“Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek your face, God of Jacob.” (Psalm 24:6)
WHO WE ARE
We are ministers of the gospel of Jesus Christ that have faced setbacks, adversity, and opposition in advancing the Gospel of Christ.
“We had previously suffered and had been treated outrageously in Philippi, as you know, but with the help of our God we dared to tell you his gospel in the face of strong opposition.” (1 Thessalonians 2:2)
“It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of good will.” (Philippians 1:15)
“And because of my chains, most of the brothers and sisters have become confident in the Lord and dare all the more to proclaim the gospel without fear.” (Philippians 1:14)
We empathize with the plight of disenfranchised Christians
“In the first place, I hear that when you come together as a Church, there are divisions among you, and to some extent I believe it.” (1 Corinthians 11:18)
“…….Is it possible that there is nobody among you wise enough to judge a dispute between believers? But instead, one brother takes another to court, and this in front of unbelievers.” (1 Corinthians 6:5b – 6)
“If you show special attention to the man wearing fine clothes and say, Here’s a good seat for you, but say to the poor man, you stand there or sit on the floor by my feet, have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts.” (James 2:3-4)
“When he came to Jerusalem, he tried to join the disciples, but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he really was a disciple. But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles. He told them how Saul on his journey had seen the Lord and that the Lord had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had preached fearlessly in the name of Jesus.” (Acts 9:26-27)
We are Real People that have discovered a Real God that loves us and desires a personal relationship with us in spite of our failures
“Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners of whom I am the worst. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his unlimited patience as an example for those who would believe on him and receive eternal life.” (1 Timothy 1:15-16)
“Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with him we will also live with him: If we endure we will also reign with him. If we disown him he will also disown us. If we are faithless he will remain faithful, for he cannot disown himself.” (2 Timothy 2:11-13)
“For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.” (John 3:17)
Because we are forgiven, we choose FORGIVENESS
“Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.” (Ephesians 4:32)
“Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.” (Colossians 3:13)
“For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.” (Matthew 6:14)
Because we are loved, we choose LOVE
“But God demonstrates His own love toward us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)
“Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates a brother or sister is still in the darkness. Anyone who loves their brother and sister lives in the light, and there is nothing in them to make them stumble.” (1 John 1:9-10)
“This is love; not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.” (1 John 4:10-11)
“But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions, it is by grace you have been saved.” (Ephesians 2:4-5)
Because we are shown grace, we choose GRACE
“Even though I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent man, I was shown mercy because I acted in ignorance and unbelief. The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.” (1 Timothy 1:13-14)
The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased grace increased all the more, so that just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 5:20-21)
“For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are, yet he did not sin. Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.” (Hebrews 4:15-16)

WHERE WE ARE COMING FROM
The Bible is our source of preaching, teaching and inspiration
“All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness: so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
We believe the Gospel is the source and power of life transformation
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.” (Romans 1:16)
The Head of the Church is Christ
“And He put all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.” (Ephesians 1:22-23)
The Church plays a key strategic role in delivering the Gospel to the entire world
“To me, the very least of all the saints, this grace was given to preach to the Gentiles the unfathomable riches of Christ and to bring to light what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God who created all things; so that the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known through the church to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly places.” (Ephesians 3: 8-10)
Christ gave Himself up for the Church. We shall never give up on her.
“Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her.” (Ephesians 5:25)
God formed us and made us to give Him Glory
“But now, thus says the Lord, your Creator, O Jacob, And He who formed you, O Israel, Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are Mine!” (Isaiah 43:1)
“The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; for he founded it on the seas and established it on the waters.” (Psalm 24:1-2)
Outward Obedience requires a new heart
“And I will give them one heart and put a new spirit within them. And I will take the heart of stone out of their flesh and give them a heart of flesh, that they may walk in My statues and keep My ordinances and do them. Then they will be My people, and I shall be their God.” (Ezekiel 11:19-20)
Every Christian is a Minister
“But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.” (1 Corinthians 12:7)
WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO
We are compelled to preach the Gospel.
“For when I preach the gospel, I cannot boast, since I am compelled to preach. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!” (1 Corinthians 9:16)
“How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher? How will they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written, how beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news of good things!” (Romans 10:14-15)
We sense the Holy Spirit urging us to Proclamation rather than silence
“One night the Lord spoke to Paul in a vision: Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent.” (Acts 18:9)
We trust God’s guidance to lead us whenever and wherever, to whoever God Pleases
“When he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go into Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.” (Acts 16:10)
We feel called to attend to the needs of “The local Church.”
“From Troas we put out to sea and sailed straight for Samothrace, and the next day we went on to Neapolis. From there we traveled to Philippi, a Roman colony and the leading city of the district of Macedonia, and we stayed there several days.” (Acts 16:11-12)
Our Ministry model helps us to address issues and topics that are difficult for the local Church.
“Don’t have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels.” (2 Timothy 2:23)
“Opponents must be gently instructed, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to knowledge of the truth, and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil, who has taken them captive to do his will.” (2 Timothy 2:25-26)
“Alexander the metalworker did me a great deal of harm. The Lord will repay him for what he has done. You too should be on your guard against him, because he strongly opposed our message.” (2 Timothy 4:14-15)
