Significance
Too often people don’t count! This blocks potential in society, business and neighborhoods. This attitude divides, isolates and limits us. GT does everything it can to demonstrate that people count to GOD and to us.
- Made to Count by Following JESUS Made to Count means that GT rejects outdated philosophies, rigid rules, irrelevant habits, empty ceremonies, and restrictive hierarchies. GT has a single focus: JESUS. Jesus in His actions 2,000 years ago & His interaction with us in 2009 brings freedom & enables us to make a difference today.
- Made to Count by Keeping our “Prime Directive” Part of GT’s “Prime Directive” is to “Love People.” All People. That means: rich or poor, black, white, asian, latin, educated, uneducated, young & old. In a church that believes EVERYONE counts, we refuse to be manipulated by those old limitations.
- Made to Count by Living Beyond Ourselves! GT has been working to help people to realize that they count for a long time — not just here in San Francisco — around the planet. Right now, GT is touching people in places from Trinidad to Thailand to Tanzania to the streets of San Francisco.
- How? 3 ways First, we go to people outside of our city. This Easter Season we have various action-steps planned to lift real people. Next, we’ve planned a trip to Africa this summer. Thirdly, we direct up to 20% of every dollar GT receives to projects outside GT to solid, accountable feeding programs, orphanages, schools, even programs that bring water to thirsty villages.
