Our Theological Rationale
We hold these spiritual mandates to be biblically evident:
 
  • The church neglects Her power when She becomes lukewarm, fruitless, and dysfunctional;
  • God continues to call individuals and groups into being for apostolic ministries to identify, equip, and unleash the saints and their gifts for ministry;
  • God's purposes extend beyond the local church to create communities and homes where Christ is followed 24/7;
  • Seeing the need can be God's call to be messengers to and for the Church
Our Core Values 
  • We are ultimately accountable to Jesus Christ, God's Son, the only Savior, and Lord of all;
  • Our ultimate guide for Truth and direction are the Old and New Testaments of the Bible;
  • We will operate with integrity to achieve excellence in all matters;
  • We will challenge one another, and those we serve, to love the Lord our God with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength and our neighbors as ourselves;
  • We will model for and teach those we serve to carry out Jesus' command to make disciples because all are sinners in need of salvation;
  • Our primary indicators of effectiveness will focus upon the spiritual potential of those we serve.
The Identified Need  
Churches are often ready and willing to submit to Christ and collaborate with other parts of Christ's body, but lack the means and the skills to be effective.

Our Process for Governance
Policy Governance®, an integrated board leadership paradigm created by Dr. John Carver, is a groundbreaking model of governance designed to empower boards of directors to fulfill their obligation of accountability for the organizations they govern. The model enables the board to focus on the larger issues, to delegate with clarity, to control management's job without meddling, to rigorously evaluate the accomplishment of the organization; to truly lead its organization.

Evaluation, with such carefully stated expectations, is nothing more than seeking an answer to the question, "Have our expectations been met?" The board, having clarified its expectations, can assess performance in that light. This focused approach reduces the mountains of paperwork boards often feel obliged to review. Moreover, those boards which worry that they are only furnished the data management wants to give them find that, in stating their expectations and demanding a relevant and credible accounting of performance, they have effectively taken over control of their major information needs. Their staff no longer has to read their minds.

Policy Governance is a radical and effective change in the way boards conceive of and do their job. It allows greater accountability. Board leadership isn't just rhetoric. It's a reality.

Our Vision
The local church, served by Allasso
Ministries, is a community that:
 
  • Is publicly identified through their discipled relationship with our Triune God and their members' love for one another;
  • Passionately loves the unsaved while seeking justice and mercy for all;
  • Grows as God adds to their number those who are being saved;
  • Equips and unleashes believers to use their gifts for ministry and mission;
  • Attains the fullness of Christ;
  • Collaborates with other parts of the body of Christ in service to a hurting world;
  • Exemplify unity;
  • Produces fruit that will last forever;

And in all ways, bring glory to God.

OUR UNDERSTANDING FOR FRUITFUL MINISTRY IS
To provide executive staffing services so as to strategically renew a strategic discipleship methodology for the 21st century that cultivates Christian maturity and disciples members to become missionaries who communicate the Gospel with their peers and community while offering authentic community within their local church.  We will do this within three ministry initiative areas
 

ALLASSO MINISTRIES' can help churches develop, improve, and maintain a Christ-centered, quality, relational, affordable, long-term Christian Education ministry for congregations of all sizes and all denominations.

ALLASSO MINISTRIES' new paradigm for Christian Education focuses upon ministering and encouraging a team of adults who lead the on-going ministry. 

ALLASSO MINISTRIES' would be like an additional staff person who mobilizes the laity of a local church toward one common goal - to invite individuals, from any background, into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ who are genuinely affirmed by members of a local congregation to grow in maturity so as to transform the world through compassion and mission.

 

 

STATEMENT OF FAITH

We believe the Bible to be inspired and infallible. Holy Scriptures are the only authoritative Word of God and our practical guide for daily living.

We believe that there is only one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ who came in the flesh. We believe in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His imminent personal return in power and glory. He is the only advocate and intermediary between God and humanity. 

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the repentant sinner becomes a new creation and is empowered to live a godly life.

Humanity cannot do anything to merit salvation from God. Without repentance of sins, humanity is lost and therefore separated from God. Salvation is only by the grace of God through a personal and dynamic faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. All who receive, by faith, the Lord Jesus Christ are born-again and empowered by the Holy Spirit and have become children of God.

Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church, His Body, which is composed of everyone who have been united in Him through saving faith. God admonishes His people to assemble together for regular worship, for participation in the sacraments, for edification through Biblically-based teaching, and for mutual encouragement.

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost. They that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.

