We were birthed out of a mandate given to our founder Lydia; to plant a church that would reach the lost (unchurched), build his body (discipleship), and to equip the saints. Once the lost are reached and accept Christ (salvation) they are encouraged to go past what traditional church provides into the deeper relationship with Jesus Christ and the fullness of the indwelling power of the Holy Ghost.
For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. Isaiah 57:15
