The Storm Team

Matthew 16:18- And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the Gates of Hades will not overcome it." Jesus said that the gates of hell could not overcome His church. Gates have always been a defensive measure. Our group is designed to go out and "storm" the gates. We are unsatisfied without miraculous healings, signs, and whatever wonders God may bring. We are unsatisfied without seeing salvations First and Foremost. We WON'T be picketing, and soapbox preaching... Anything along those lines. Rather, we will go where we KNOW God wants us. Hospitals, Jails.. Treasure Hunts, yes, but even then we won't go without complete faith that God is indeed leading us to a specific place on a specific day. We won't be going alone either. We'll team up alongside other, current ministries from other churches until we've gotten our feet wet. Remember: Jesus said: Therefore "GO" and make disciples of all the nations,...". "Go" does not mean wait for the lost and the broken to come to us. So join us as we seek the Kingdom together, and do all we can to announce that Kingdom to be At Hand. We intend to make it fun, and to do away with as much awkwardness as possible... in the end creating a group of individuals who LIVE ministry, evangelism, and the Kingdom of God
