Uniting Church & Family in the Great Commission

Discover God’s mission for your family & church to spread the Gospel.

God is always on the move, building His Church and advancing the Gospel through the generations. One of the ways He has been powerfully moving around the world during the past 30 years is in the area of family ministry. The Holy Spirit has awakened church leaders and parents to the essential need for ministry, worship, prayer, and Scripture—not just at church, but in our homes.

Visionary Church seeks to reclaim the simple, transformational, and global mission revealed in Scripture for both the church and family.
