Our Vision
Contending For The Glory exists to make the Glory of God known and create opportunities for people to encounter His presence, experience His transforming power, and become witnesses of His Glory.
We accomplish this by teaching the Word of God concerning His Glory and creating environments where people can encounter His presence through worship, prayer, faith, and yielding to the Holy Spirit. We do not merely teach people about the Glory—we contend for people to know His Glory, encounter His Glory, be transformed by His Glory, and make His Glory known to others.
Our Mandate
Teaching — Making His Glory Known. We teach the Word of God concerning His Glory so that people gain biblical knowledge and understanding of who God is, what His Glory is, and how His Glory is revealed.
Demonstration — Making Room for His Glory. Through worship, prayer, faith, and yielding to the Spirit, we make room for people to encounter the God of Glory and experience His transforming power.
The Assignment Before Us
We believe God is calling us to contend for a greater revelation of His Glory—not simply for ourselves, but so that His Glory may be known, encountered, experienced, demonstrated, and declared to others, until the knowledge of the Glory of the Lord fills the earth.
Oklahoma is a strategic hub in that assignment—reaching Texas, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, and New Mexico. If you would like to help carry the vision, we would love to hear from you.
