Resources
To provide resources to inspire, equip, and support Christians in their engagement with the public realm.
Our methodology
To make all this happen we organize networking and learning events; provide mentorship and training to upcoming Christian leaders; connect those leaders with opportunities in their community and support them in achieving them; encourage Christians to contribute to all forms of media; and develop a truly ecumenical network of Christians who want to engage in the public square.
Our values
1 The Great Commission
Jesus commanded us to make disciples, and he told us how in the Sermon on the Mount: “Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.” - Matthew 5:16
2 Christians are called to Leadership
We can shine our light to many when we lead, and the Word of God tells us that it is good for everyone when Christians are leading: “When the godly are in authority, the people rejoice. But when the wicked are in power, they groan.” - Proverbs 29:2
3 Servant Leadership
Jesus modelled how we should lead through service, and we want to follow Him in this example: “Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.” - John 13:14-17
4 We want you to win
Whatever God has called you to do in His Kingdom, we want to support you in that goal. We are called to support each other in the Body of Christ: "Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers." - Galatians 6:10
5 Prayer and Action
We are called to pray and listen to God, but then to put God’s will into action: “…faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.” - James 2:17-18
