P. E. A. C. E.
"Ordinary people empowered by God,
making a difference wherever they are.
P - Promote reconciliation
E - Equip servant leaders
A - Assist the poor
C - Care for the sick
E - Educate the next generation
The P.E.A.C.E. Plan is to involve every Christian and every church in every nation
in the task of serving people in the areas of the greatest global needs.
What's The Problem?
There are five giant problems that affect billions of people on our planet.
We call them the Global Giants.
Spiritual Emptiness
Billions live without hope, and in conflict.
They don't know that they're not an accident,
and that Jesus Christ died for them so that their past can be forgiven,
they can have a purpose for living,
and they can have a home in heaven.
Self-Serving Leadership
Jesus said leadership is about serving,
and if you want to be great, learn to be the servant of all.
The goal of leadership is not to see how many people help you,
but how many people you help.
Extreme Poverty
Half the world lives on less than two dollars a day—
three billion people are in extreme poverty.
Pandemic Diseases
Billions of people are still suffering from diseases
that we know the cure for, and that's unconscionable.
Rampant Illiteracy
Half of the population of the world—three billion people—
is functionally illiterate.
How can any body make it in the twenty-first century
if they can't read or write?
Half the population of the world—three billion people—is functionally illiterate.
How can any body make it in the 21st century if they can't read or write?
These giants loom so large
that no one person or organizatin can provide significant relief.
The United Nations hasn't been the solution.
Governments haven't. Businesses haven't.
None of these have the advantages the church has.
The church has the biggest distribution,
the most people, and the greatest motivation — love.
So we have developed the P.E.A.C.E. Plan
to attact the world's five Global Giants:
P - Promote reconciliation—
To address the Glant of spiritual emptiness
E - Equip servant leaders—
to address the Giant of corrupt leadership
A - Assist the poor—
To address the giant of extreme poverty
C - Care for the sick—
To address the Giant of pandemic diseases and care for those who suffer from them
E - Educate the next generation—
To address the Giant of illiteracy and lack of education
