OUR DREAM
Maximize MercyThe more there is of compassion, the less there will be of evil.
Our Vision is for MORE!
Minimize MalevolenceMalevolence: “Showing a wish to do evil to others.” Evil abounds, but it cannot begin to compete with the super-abounding power of compassion.
Our Vision: MORE = less!
Mobilize MOREWhereas all have sinned and fall short of God's glory, the
MAJORITY of us are inherently good, created in his image. Our Mission: Mobilize the majority for MORE!

OUR DREAM
JOIN THE REVOLUTION NOW!
I want to conclude with a radical call to action. Jesus, the embodiment of the plumb line, was a revolutionary in the purest sense of the word. There are several definitions for the word revolution, and among them are "overthrow of a ruler" and "major change–a dramatic change in ideas or practice." Jesus referred to Satan as "the prince (ruler) of this world" (John 14:30). When God calls us, He calls us to radically change our life script and join the revolution–to proactively participate in the overthrow of Satan and his legions (the prescriptive counter-punch). Notice that the letters "e-v-o-l" in revolution spell the word love backwards. His weapon of choice in this overthrow is love. Get compassionately radical and join the revolution now!
