We’re a group of friends on a journey. We're looking for a “city ... whose builder and maker is God,”a Kingdom-shaped church rather than a church-shrunk kingdom.
Jesus envisioned a prevailing church birthed on the revelation of His Kingship and glory; the ekklesia – the cabinet of the King – enthused and enlarged by a vision of the Kingdom of God. We're given to follow the King; to see His Kingdom come.
The goal is nothing less than cooperating with the Head of the Church, the Lord of the Harvest, as He sows the “sons of the Kingdom” into every neighbourhood, niche of society and nation on planet earth with one overarching Kingdom purpose: to make disciple-makers.
Yes, disciple-makers, not followers of “our way” but followers of His way; an uprising of a nameless, grassroots army of Christ-followers who make disciples who make disciples … who make disciples.
We’re ruined for anything less. Is there a cost? Absolutely! To our pride? For sure! To our egos? Without question! Is it worth it? He is so worth it! We’re ruined and we’re glad!
