Be a part of what God is doing around the world to draw people of all languages to Himself that He may receive their unique expressions of praise. We invite you to join us in being a part of the fulfillment of Revelation 7:9-10. We invite you to be involved in God's global purposes through music.
Global Calling...Role...Strategy...
The calling God has placed on our lives as an organization and as musicians in reference to His global purposes is to impact culture by impacting those who increasingly and significantly impact culture in all parts of the world, especially national college musicians. The opportunity and stewardship responsibility we have to change cultures by reaching its college musicians and artists is immeasurable.
The strategy is for artists to develop relationships with local musicians through concerts, worship training sessions, and cultural exchange. From these musical intersections, cross-cultural relationships are developed, national musicians are reached, culture is altered, and nations are changed by the gospel of Jesus Christ. We challenge you, as an artist, to be a part of impacting culture worldwide.
Current Offerings
Wavefront teams consist of a band and crew trained to serve abroad alongside an in-country host, functioning as a catalyst to their starting or existing ministry. WFI can provide host connections, logistical and administrative support, personal preparation, ministry training, project debriefing, and re-entry follow up.
Each team member is required to meet with a mentor of their own choice before and after the trip to help integrate life lessons learned on the field into a growing spiritual life at home. The goal is to use music as a tool for advancing the Kingdom of God in lives worldwide and in the lives of our participants.
Coming in 2010
Epicenter is a week long intensive experience geared toward bands already playing together and wanting to move in a missional ministry direction. Mornings are set aside for personal spiritual development and group times focused on reflecting the missional heart of God and artistic performance in the context of mission. Afternoons and evenings are reserved for practice sessions and public performances (street corners, coffee shops, etc.), as well as fellowship and rest. Band members are encouraged and equipped to share their faith with interested individuals.
Each Epicenter closes with a time of commissioning, releasing bands to continue public ministry through the arts in their home communities. The desired outcome is bands of Kingdom citizens affected by the power of the Holy Spirit to use and develop their talents for progressively further reach into their home communities.
cities on hills is a more of a movement than a program. Several times a year, local bodies of faith gather in their own communities to intercede for the nations. We cannot worship God and leave unchanged. As members of the Body of Christ join to bring hearts of prayer and worship to an audience of One, spiritual breakthrough happens around the world and in our own lives. The Kingdom moves forward through entire nations and individual spirits. In the process, we grow to look more like the One we love, the One who is our Light (Re 21.23).
WFI will post on its website a yearly schedule for these gatherings with themes, suggestions for worshipful expression, and focus points for prayer, but each location will have its own unique style. The posted guidelines give helpful structure without scripting every event. These gatherings are not meant to be an end in themselves; they are a beginning and an encouragement for the Body of Christ to fully engage in Her role in the Great Commission.
Also a movement rather than a program, Street Love is a springboard of ideas for churches and fellowship groups to worship God by bringing their worship of Him to the streets around them in the form of tangibly serving others. It is most effective when combined with cities on hills, although they can be separate events. As we serve those in need, we can acknowledge His worth before people who have yet to know Him and invite them to worship God with us. WFI will offer ideas on the website for how your group can serve your community, as well as a place to post testimonies of God’s faithfulness so we can praise Him corporately for what He has done.
