OUR VISION FOR CENTRAL ILLINOIS & BEYOND
Our vision is to help ignite a fire of revival such as has never been seen before. We believe that this process can
be accomplished by doing the following:
1. By preaching the uncompromised Word of God, devoid of church doctrice
and man's interpretation.
2. By training up the saints to do the work of the Kingdom, equipping them through having
a Spirit-Filled Bible College in central Illinois.
3. By having a quarterly publication that is able to spread
the Gospel around the world.
4. By networking with other ministries to bring the best men and women of God to
the central Illinois area.
5. By planting churches and equipping them with men and women who have a heart for
servanthood and who understand Divine Order.
6. By teaching that all are called, and that everyone has a ministry
in the world in which they live.
