Project 1:8
This title comes from a verse in the Bible, Acts 1:8, where Jesus said to His followers, "But
you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you
will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem,
throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
We believe Jesus addressed these words to modern-day believers just as
He did to first century believers. Thus at LifeBridge we take seriously
His command to be involved with people in different areas so we can be
Christ's witnesses--telling them about the life God offers them through
faith in His Son Jesus Christ.
Since we don't live in the Middle East, we've adapted the locations
Jesus mentioned to our situation. Thus you'll hear us talk about our
P1:8 missions in Madison (Jerusalem), Canton (Judea), Homestead FL
(Samaria), and Haiti (the ends of the earth). We know that there are
many other areas we could be involved in, but have chosen to focus on
these four areas right now because of our "less is more" philosophy: if
we give attention and focus in a few areas, we are likely to see greater
impact than if we try to spread ourselves too thin by being involved in
many areas.
