About Purpose Driven Ministries

  

 Purpose Driven Ministries is a Jesus-centered community dedicated to proclaiming the good news of Jesus and cultivating transformative leadership for God’s Kingdom. We equip believers and organizations through Christian leadership training, coaching, spiritual direction, and pastoral counseling—empowering followers of Jesus to grow as disciples, share their faith, and extend Jesus’ message of hope and salvation to their families, churches, workplaces, and communities.


Guided by values rooted in the life and teachings of Jesus, Purpose Driven Ministries is committed to gospel-centered living, evangelism, biblical authority, prayerful dependence, Jesus-like servanthood, authentic community, Spirit-led transformation, integrity, excellence, and compassionate outreach. Everything we do is shaped by the conviction that lives are changed through the power of the Gospel message and the ministry of the Holy Spirit. Our vision is to nurture a movement of leaders who boldly advance the Kingdom, share the good news of Jesus, and serve with love and integrity in every sphere of influence for Him.

Statement of Faith

  We believe in one God, the Creator and Ruler of all, revealed as Father, Son (Jesus), and Holy Spirit—who are equal in power, glory, and majesty (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14; Genesis 1:1.)

We believe that the greatest commandments Jesus gave us are to love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, and to love our neighbors as ourselves. These commandments summarize all of God’s law and manifest His Kingdom purposes on earth (Mark 12:29–31; Matthew 22:37–39; Luke 10:27.)

We believe that God’s Kingdom is a present reality and a future hope, where Jesus reigns as King over all creation, and His reign is advanced through the proclamation of the gospel and the transformation of lives empowered by His Spirit (Matthew 6:33; Luke 17:20–21; Revelation 11:15; Colossians 1:13–14.)

We believe salvation is a gift from God for the whole world through faith in Jesus—the Son of God who lived sinlessly, died for our sins, rose from the dead, and ascended to reign. All who repent and believe are reconciled to God and receive new life (John 3:16; Romans 10:9–10; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4; Ephesians 2:8–9; Acts 4:12.)

We believe the Bible is the inspired and authoritative Word of God, our final rule for faith and practice (2 Timothy 3:16–17; Psalm 119:105; Hebrews 4:12.)

We believe that through the Holy Spirit’s power we can live out our faith through loving God, serving others, and sharing Jesus’ message of grace and truth until He returns in glory to establish His eternal Kingdom (Galatians 5:22–25; John 13:34–35; Acts 1:8; Titus 2:13.)
