ABOUT SHEPHERD PROJECT

DIGGING DEEP

The Shepherd Project is a Christian equipping ministry, dedicated to helping individual Christians and Christian organizations dig deep into truth and reach wide into the world.

We know that living in the world as Jesus intends us to requires a thorough understanding of God, a constant evaluation of culture, creativity and contagious passion.

Through speakers, worship artists, conferences and resource production we seek to inspire and equip followers of Jesus to live radically.

Statement of Faith

Jesus of Nazareth is God's only son, fully divine and fully human, incarnated as an infant and growing up as a man in first century Israel. He lived a perfect life, died as a sacrifice for our sin and rose bodily from the dead three days later. By personally trusting in Jesus and his sacrifice for us, we are set free from death and darkness and made participants in God's now-and-coming Kingdom. We know this because God's inspired word, the Bible, properly interpreted, is fully accurate in all that it reports and teaches.
