We will work to strengthen churches, helping them grow so they can more effectively reach and serve their communities for Christ. These churches are often located in areas facing poverty. Equipping them with tools for sustainable ministry is essential for long-term kingdom impact.
We will expand our presence in correctional facilities to bring hope, discipleship, and leadership development to incarcerated individuals—many of whom will return to their communities as transformed Christian leaders.
We will make sound theological training more accessible around the world, addressing the urgent need for Bible-based resources in regions where they are scarce. This growth is about ensuring that pastors and leaders in underserved regions gain the biblical foundation they need to plant and lead healthy churches in their own communities.
We will deepen our trauma healing efforts so participants can actively apply biblical truth in both their personal healing journey and in those of the people they serve. In communities marked by violence, loss and generational trauma, this Bible-based transformation is foundational to spiritual and emotional restoration.
