God’s People on the Margins
I will be Your God and You will be my People.
For much of its existence, Christianity has been a unique and distinct minority among other more dominant, surrounding cultures.
It is often from a position of 'powerlessness' that the Church has seen its most significant growth and Kingdom advance.
Our work is focused on Christian endurance in the midst of competing cultural narratives.
