vision
Transforming lives together through a community where people discover purpose in Jesus
our echo
Pursue god &
love people
When Jesus was asked about the greatest commandment He said it was an AND, not an either or.
surround it
in prayer
Prayer should be our first response, not our last resort.
we are better
together
God has designed us to journey through life together. There is beauty in our diversity.
our church is
beyond sundays
If we think church is limited to the hour and a half on Sundays, we have missed the boat on what God wants to do in our world.
The Church we see
The presence of God inhabits the worship, prayer, and relationships.The community is filled with people connecting with God and responding to their Salvation. They wildly pursue God and have a passion to see His love known in and through their lives.It is a home for all, where people can belong before they believe.We see churches at different locations connected with one heart and remaining true and consistent with biblical principles.
This is a church with one vision but many dreams. These dreams are activated by going beyond comfort zones and believing for the impossible. The church is multi-cultural and unified, it is Inspire. The lifestyle is contagious and empowering. Thousands are equipped through a message of Faith, Hope, and Love, which is life-changing and relevant.
We see an amazing group of people who don’t just follow, but put their hands to the plough with their own personal gifts, without regret, shame, or guilt.They refuse to arrive and will do whatever it takes to be on the cutting edge. These people are totally committed, they count whatever the cost and pay whatever the price to see heaven on earth.It’s a church in the right place at the right time, doing all that God has called us to do through people who are generous and Kingdom-minded.We are an incredible blessing in our community; having facilities that enable people to be discipled, coached, and equipped 24/7 to fulfil their destiny for Christ.
This church is a Holy Spirit place where healing, freedom, love, and change erupt within its walls. The people have an incredible attitude. We are inspirational and live life enthusiastically. The place where we get together is warm, friendly, and filled with excitement. Our city is blessed because of us!
Inspire is, and will continue to become, the church we see!
INSPIRE INTERNATIONAL
In 2011 Inspire Church Albany made it's first church plant internationally. Inspire Church Singapore is proud to be a plant out of the heart and DNA of Inspire Church NZ and is committed to the needs and missions within their local community. We value that as a larger movement of churches we can inspire, encourage and build each other up. We network closely with our Inspire family in Singapore and pastors Don and Julia McDonell serve as the senior pastors of the movement; working closely with our Singapore team and Pastors Hamish and Haidee.
