Encounter

The Person, Presence, and Word of God is everything to us. We are committed to exalting Jesus together every day. Our mission and training activities are centred around prayer and worship. We create space to love Jesus wildly, surrender our all to Him, and burn with a desire for His presence.

Equip

We are training a generation to passionately and wholeheartedly follow Jesus, using their talents and skills to fulfil His command to go into all the world (Matthew 28:19).

Our onsite training forum, the University of the Nation (UofN), enables students to be immersed in world-class teaching preparing them for global service in a multitude of ways. From basic discipleship to leadership, hospitality, worship and prayer, communication, medical mission, media and much more, we offer a wide range of opportunities to be equipped to serve.

Tauranga is the farthest city* on earth from Jerusalem. We take being the “uttermost parts” of the earth seriously. Our mandate is to be a launching pad for a generation to be sent into all the world. Our heart’s cry is for Jesus to be exalted in every nation, among every people, and in every language. It’s our great joy to go and to make Him known in every way possible. Jesus’ compassion for the least, the last, and the lost to know Him has become ours. From large urban centres to remote hill tribes, to the isolated islands, we only have one option – we must go!

Apocalyptic literature uses symbols and imagery meant to inspire hope in times of oppression and disparity. It shows God and his people as the ultimate victors and peels back the layers to show God’s perfect leadership through every trial and persecution.⁠
⁠
Some key aspects of apocalyptic literature are the startling imagery that calls the reader to pay attention and listen. It uses symbols and and images to convey hope for the future. There are consistent images meant to inspire the people to persevere for the future God has for them. ⁠

PT.11 Literary Styles ⁠
⁠
Wisdom literature is primarily short statements of truth for common and general rules of life. The books of Proverbs and Ecclesiastes contain many such sayings that deal with a variety of aspects of daily living that can be used as a general guide, they bring practically to the law and make wisdom accessible for everyone. ⁠
⁠
They showcase the collected wisdom of generations of godly people and invite us to consider the tension of complexity and simplicity of living wisely.⁠
⁠
 Proverbs shows us that anyone can access wisdom and enjoy the gifts that it freely offers.⁠
⁠
Ecclesiastes points out that there are is very little within our control. So we should appreciate what we have been given—good food, friends, and community. ⁠
⁠
In Job we see that even though individual humans are a small part of the universe, our problems are still important to God, and we can trust him to care for his people. ⁠
⁠
Together, these books are full of wisdom and show us the meaning of life, to live wisely and fear God.⁠
⁠
Examples of wisdom literature are Proverbs, Job, and Ecclesiastes.⁠
