TEARS Vision:
To glorify God through church planting, equipping, and connecting churches and individuals to engage in evangelism/ discipleship and ministering to human need.
The Big Picture:
God created man with the chief end to “glorify Him and enjoy Him forever!” But man rebelled and creation was subjected to bondage in the fall of Adam. Yet, God so loved us that He burst back onto the world scene in Jesus Christ, fully God and fully Man, to seek, rescue and restore man and all of creation to Himself. In doing so God chose to establish the church / the body of Christ to declare His glory and wonderful deeds amongst the nations and become a visible manifestation of His kingdom. Therefore the church has the joyous privilege and responsibility of proclaiming the good news of God’s saving grace “The Gospel”, beckoning and teaching the nations to worship God. Thus “The Gospel”, proclaimed and lived out by the church is the means by which God will re-establish His highest value, over all other values in the earth, His glory. This is God’s primary mission. The fruit of His mission is that we are restored into a right relationship with Him, and enabled to enjoy Him, His grace and all His benefits eternally. Consequently, it is the festive opportunity of the body of Christ to become His visible hands and feet in dynamic worship, reflecting Christ in every community, city and nation of the world so that once again all creation will worship and enjoy Him forever!
