MISSION: To tear down walls of injustice, hatred and violence by
uniting the body of Christ with World Changing Events and Ongoing
Evangelism.
WHAT IS SHOUT?: Shout is ministry with two distinct
functions. It is an Event Ministry as well as an Outreach Evangelism
Ministry. A common thread in everything we do is our quest for unity
within the body of Christ. The book of Acts is a major inspiration for
this spirit of unity. They shared everything in common and therefore
advance the kingdom of God efficiently and effectively (Acts 4:32). We
believe that when the body of Christ comes together in love, regardless
of our differences in cultural background, denomination or generational
gaps, we become a brighter light (Matt.5:13) and God can use us to
change the world!
WORLD CHANGING EVENTS: Uniting the Body of Christ
with Christ centered events is a powerful tool for ministry. We have
organized summer basketball tournaments (hoopin’ 4 Jesus), Poetry
events and Music concerts. Every event that we host raises money for
local ministries. We also hope to share the message of Jesus Christ in
unconventional ways that are relevant to the times we live in. We are
intentional about where our events are held. Taking the gospel in
neighborhoods that have negative reputations for violence or drug
activity is God’s way of breaking the enemy’s camp. We believe that
where the spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty. We want to release
that spirit where it is most needed.
ONGOING EVANGELISM: Jesus Christ
is our example of how to reach a dieing generation, and it isn’t by
staying in the 4 walls of a church building and hoping they will come
to us. Christ said, “…I am sending you out as lambs among wolves.” Luke
10:3 We understand that this is a great commission of the redeemed.
During the summer months, we organize prayer and evangelism walks
starting from different churches each Sunday. As we walk, we pray for
our city and offer Christ to the people we meet. We also host weekly
bible fellowships in homes and have a prayer hotline available for
anyone in need of it.
