Gideon’s Army was founded in 1998 by Brother Greg Lancaster as a relational family network of ministers and ministries. Gideon’s Army believes that church government as set forth in Scripture is relational more than political. Gideon’s Army presently reaches into three countries and is expanding the Gideon’s Army family across the world.
Gideon’s Army is dedicated to the growth of the Church of Jesus Christ through evangelism, the birthing of new churches, church and ministry oversight, and world missions efforts.
Briefly stated, our overall vision is:
(1) to reap the harvest of the Lord and to equip believers for the ministry
(2) to provide care, protection and accountability for ministers of the gospel
(3) to unite ministers and churches for the effective promotion of the Kingdom of God
(4) to establish a network of ministerial families or cells under endorsed apostolic
oversight in order to achieve these goals.
Though we believe in Divine Government, we teach that government is not an end in itself, but a means to an end: i.e., the orderly connection of ministers for effective promotion of the Kingdom of God. Therefore we remain flexible and do not major on structure, but on life within the structure. We, in Gideon’s Army, believe there should never be enough structure that the ministry could survive without the presence of God. We actively recruit ministers who feel lead to relate to Gideon’s Army the leadership of Vine Fellowship Network. |
