Our residents come to us from referrals, the streets, or prison. The residential community's purpose is to teach fundamental biblical principles such as obedience, prayer, stewardship, forgiveness, Spirit-controlled living, brotherly love and service. These outward behaviors are evidence of a heart transformed by the indwelling Christ starting at spiritual birth and nourished by a daily discipline of obedience to the Word of God.
