Acts 2:42, ESV, 'And they devoted themselves to the apostles teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.'
The What: Poiema Ministries is a soul center gathering to offer FELLOWSHIP, which will endeavor to encourage relationships of brother to brother and sister to sister in order to encourage and challenge one another in our walk with Christ; while also providing the biblical call to encourage those who are deeper in the faith to serve as spiritual fathers and mothers to those who are new believers or pre-believers. We also seek to provide strong, biblical TEACHINGS so spiritual growth will occur, challenging each of us to move toward a deeper relationship with God, and a stronger reliance on the Holy Spirit for guidance in our daily walk. We also hope to be purveyors of RECOVERY and RESTORATION for the broken-hearted, as this was the very essence of the ministry of Christ on earth.
The Who: Who do we hope to reach with the What? Initially, there are three main populations we wish to target:
- The Nones - These are those who have had no church or Christian background in their lives. They may never enter a church service until they meet someone who will be the hands, feet and mouthpiece of Christ, helping them discover who He is as Savior and Lord. Our ministry will provide grace to woo them to Him, and truth to convict them of their need for Him.
- The Dones - The failures of organized Christianity have given rise to many who desire growth in their faith, but choose to practice it outside the traditional bounds of the local church. They need brothers and sisters in Christ who will answer the "one another" needs of their walk with Christ; "love one another"" "encourage one another", etc.
- The "On the Runs" - While every community has those that fit in this category, a place like Traverse City has more than most. Traverse City is a strong tourist destination. This places a heavy burden on a large group of service workers for Sunday labor. Many cannot attend traditional church services due to their work week including weekends, especially in the summer months. Poiema Soul Center hopes to provide a place for those in need of spiritual connection who cannot attend traditional church services.
