Matt Whitlock's Podcast

We are determined to live out the goodness of God on Earth.

Who are we? We are game-changers, play-makers, box-breakers, and risk-

takers. We are a global family of visionary practitioners, poets, preachers and

pioneers. We are sons and daughters. We are blessed to be a blessing, loved to

be lovers, freed to be liberators, and called to rise above the status quo. We are

a family of missionary servants.

And this is what we believe: Every follower of Jesus, by default, is part of

God’s trajectory of restoration. This mission requires active participation as we

become the incarnation of love in a broken world. Being fully equipped by the

Holy Spirit, we are united with one purpose expressed in infinitely diverse

vocations. We are convinced God’s mission is simple, collaborative, and within arms reach.

So this is how we choose to live: We embrace inconvenience, listen deeply,

honor all, and live generously. We focus our energy locally yet still engage

globally. We open our hearts, homes, and lives to all people in courageous acts

of hospitality. When we gather we eat well, we pray expectantly, and we learn

scripture. We will leave our communities better than we found them. We will

promote peace, pursue unity and protect the vulnerable. Last but not least we

seek God’s kingdom before our own.

We hereby declare a new era in which these are our defining characteristics. An

era in which we will shape culture together as an unstoppable surge of ordinary

people. Through faithful presence and collaborative obedience we will see God’s

kingdom come here and now.

We are a global family of lifestyle missionaries.

If mission is a part of God's character then it's less about a change of location and more about a change of our heart. Since we're already where we need to be let's join the mission of Jesus, together!
