Statement of Faith
Outdoor Crusade is a Christian discipleship ministry rooted in the authority of Scripture and centered on the saving work of Jesus Christ.
God’s Word is our foundation and final authority for Christian faith, doctrine, and life.Biblical Truth at the Center of the Journey
Outdoor Crusade exists to support Christian discipleship and encourage believers to grow in their daily walk with Jesus Christ.
Our ministry is guided by Scripture. We seek to communicate the essential truths of the Christian faith clearly, faithfully, and with humility.
This statement focuses on foundational Christian beliefs and avoids turning secondary doctrinal differences into barriers to using the Outdoor Crusade discipleship resources.
What Outdoor Crusade Believes
These beliefs form the theological foundation of the ministry and the Outdoor Crusade 40-Day Reset Journey.
The Bible
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and the final authority for Christian faith, doctrine, and life.
God
We believe there is one true and living God who eternally exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ
We believe Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man. He was born of a virgin, lived without sin, died on the cross for our sins, rose bodily from the dead, ascended to heaven, and will return.
Humanity and Sin
We believe every person is created in the image of God and possesses dignity and value. We also believe all people are affected by sin and need reconciliation with God.
Salvation
We believe salvation is a gift of God’s grace received through faith in Jesus Christ, not earned by human effort or good works.
The Holy Spirit
We believe the Holy Spirit convicts of sin, brings new life, lives within believers, and empowers Christians to grow in holiness and faithful obedience.
Discipleship
We believe followers of Jesus are called to grow in their knowledge of God, obey His Word, pray, love others, serve faithfully, and become more like Christ.
Prayer
We believe prayer is an essential part of the believer’s relationship with God and should be practiced with faith, humility, honesty, and submission to His will.
The Church
We believe the local church is God’s ordained community for worship, biblical teaching, fellowship, service, accountability, baptism, and the Lord’s Supper.
Christ’s Return and Eternal Life
We believe Jesus Christ will return and that all people will stand before God. Those who belong to Christ will enjoy eternal life with Him.
Salvation Is Found in Jesus Christ
Christian discipleship does not begin with self-improvement. It begins with the grace of God and a restored relationship with Him through Jesus Christ.
We believe humanity’s deepest need is reconciliation with God. Jesus Christ lived without sin, died for our sins, and rose from the dead. Salvation is received by grace through faith in Him.
Good works do not earn salvation. Faithful living is the response of a person who has received God’s grace and is learning to follow Jesus in everyday life.
Outdoor Crusade Supports Faithful Church Involvement
Outdoor Crusade is a parachurch discipleship ministry. It is not a church and does not seek to replace the biblical role of the local congregation.
We encourage every believer to participate faithfully in a biblical local church under qualified pastoral leadership.
The Outdoor Crusade 40-Day Reset Journey is designed to supplement biblical preaching, Christian fellowship, prayer, worship, accountability, and service within the local church.
Rooted in Truth and Centered on Christ
Outdoor Crusade exists to support Christian discipleship and encourage believers to participate faithfully in a biblical local church.
Our resources are intended to point people toward God’s Word, encourage prayer, support faithful living, and help believers take practical steps in their daily walk with Christ.
Grow in Your Daily Walk With God
The Outdoor Crusade 40-Day Reset Journey provides a practical, Scripture-centered path of prayer, reflection, and faithful daily action.
