Compelled by Christs love for Africas Unreached People Groups, TIMO exists to plant reproducing churches by training gospel-centered teams from the global church.
Compelled by Christs love
What motivates us? it is Christs love, made clear in the gospel that compels us to participate in the mission of God for his glory. And so, we train people to plant churches among the unreached. these three priorities are seared into our souls because of Christs love for us and for the unreached. There are over 900 identified unreached people groups in Africa alone. We are committed to doing whatever we can to provide access to the gospel for those who have the least opportunity of hearing the good news of Jesus Christ. This is why we exist. We are committed to the planting of new churches. to plant means to show up, to learn, work the spiritual ground, till the soil, plant the seeds, water the seeds and watch Jesus do his miracle of creating new life. We are committed to being faithful to our task of making disciples who make disciples who make disciples, and to catalyzing this work where others will carry it on. A plant that does not reproduce is a plant that is dying. We want to see churches that plant churches that plant churches. We long for gospel centered, missional communities to dot the landscape of Africa and to be a vibrant part of the global church, sent from Africa to their neighbors and to the world. Training new cross cultural workers is integral to seeing churches planted among the unreached people groups of Africa. We train new workers heads, hearts and hands to serve faithfully and effectively in the harvest field. The gospel is the center of all that we do and all that we are. We have nothing worth sharing with anyone without it. At our core, the gospel saves us, transforms us, enables us to love God and neighbor and motivates us to mission as individuals and as teams. TIMO is about teams. teamship is one of our values. A team is a small number of people with complementary gifts who are committed to each other, a common purpose, and a set of values to live by. A healthy team holds each other accountable to these commonly held beliefs. Jesus church is a global church. our team members and team leaders come from everywhere and anywhere in the world, serving together for the sake of the unreached of Africa. We are committed to forming new partnerships with people from the global church, especially among our African brothers and sisters. We are committed to serving along side and learning from all of these these global partners.
