In response to God's call, our African-American Outreach team endeavors to impact and influence the African American family with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and to do so intentionally through relationships with the local pastor, the church and the community.
From our own experience, we understand the needs of African-American pastors and want to impact attitudes and culture by effectively using the various media at our disposal, and to improve our own skills and abilities to speak in the context of the African-American community.
We highly encourage you to read The Heart of a Great Pastor to illuminate many of the issues you may be experiencing now in your ministry.
In our efforts to intentionally reach the African-American pastor and his or her family, we often host our own pastors gatherings and share in conference sponsorships for major non-Focus events. We hope to see you as we canvas our nation this year.
We are here to help you and stand beside you. If you need encouragement or an ear to listen, please contact our toll-free Pastoral Care Line at (877) 233-4455.
This is a Code Blue! The next generation is in trouble. But the church and all of God's people can emerge as the paramedics and ambulance in response if we act! [ more ]
