The BRAVE Mission

Through the local church and a national ministry, Pastor Jeff preaches the Word to develop BRAVE disciples who abide and thrive together in Christ. At the heart of this vision is to prepare men, propel pastors and plant churches. Seeing these leaders and pastors own their identity, grow in their faith and live on mission by sharing the Gospel message of Jesus Christ around the world.

Preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience and instruction. 2 Timothy 4:2

Prepare Men

So that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:17

Propel Pastors

The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also. 2 Timothy 2:2

Plant Churches

Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Matthew 28:19-20
