I. Our Purpose, Mission, Vision, and Objectives
We are Real People, in a Real World, with a Real Solution … Jesus Christ
Our Mission: to Build a Movement of Believers who Support One Another in a Growing Relationship with Jesus, Journeying Together to Discover, Embrace, Grow In, and Share the Abundant Life God has for us — which is the Best Version of Ourselves
Our Vision: to be a Modern-Day Antioch Church. The Antioch Church, as described in the Bible, is a model of a diverse, mission-oriented, and generous community. It was a central place for early Christian outreach, a symbol of unity among Believers of different backgrounds, and a key player in the establishment of the global Christian movement. The leadership of Antioch focused on teaching and worship, fellowship, sharing the Gospel, mentoring, leadership development, and church planting. They spread the Gospel and planted churches throughout the First Century world, setting a powerful example for future Christian communities.
Our Objectives: (1) 1,000 MiniChurches [small groups], 1,000 Pastors (2) Plant One Next Generation Antioch Church on Oahu (3) Partner with Four Antioch Churches in Hawaii, Japan, and Okinawa (4) Establish a Leadership Academy for Pastors, Life-Coaches, and Mentors
