Reaching lost souls / being there for hurting people / making a difference
This is just the beginning! In Isaiah 60, the Bible tells us that we are God's chosen people. It also tells us that as time goes on the world will become darker and darker. And our response to this is not to picket, scream, or argue Jesus into the darkness. He calls us to RISE up and RISE ABOVE this world with the love of Jesus. As we RISE the light that is in us will drive out the darkness. This is where the name “RISE ABOVE” derives its meaning as well as Isaiah 40:31. Our mission is to develop people who love God and give them every possibility to RISE up in their own communities, neighborhoods, and personal worlds so that the light of Jesus is carried to the ends of the earth.
