Our Purpose
To renew the body of believer’s faith in the Bible as the answer to all their emotional and psychological needs. To educate Christians on how to respond biblically to challenges in life and how to implement biblical principles, to change ungodly habits, break strongholds, and walk in freedom from the sins which so easily beset them. To point Christians to the Bible and other biblical resources relevant to meeting their emotional, spiritual, relational and practical needs. To bring people to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of their lives.
Psalm 34:17 "The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears, And delivers them out of all their troubles"
