Tithe
Biblically speaking, tithe comes from two concepts: tax and offering. Tax is the support for that “branch” of the kingdom which has edified you in your growth and sanctification. If this be the home church, then give your tax there. If this be some other group or organization, then give your tax there. It isContinue reading “Tithe”
Multiplication
Church planting is known as multiplication. When we are the church, it is multiplication of ourselves acting as the church which results in multiplication. Thus, church planting is not an organizational effort, but a family effort sent out by the church community to reach those in the place God is calling them to next.

Adoration
Worship in its fullest will include all spectrum of emotion. Our adoration for God is not complete until we are willing to be completely exposed to him. As our comfort level within the church grows, we will slowly become willing to expose those emotions for God within the trust of the church group. We acknowledgeContinue reading “Adoration”
Mentoring
Mentoring, not Discipleship. Mentoring is the growth a mentor encourages in the direction that the mentee chooses.

The true essence of a church community is sharing ourselves for the edification of each other as we seek God and he sanctifies us. Within the time of worship, sharing is exposing our hopes, our fears, ourContinue reading “Sharing”
Teaching
Teaching – We believe that teaching consists of both lecture and discussion. However, lecture, with its original meaning being “to read’ is 80% reading of Scripture. Scribes and priests would read Scripture to the audience. Scripture is our source of “lecture” as it provides us with content and direction. Scripture controls our thought process. TheContinue reading “Teaching”
Course: Teach Kids To Read
We have developed a teacher training curriculum and were able to host training sessions for teachers and educational personnel about new techniques of teaching how to read. We believe this will empower teachers in classrooms to teach more effectively.
School Bus Initiative
The focus of our last quarter has been working with local groups to improve bus networks. We believe that it is vital to provide transportation options for children living in rural areas. Thanks to our donors we were able to fund 50 buses and 200 cars that transport children to schools all around the globe.
