About Awakened Generation
Awakened Generation was founded in 2016 out of a holy, burning desire for people to personally know God and be changed by Him. Our mandate is for the Gospel to reach communities around the globe. Our hope is for people in every sphere of the world to know God, completely trust in Him for salvation, and with lives full of His Spirit, see His Kingdom come. We will do whatever it takes to bring to Jesus the reward of His suffering and to prepare a generation for His appearing.
Partner together"We are raising up a family who come at any cost to gather around the person and presence of Jesus. Our hearts beat with a longing to continually encounter God. We breathe to know Him more. This is our anthem: May Your Kingdom come. We live to proclaim and demonstrate the Gospel to all people, whoever or wherever they are. We believe we are living in the days of sons and daughters of God awakening to the upward call of God in Jesus Christ. They will go throughout the earth and will be unshakable in their resolved surrender to Jesus, radically selfless in their love for others, and unrelentingly holy in every part of their lives" - Awakened Generation Team
Our Core Values
These core values form the foundation of our culture and serve as a compass for our future. They define who we are, what we stand for, and how we interact with each other and our community.
Encounter Jesus
We must know God and cultivate personal depth with Him by communing with Him and plumbing the depths of His Word. He promises that we will be filled with His Spirit, and this is exactly what we believe we need.
Community in God's Presence
Covenant love is found where we are discipled in community and discipled by God's presence. We want to build a community where we worship, pray, and do family together. We want to circle around God so that He may live and dwell among us.
Love the Least of These
The Gospel looks like transformed communities that transform the community around them. We want a heart that's broken and eyes that are open for the "one."
Raise Up Leaders and Pioneers
God is raising up authentic and empowered pioneers who carry the heart of fathers and mothers. They are reliant on God and reliable to others. We pray to see God raise up true leaders for this generation.
Spark Creative Means
Engage the world. Create culture. Live with a spirit of excellence. Be faithful to God and use all the tools He has given us. We desire to use creative and artistic means to diversely express the image of Jesus to the cultures around us.
Be Sent
There are many times when obeying God's call means sacrifice, and we count it an honor to join the legacy of Christ's story by saying "Yes." In every setting—our homes, workplaces, local cities, country, and the nations—we must live as "sent" ones.

Meet Our Founders
