Girls LEAP (LEAP Self-Defense)
Girls’ LEAP (Lifetime Empowerment and Awareness Program) empowers girls and young women to value and champion their own safety and well-being. Girls' LEAP interrupts the cycle of violence by teaching girls that they have a right to be safe and how to defend themselves if necessary. We believe all girls deserve to grow up safe and free from violence – and that empowerment is violence prevention.

CHRIST FOR ME INC
As a child growing up in small Bible churches, one of the highlights of the year was the annual Missions Conference that was held, usually sometime in October. I enjoyed going and hearing of the work God was doing in other countries. After all, ours was a “Christian country” and we needed to send people overseas to share the Gospel of Christ. The songs we sang -- Send the Light, We’ve a Story to Tell, So Send I You, Go Ye into All the World and others, were brought out each year to sing several times along with a theme song and then put away again until the following year or until we had a missionary speaker come. I loved these songs, but it seemed we only sang them when “missionaries” were present.

Good Sense Movement
Good Sense Movement is an organization that believes deeply in the fact that stewardship of financial resources lies at the heart of Christian discipleship. As a result of that belief, we are passionately committed to raising the level of biblical stewardship education and training for churches, ministries, organizations, and individuals to equip families for financial freedom. We further believe that the failure of the church to articulate a biblical perspective on money and possessions yields the day to the seductive messages of materialism. Given the importance of finances in the day-to-day lives of individuals, we also believe it is an act of self-marginalization by the church to not speak into this arena. We yearn for the day when it is normative for the local church to have a vibrant financial stewardship ministry and are committed to doing what we can to make that day a reality. Scriptural support for the spiritual significance of one’s relationship to money includes the following: Matt. 6:21 – Where your treasure is your heart (the very essence of who you are) will be. Matt. 6:24 – You cannot (it is impossible!) serve both God and money. Matt. 13 – In the parable of the sower, Jesus indicated it was the deceitfulness of riches that choked out the Word of God and made it unfruitful. 1 Tim. 6:10 – The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Without going any further (and we could with many more scriptures), these four references make the case very well for why our relationship to money is spiritually significant!
