Our Mission...
The Mission of Believers in America® is based on 1 Corinthians 12:7(The Message):
God's various gifts are handed out everywhere; but they all originate in God's Spirit. God's various ministries are carried out everywhere; but they all originate in God's Spirit. God's various expressions of power are in action everywhere; but God Himself is behind it all. Each person is given something to do that shows who God is: Everyone gets in on it, everyone benefits. All kinds of things are handed out by the Spirit, and to all kinds of people! The variety is wonderful.
(1 Cor. 12:7 The Message)
Believers in America® endeavors to promote your success, the kind of success that the
Apostle Paul wrote about in 1 Corinthians 1:4-8:
I can never stop thanking God for all the generous gifts He has given you, now that you belong to Christ Jesus. He has enriched your church with the gifts of eloquence and every kind of knowledge. This shows that what I told you about Christ is true. Now you have every spiritual gift you need as you eagerly wait for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ.
He will keep you strong right up to the end...(1 Cor. 1:4-8)
• Success means... learning to thank God for the generous gifts given to you.
• Success means... knowing you belong to Christ.
• Success means... understanding that you have been enriched with gifts and knowledge.
• Success means... using those gifts to advance His kingdom here on earth.

Statement of Faith
What We Believe:
We believe the entire Bible is the inspired Word of God and that men were moved by the Spirit of God to write the words of Scripture. Therefore, we believe the Bible in its entirety is without error.
We believe in one God Who exists in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe that Jesus Christ is the second member of the Trinity (the Son of God) Who became flesh to reveal God to man and to become the Savior of the world.
We believe that mankind was created in the image of God to have fellowship with Him, but became alienated in that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, man is totally incapable of regaining a right relationship with God through his own effort.
We believe that the blood of Jesus Christ, shed on the cross, provides the sole basis for the forgiveness of sin. Therefore, salvation occurs only when a person places his or her faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as the sufficient payment for his or her sin.
We believe that every Christian should live for Christ and not just for him or herself. There is a higher purpose. By obedience to the Word of God and daily yielding to the Spirit of God, every believer matures and becomes conformed
to the image of Christ. That is true success and fulfillment.
We believe that the church is the body of Christ, of which Jesus Christ is the head. The members of the church are those who have trusted by faith the finished work of Christ. The purpose of the church is to glorify God by loving Him and by making Him known to the unbelieving world. That includes the business world as well.
Our Purpose in Business is to Glorify God.
So whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. (1 Corinthians 10:31 NIV) ...that you may declare the praises of Him. (1 Peter 2:9 NIV)
And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to
God the Father through Him. (Colossians 3:17 NIV)
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know
that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. (Colossians 3:23-24 NIV)
