Our Christ-Centered and Spirit-Empowered Foundation
The MOR Declaration
The Ministry of Reconciliation is called to operate under the authority of Jesus Christ and through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Our Calling
Be reconciled to God.
“God… has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation.”
2 Corinthians 5:18The Ministry of Reconciliation is called to operate under the authority of Jesus Christ and through the power of the Holy Spirit. We proclaim the gospel, call people to repentance and faith, minister healing to the broken, promote forgiveness and restoration, demonstrate the love of God, and serve as ambassadors through whom God appeals to the world: “Be reconciled to God.”
The Ministry of Reconciliation is God’s work of restoring sinful humanity to fellowship with Himself through Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit carries that ministry into the hearts of people and empowers believers to proclaim it to the world.
