Mission Statement
“Foundations of Truth, an outreach ministry, endeavors to inspire, empower, and equip churches to glorify God by sharing the foundations of the Christian faith with the people in their communities, providing the knowledge and opportunity to enter into a relationship with God, experience His salvation, and build lives of purpose, joy, and fulfillment.”
Picture This
The sun rises to start a new day in your community. Over the course of that day, small groups meet at work, at coffee shops, and in homes. Members of your faith family—trained, supported, and confident–meet with groups of lost, hurting, and questioning people where they have the opportunity to show them God’s plan for their lives in a meaningful way. In a respectful, relational, small group context, leaders engage them in relevant discussions to help them discover God’s hope and salvation.
Next, leaders continue to meet with them to begin the discipleship process. Using the same small group format, they enable their peers to walk as new creations in Christ. Then, through their relationships, you are able to involve them in your church, where they have support and mentors who can guide them into fullness in Christ.
All the while, the members of your faith family develop discipleship skills that will carry them throughout their lives, equipping them to habitually and confidently defend and share their faith within their spheres of influence as God leads.
“All of us are looking for curriculum we can put into the hands of Christ’s people to lead evangelistic and apologetic groups in neighborhoods, families, work places, and schools. You will find none better than Foundations of Truth! Its effectiveness is found in its simplicity of presentation and its depth of impact. Any Christ-follower can use this curriculum, and we are putting it into the hands of as many of them as we can with the call to start these groups outside the walls of our church campus. We are expecting to make a major impact in our community with this curriculum anointed by the Holy Spirit of God.”

What Others Are Saying About Foundations of Truth
“For those considering using Foundations of Truth, I would highly recommend the material. Matt Spencer has done a wonderful and accurate job of putting together biblical material for students to understand and for them to grow spiritually. Matt desires that students become devoted followers of Christ, and I believe he has written a curriculum that God will use in a powerful way in the lives of many.”

“I used to deal with depression. I cut my arms and wrote full pages about how life was meaningless. I had lost my faith in Jesus. When I was brought to the [Foundations of Truth] group, I knew I was there for a reason, and now I’m happy with my life and who I am.”

“The [Foundations of Truth] class helped me be closer to God and helped me understand my religion better. The class helped me discover my religion and helped me confirm my beliefs that have to deal with Christianity. It helped me realize that God should always be first and always turn to Him.”
