Leaders

The core of our calling is spiritual transformation of individuals and society. This has meant, for us, working with men and women who mold the thinking and direction of the next generation.

In God’s framework, all people are “ordinary” and yet each person can be a leader in their sphere of influence! God is in the process of bringing his creation back to Himself and transforming us from bent, self-centered people into what He intended us to be. In the words of The Velveteen Rabbit, He's making us "real".

Unfortunately, leaders are often the last people to hear the message of Jesus. We want to change that and help them come to love and follow Jesus!

Clark and Ann recently came across a “Life Purpose Statement” that they wrote in 1980:

"Our purpose and calling is to change the thinking and
culture of our time by introducing the decision-makers, opinion-makers and intellectual leaders of the world
to a living relationship with Christ and establishing them
in vital and multiplying fellowships: To meet them in every area of their lives:

Intellectually - books they read; entertainment
Socially - reaching their friends; houseparties, etc.
Spiritually - relation to Christ and His Body; clear moral guidelines."

“Real isn’t how you are made,” said the Skin Horse.
“It’s a thing that happens to you. When a child
loves you for a long, long time not just to play with,
but really loves you, then you become Real.
... Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your
hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and
you get loose in the joints and very shabby.
But these things don’t matter at all, because when
you are Real you can’t be ugly, except to people
who don’t understand.”
