God has called us to reach people by going directly to people outside the church. We employ strategic social ministry and utilize strategic partnerships. Our goal is to reach people wherever they are so they know Jesus and experience His Love.

God has called us to teach people His word through teaching and applying scripture and through cutting edge social tools, techniques, and media. The goal is to teach by educating people about Jesus and equipping them with potential and purpose enabled capabilities.

God has called us to lead people by educating, enhancing, and elevating their minds to know Jesus personally and achieve the higher, more abundant life that Jesus came to give them. The goal is to lead them to a place called “Better” while sowing seeds to promote a reciprocal response.

Our founders

Apostle Tonya Smallwood

A native of Indianapolis, Indiana, Tonya is the first child of Fred and Loretta Jackson. She has an awesomely divine purpose to change the atmosphere and be a voice and light in the kingdom of God! Baptized at the young age of ten, Tonya heard God's call and chose to follow Him.

The late senior Elder Jerry Smallwood

Elder Jerry L. Smallwood was born in Washington, D.C., and raised in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area with six siblings. As a young teenager, he came to know God and proclaimed God as his Lord and Savior. He was baptized and confirmed in the Catholic faith as a young man and served as an Elder and Eucharistic Minister. He later became affiliated with the Baptist faith and ultimately found the non-denominational evangelical environment more suited to the effective use of his God-given talents.
