Philosophy of Ministry


Mission statement:

Cross Impact Ministries exists for the purpose of glorifying God by equipping and supporting local churches in fulfilling the Great Commission by discipling college students world-wide with the Gospel of Christ.

Distinctives:

Local Church
Cross Impact trains, equips, and supports local churches to establish and maintain chapters both nationally and internationally.

Evangelism
The passion of Cross Impact is to reach college students with the Gospel of Jesus Christ through the life and witness of those students who have experienced God’s grace in salvation.

Discipleship
Cross Impact is committed to the Biblical process of discipleship through small-groups and life-touching-life relationships. Discipleship is the loving commitment to the spiritual maturity of another believer in helping them to grow into greater Christ-likeness and commitment to the ongoing process of multiplying disciples.

Sanctification
Cross Impact is seriously committed to helping students progress in personal sanctification through a growing passion for and obedience to God’s Word, a humble dependence on God’s grace to overcome indwelling sin, and an earnest desire for the development of Christ’s character within the life through the indwelling Spirit.

Brotherly Love
The desire of Cross Impact is to cultivate an atmosphere of brotherly love among believers who are committed to obeying Christ and loving one another. This is a powerful atmosphere developed in the context of relationships and community that draws like-minded believers into the fellowship of the saints.

Servant-Leadership
Cross Impact is committed to the development of the next generation of leaders who learn to serve humbly through the local church.

Missions
Cross Impact is burdened to establish chapters throughout the world and to participate in training workers for the harvest.
