Bear Creek Mission Statement

E.Q.U.I.P.

Engage their brokenness! The Saints are broken and Bear Creek Ranch exists to engage that brokenness with deliverance and inner healing ministries. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise. (Psalm 51:17)

Quiet their fears! Fear reigns within the Kingdom of God and Bear Creek Ranch is committed to quieting those fears and exchanging them for the healing fear of the Lord. The fear of the Lord leads to life: Then one rests content, untouched by trouble. (Proverbs 19:23)

Unearth their longings! The Saints long to leap from the pews into works of service for the King of kings. Once discovered, these longings are the fodder for spiritual giftings for the benefit of others. Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life. (Proverbs 13:12)

Instruct them to  . . . Practical training and coaching is essential to releasing healthy Saints into their works of service. Bear Creek Ranch has assembled a team of servant coaches to train them. Apply your heart to instruction and your ears to words of knowledge. (Proverbs 23:12)

Pursue My mission! The coaching staff at Bear Creek Ranch compels them to fulfill their portion of Jesus’ stated mission. The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord. (Luke 4:18-19 KJV)