 

Christological Affirmation

We Affirm Jesus Christ:  The Son

"He (Jesus)... said to them, 'But who do you say that I am?' Simon Peter answered, 'You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.' And Jesus answered him, 'Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father in heaven." (Matthew 16:15-17 NRSV)

We affirm, in accordance with Holy Scripture and with the Holy Spirit's help, that Jesus Christ is the one and only Son of God. Confession of Jesus as the Son is essential, not a matter of personal opinion. It is a matter of revelation, which was given to Peter and to the Church by God whom Jesus called Father. With Peter and the other Apostles, we confess that Jesus is the Christ. We confess with John and the other Apostles that in Jesus of Nazareth, the Word made flesh, the eternal Son of God has come into the world to make known the fullness of God's glory in grace and truth (John I). Therefore we confess, in continuity with the apostolic witness of the Church, that Jesus Christ is "true God from true God" (the Nicene Creed), the Second Person of the Holy Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.


We Affirm Jesus Christ:  The Savior

"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among mortals by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12 NRSV)

We affirm, in accordance with Holy Scripture and with the Holy Spirit's help, that Jesus Christ is the one and only Savior of the world. In him, we see not only the fullness and the glory of God, but also the model and power for our own freedom from the bondage of sin and death (Heb. 2:14-18). Through his obedient life, teaching, and ministry, his death on the cross for the sins of the world, and his bodily resurrection, he is the Savior of the world. God through Jesus Christ conquers sin and death, brings salvation to this rebellious world, and reconciles "the world to himself" (2 Corinthians. 5:18-21).


We Affirm Jesus Christ:  The
Lord

"As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving. See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ. For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have come to fullness in him, who is the head of every ruler and authority."
(Colossians 2:6-10 NRSV)

We affirm, in accordance with Holy Scripture and with the Holy Spirit's help, that Jesus Christ is the one and only Lord of creation and history. In the midst of many competing voices, the Church seeks to hear, trust, and obey Jesus the Lord and his commandments (1 Corinthians. 8:5,6). True authority in the Church derives from, and furthers obedience to this Lord. True authority in the Church holds the community accountable to this Lord, especially when teachings and practices arise that undermine or deny his Lordship.

Ministry Results!
Discipling Christians to Disciple Disciples

 


It is our ministry calling to lead churches beyond our limited caterpillar existence, and through the unknown reality of the cocoon, so as to re-emerge as a butterfly which knows no limitations.  It is through God's grace and the empowerment of the Holy Spirit that we can achieve all that the Spirit of the Lord is leading His Church to be and become.  It is through God's grace and the empowerment of the Holy Spirit that we can achieve all that the Spirit of the Lord is leading His Church to be and become.

Our ministry aspiration is to assist your local church more effectively mobilize its disciple-making ministries.  Our creative staffing solution offers multiple experienced staff ("Executive Staff") available to serve you for the price of what it would cost to hire a single 1/4 time staff person.  Our process is simple:

  • Coach the Ministry Coordinators
    Our discipleship strategy is to disciple these coordinators (children, youth, young adults, family/marriage, and adults) to disciple disciples to disciple.  We are intentional upon multiplying their ministry impact by drawing upon the ministry expertise of our Executive Staff members.
     
  • Train the Leaders
    Effective leadership depends upon one's ability to equip ministry leaders for their specialized ministry roles.  And because most of our leaders have full-time careers, we maximize their ministry impact by offering quality training, resources, networking, and planning tools.
     
  • Resource the Lay Ministry Teams
    In the midst of information overload, our Executive Staff will help to alleviate your busy-work and free you to focus upon relationships and ministry results.

We simply compliment your existing ministry aspirations by offering our services so as to continue the good work you've already begun.  It has been our experience that ministry can become isolated and even lonely.  Our Executive Staff desire to serve you and your ministry dreams.  It's all about strengthening your ministry teams, offering you and your leaders a network filled with ministry peers, and generating opportunities to increase your creativity and ministry output.

John Maxwell has a great acronym, "T.E.A.M. - Together Everyone Accomplishes More."  Our Executive Staff have served in churches as small as nine in worship to 400.  Each congregation is unique because of its local community, size of the congregation, and denominational affiliation.  Our primary objective is to serve you in the areas that will strengthen your age-level discipleship ministries. And we believe this is best accomplished through lay ministry teams and networking you with ministry peers.  Together, not only will you accomplish more but you'll regain your creativity, passion, and joy. 

Contact us as we'd love to know how we might partner with you and your local ministry teams.

We are not affiliated with any one denomination and desire to invest in inter-denominational networking within local proximities.  Discover more about our ministry's objectives by surfing our navigational buttons on the left.
