About Zion Christian Ministries

Our Mission...

 

"To honor God and advance His Kingdom through Church Planting, Educational Ministries (Day Care, Schools, and Institutes), Leadership Seminars, FEET Evangelistic Teams, Literature Distribution, and World Mission Activities in accordance with the great commission to the Church (Matthew 24:14)"

Zion Christian Ministries and our US sponsoring organization “Global Outreach Ministries-Okinawa; Los Angeles, California”, is focused on training the next generation of Christian Leaders.  We have a 2010 Initiative to establishing a World Headquarter and open ministry centers in several nations of the world.  Your Prayers and Gifts will help us reach this objective!

Our Core Values

Our core values are a combination of principles that are mandated by our founder (Rev. James E. Whitaker) for the single purpose of advancing the mission of Christ and His church throughout the earth. Global Outreach Ministries Okinawa, Zion Christian Fellowship., Dream Big Academy Inc., Go – Zion International Evangelism Institute , Missions with a Purpose, and Whit’s End Inc. are all members if the Go-Zion Network dedicated to taking the gospel of Jesus Christ to every nation of the world. The following are the core values that will make this happen.

 

1. Commitment to Jesus
Jesus is “King of kings and Lord of lords,” therefore a commitment to Jesus is at the heart of all we do.  We believe that wholehearted submission to God’s will and His Word is the starting point of the Christian faith and the foundation of all spiritual growth. “So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him (Colossians 2:6)”.

 

2. Evangelism in our life time:
Because God’s heart is to reach the lost, we seek to build churches primarily through evangelism.  “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16)”

 

3. Discipleship of all nations
Because we are called to make disciples, our primary focus is on ministering to people. “Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. (Matt 28:19, 20)”

 

4. Leadership Development
We prioritize leadership training and deliberately create opportunities for young, potential leaders to develop their gifts. “And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others. (2 Tim 2:2) “

 

5. The Biblical view of Family
The family is the foundation of all societies; therefore we validate its priority before God as a husband and wife (man and woman) united and refuse to sacrifice marriage and children on the altars of personal opinion or secular convenience. We uphold the idea of a lifelong covenant relationship founded on love, respect and unity. (For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. 33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.(Eph 5:31-33)”
