Alliance Ministries' Vision is to see God’s people actively advancing His Kingdom on earth, "unlocking eternal impact by helping people discover their place in God’s story, and then to live out their calling right where He has placed them.” We live in a time of unprecedented challenges for our culture – Rising poverty levels, broken marriages and families, addictions, dissatisfaction with the church. At a time in which our world needs a vibrant, life-giving message and ministry from God’s people, it seems the body of Christ has become dormant. In recent research, the Barna Group cited the following: -- Believers are becoming more ingrown and less outreach-oriented. -- Growing numbers of people are less interested in spiritual principles and more desirous to learn pragmatic solutions for life. -- The influence of Christ-followers on the culture and individual lives is largely invisible. Yet Jesus said, “You are the salt of the earth. You are the light of the world.” Salt is a preserver of life. Light is an illuminator. We are to show our communities what Jesus is really like. Apart from grace and the unconditional love and forgiveness of God we are without hope. Followers of Jesus are to communicate this grace both in words and deeds within their families, their work, their community and their church. Imagine, if you will, whole and healthy families; decreased poverty and crime; individual lives and entire communities healed and restored; people coming to Christ as they are intrigued to see believers loving and serving one another. By God’s grace, Alliance Ministries is redefining the mobilization-- reinvigorating churches and revitalizing communities. We are equipping ordinary people for God’s extraordinary assignments. Together, we will have a clear biblical worldview, will recognize the call God has on each of our lives, and discover a path to engagement, creating a movement to influence the culture and make our communities a better place.
