Church is calling Heaven down to earth

We are inspired and compelled to bring the supernatural reality of the Kingdom of God to the world around us.

When the crowds heard Philip and saw the signs he performed, they all paid close attention to what he said. For with shrieks, impure spirits came out of many, and many who were paralyzed or lame were healed. So there was great joy in that city… But when they believed Philip as he proclaimed the good news of the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. Acts 8:6-8,12

Because God is with us and we are all carriers of Holy Spirit; we can represent Him everywhere we are. We are able to demonstrate the reality of the Kingdom of God through healing, prophetic, compassion, and miracles.

Church is praying in faith and authority

We pray in faith and in authority and see the impossible happen. Our prayers matter.

The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.  Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years.  Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops. James 5:16-18

Again I tell you truly, that if two of you on the earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by My Father in heaven. For where two or three gather together in My Name, there am I with them. Matthew 18:19-20

This, then, is how you should pray: our Father in heaven, hallowed by your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Matthew 6:10.

We believe in the power of prayer. We believe that when we join our prayers with God’s heart, breakthroughs happen. We are known worldwide as a group of people whose prayers make God famous. We pray with confidence knowing that God hears us, agrees with us, and decrees positive outcomes.

Church is being faithful to our calling

We are passionate about our mission and committed to helping fulfill our vision.

Where there is no revelation/vision, people cast off restraint; but blessed is the one who heeds wisdom’s instruction. Proverbs 29:18

We exist to continually encounter God’s presence, leading people in transformation so we can bring the Kingdom of God to our city and the world. Clear vision drives purpose. When we know who we are and where we are going, we are to be focused, determined, and prioritize what God has mandated us to do. We don’t need to do everything as God has other churches for other priorities. We want to be faithful to our calling as a church to help people encounter God’s transforming presence.

Church is leading the global church

We are pioneers and standard-bearers within our wider movement; leading and supporting the expansion and excellence of our global family.

Now in the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers… While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.” So after they had fasted and prayed, they placed their hands on them and sent them off. Acts 13:1-3

Throughout church history, there have been Antioch-style churches that are resource churches to newer, small, and developing congregations. Catch The Fire has this mantle on us which we embrace. We seek to start new churches, new ministries, new initiatives, as well as set the pace for our amazing large church movement called Catch The Fire Partners.

Church is living based on Biblical principles

We produce rich and engaging teaching where everyone is a student and knows how to live their life based on biblical principles.

Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15

The Bible is God’s revelation. By studying the Word of the Lord, we gain wisdom and understand how to live in every facet of society. The Bible is absolute truth. Our sermons, teaching series, etc., seek to share His truth rather than us trying to share man’s wisdom.

Church is gathering to worship God

We host thousands of people from around the world who are hungry to experience more of God and grow in their walks with God.

News about Jesus spread all over Syria…. large crowds from Galilee, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea and the region across the Jordan followed him. Matthew 4:24-25

We desire to be at the forefront of churches where people can experience God’s transforming presence. Through live in-person and online events, we desire to be a place where everyone can meet Jesus as saviour, know God as their Father, and have a friendship with Holy Spirit.

Church is impacting the world through tech and media

We harness technology and media with excellence to impact people within our church and those far afield.

Cain was then building a city, and he named it after his son Enoch. Genesis 4:17

Throughout the Bible, we see that God has given blueprints for advancement and innovation. Cain built a city, Solomon built a temple, etc. We seek to be at the forefront as a church using technology and media to enhance the Kingdom of God. We are not afraid to invest in new equipment to enhance our ability to reach people better.

Church is creatively expressing the nature of God

We are creative people, pushing the boundaries of innovation and artistry to freshly express the nature of God.

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. Genesis 1:1-3

Father God is the master of creativity, innovation, design, etc. As we partner with the Spirit of God, we receive ideas that allow us to express the heart of God and to bring disruptive and powerful change to all facets of our world. As a church, we celebrate that God is constantly giving His followers revelation to express His glory and greatness.
