6 About Daring Daughters... Daring Daughters is a mission-minded Christian ministry. We love Jesus and we love the Bible. We unite from across generations, denominations, and nations --daring to dream about God s purposes, daring to cry for the needs of this world, and daring to obey God s Great Commandment and Great Commission by His Grace. As a women s ministry, we are pro-family (upholding pre-marital purity, marriage as one-man and one-woman, esteeming biblical womanhood in every season of life), pro-life, pro-purity (while deeply loving and praying for those trapped in sexual exploitation, bondage, and abuse), pro-orphan, pro-children, pro-motherhood, pro-adoption declaring God s true freedom for us as women, having hearts of SUB-mission and total surrender to Him. Our focus: Calling Women to World Missions -- Our theme: Dare to Dream. Dare to Cry. Dare to Obey. Our key verses: Jeremiah 9:17-18, 20. Romans 10: key ministry areas: 1. Dare to PRAY ( Daring Dozen month-by-month intercession and prayer calls. 2. Dare to Disneyworld (overall focus Great Commandment/Great Commission February DD conference). 3. Dare to SERVE (local/global focus w/occ in Denver. 4. Dare to REJOICE (online Bible-study interviews), 5. Dare to UNITE (with connect-groups ), 6. Dare to SUPPORT (international mission giving), 7. Dare to GO (Daring Daughter scholarships, going with other organizations) We believe... In the BIBLE: The Holy Bible (the sixty-six books of the Old Testament and New Testament, from Genesis to Revelation) is the only inspired, infallible, and authoritative written Word of God (Heb. 4:12, II Tim. 3:16-17). In the TRINITY: There is only ONE GOD, eternally existent in three distinct Persons: the FATHER, the SON (Jesus Christ), and the HOLY SPIRIT. (II Cor. 13:14, Gen. 1:26, John 14:26, Matt. 28:19). In GOD S HOLINESS and SOVEREIGNTY (Duet. 32:4, Isaiah 5:16, 46:9-11, I Peter 1:15) and His CREATION of the heavens and the earth (Gen. 1:1, Acts 14:15, Heb. 11:3). ALL HAVE SINNED against God s RIGHTEOUSNESS (Rom. 3:12, 5:12, 5:21), and SIN separates people from God (Isaiah 59:2). In our LORD JESUS CHRIST, in His deity and humanity (John 1:1, Col. 1:15-17, Col. 2:9), His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14, Matt. 1:18,25), His sinless life (I Cor. 5:21, I Peter 2:22), His atoning death on the cross (I Peter 1:18-19), His bodily resurrection (Luke 24:39, Rom. 1:4), and His ascension into heaven (Acts 1:9-11, Mark 16:19). In GOD S SALVATION, by His GRACE, and through personal FAITH in the Lord Jesus Christ (Eph. 2:8-9). The only way to be made righteous before God is through repentance from sin and faith in the redemptive work of Christ, through the shedding of His precious blood on the CROSS (John 3:3, 3:16, Rom. 10:9-10, I Peter 1:18-19). In THE HOLY SPIRIT, who indwells all believers at salvation (1 Cor. 12:3) enabling us by His fruit to live with purity and HOLINESS before God (Gal. 5:22), and empowering us by His gifts to be effective witnesses for Jesus Christ (Acts 1:8, I Cor. 12:7-10). In ETERNAL LIFE after death of both the saved and the lost one to everlasting life, and the other to eternal damnation. We believe in the holy judgment of God, and in the reality of heaven and hell (Matt. 10:28, Heb. 9:27, Phil. 3:20), eagerly looking forward to the SECOND COMING of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the rapture of the Church (Acts 1:11, Luke 12:40, 21:27). In God s GREATEST COMMANDMENT (Matthew 22:37-39) and God s GREAT COMMISSION (Mark 16:15, Matthew 28:19), for the SUPREME TASK of the Church is the evangelization of the lost (Rom. 10:13-14). As a potential Daring Daughter leader, do you agree with this Christian statement of belief? Signature: Date: 6
