OUR APPROACH

A person experiencing wholeness is not defined by material wealth, but by their spiritual, emotional, and relational health.  Health in those areas will foster the ability to meet one’s material needs.  American style poverty is often a result of emotional, spiritual, and relational poverty, not economic poverty.  That is why we seek to address those deeper types of poverty with our three-pillar approach.

Education is the means by which people encounter opportunities to express their God given talents and abilities.  It allows us to work and function in our modern society.  Study after study has shown that education is a significant factor in a person’s outcome.  Lower education is linked to high incarceration rates, drug use, and health problems.  By providing our youth with a Christ centered education supplied by trustworthy, caring adults we believe Kadima can have a tremendous impact on the outcome of many young people.

Faith is the foundation of health and wholeness.  Without it one can not be in a right relationship with God.  As disciples of Jesus we believe a relationship with the living God is the answer to many cries of the heart.  One can’t experience completeness with a God sized hole in their life.  Faith isn’t just a part of what we do, it permeates everything we do.

Community is the vehicle that God uses to love and care for his people.  The myth of the self-made person is just that, a myth.  Humans are relational, and our relationships will either make us or break us.  Now more than ever, our youth are in need of adults in their life who demonstrate what healthy relationships look like.  Our approach to fostering wholeness relies heavily on creating healthy community that embodies qualities such as grace, faith, love, kindness, honesty, and forgiveness.
