Mission Alive is driven by four core convictions. These convictions inform both what Mission Alive does and how we do it. We hold these convictions based on research and over 20 years of experience in ministry and church planting. Each conviction has either multiple examples, research data, or both to validate its truthfulness. Our four convictions are:
God is still radically transforming human lives through Jesus.
North American culture has all but entirely rejected organized religion – especially Christianity.
On average, North American churches invest 90% of their human and financial resources on themselves, that is, to support the church.
If Christians and churches will invest in making their community better, not only will they imitate Jesus but their unbelieving neighbors will pay attention.
In the coming weeks we will expand on each of these convictions help our Mission Alive community understand more clearly why we do what we do. Stay tuned.
