors the privacy of chaplains and partners.
