A MINISTRY FOR
THE BLACK SHEEP

We exist for the ones who never quite fit the mold, the people who wandered or got pushed to the edges, and are finding their way back to Jesus, the Good Shepherd who calls His sheep by name.

BUILT ON TRUTH

Three pillars that anchor everything we believe and do: Christ, Scripture, and Community.

JESUS CHRIST

Jesus is the cornerstone of everything we believe and do. He is the Good Shepherd and the risen King, worthy of all devotion. Our allegiance is to Him, not to any institution or personality.

SCRIPTURE

The Bible is God-breathed and living, our anchor in a shifting world and the light that guides us home. We stand on the Word alone.

COMMUNITY

We are the Body of Christ, believers held together by our shared love for Jesus, not by sameness. We gather to encourage, challenge, and walk together toward who Christ is making us.

Black Sheep Among White Sheep

WHAT IS FERAL FAITH?

Feral Faith was born in the wilderness, not against the Church but reaching back to what the Church was before the walls and stages got in the way.

It's for the black sheep, the ones who never quite fit the mold. Often that wasn't because their faith was small, but because the room around them was.

No stage, no product. Just black sheep answering the Shepherd's call home.

THE GOSPEL

The greatest news humanity has ever received: the story of God's love, sacrifice, and redemption through Jesus Christ.

THE PROBLEM

We Are Separated From God

Humanity was created for relationship with God, but sin entered the world and broke that relationship. Every person has sinned and fallen short of God's perfect standard.

We cannot save ourselves through good works, religious activities, or moral living. The penalty for sin is death, eternal separation from God.

"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." — Romans 3:23

THE PERSON

Jesus Christ, God's Perfect Solution

God loved us so much that He sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, to be our Savior. Jesus lived a perfect, sinless life, the life we could never live. He willingly went to the cross and died in our place, taking the punishment we deserved.

Three days later, Jesus rose from the dead, conquering sin and death forever. His resurrection proves that His sacrifice was accepted by God and that He has power over death.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." — John 3:16

THE PROMISE

Salvation Through Faith

God offers salvation as a free gift. We cannot earn it; we can only receive it by faith. When we trust in Jesus Christ alone for salvation, God forgives our sins completely, gives us new life, and promises us eternal life with Him.

It's not about being perfect or cleaning up your life first. It's about accepting what Christ has already done for you.

"For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast." — Ephesians 2:8-9

THE RESPONSE

Repent and Believe

God calls us to respond to the Gospel by repenting (turning away from sin and turning toward God) and believing in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.

Repentance and belief go deeper than agreeing with a set of ideas. They are a transformation of the heart that changes everything. When you surrender your life to Christ, you become a new creation: forgiven, made secure, and starting a new walk with Jesus.

"If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." — Romans 10:9

WHERE DOES 33 COME FROM?

The number 33 appears throughout Scripture in powerful ways, each pointing to redemption, promise, and the sovereignty of God. At the center of the Bible lies Psalm 117, the 595th chapter out of 1,189 total, the backbone of Scripture. Just as the human spine contains 33 vertebrae, supporting and protecting the body's central nervous system, Psalm 117 stands as the structural center of God's Word, holding together the Old and New Testaments in perfect unity.

This connection between Scripture's center and the human body's structure is especially meaningful to our founding members, who are paraplegics living with spinal cord injuries. They understand intimately the critical role of the spine, and how even when it's broken, God's strength remains unshakable. Just as Psalm 117, the direct center of the Bible, calls all nations to praise God's enduring faithfulness, this ministry exists to proclaim that no injury, no brokenness, no circumstance can separate us from the love and purpose of Christ.
