Cultivating a Prophetic Imagination
How do we live a life that truly reflects Jesus's call to follow him? This means diving deep into discipleship and teaching about how to live counter-culturally.
This focus on Prophetic Imagination grew directly out of our ongoing work with housing justice and other social issues. We have seen firsthand how structural challenges often paralyze communities, due in part to a profound lack of imagination for truly transformative, equitable solutions. In 2026, we want to lean into the abundance of the Gospel, serving a God for whom more is always possible. We will continue to engage deeply with housing justice and critical social issues, building a foundation where every action flows from this profound biblical call to be just and generous in all things.
