Equip & Engage
We are dedicated to ENGAGING the curious and EQUIPPING the follower
so that people find their way to God through Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Discipleship Values:
-
Proclamation
We share biblical truth with people, whether in one-on-one discipleship, small group settings, coffee shops, or jails. We communicate the relevance of God's Word, making eternal truths applicable to people's lives, inviting honest questions and fostering genuine, lasting understanding of faith.
-
Freedom
We provide safe spaces for individuals to acknowledge and confront their need for a Savior. Walking alongside them as they seek to know Jesus, we offer prayer, biblical counsel, and the power of the Holy Spirit to help people find freedom from bondage and discover new life in Christ.
-
Growth
We aim to help followers grow in their understanding of what it means to be Jesus' disciple. We connect with anyone, anywhere — through one-on-one meetings, email, or video chats — to assist them in their spiritual growth, deepening their walk with Christ and strengthening their faith.
-
Multiplication
We help growing believers understand that Jesus has commissioned them to be "sent" into the world. We model what discipleship looks like in the life of the maturing follower of Christ, so they can go and do likewise — sharing new life in Jesus, building up others, and sending them out.
-
Partnership
Like threads in the hands of a skilled weaver, God brings together people from different backgrounds to partner with us. For thirty years, our ministry has been sustained by a small group of committed individuals who understand what we do, why we do it, and feel called to join us.
-
Community
We believe that life change happens best in the context of authentic relationships. Our approach is relational, conversational, and relevant — meeting people in everyday spaces and building genuine connections that point them toward Christ no matter where they are on their faith journey.
