What is a ministry vision? A vision is what you see in your heart and it is spectacular. It is big and it is beautiful. You do not even know if it can really be true or come to life. In fact, a ministry vision is something you cannot bring to reality without the inspiration of God and guidance of the Spirit because it is too amazing to be true or achievable. The vision of a ministry is futuristic. It's not what you see in front of you now. Rather what you see in the distant future and every waking moment you are dedicated, driven and devoted to bringing it to reality. Vision is about if I could, if I had, if only, ...if everyone were... then this is what life will be like!
The vision of No Soul Left Behind Ministries is found completely in it's name. Not a single person will ever be left behind! The heartfelt desire of this ministry is that all whose lives are touched by the Spirit of God in and through us will be forever transformed vessels of love glorifying God, loving themselves as Christ loves them, and able to demonstrate to the fullest their love for one another "so" much so that they will not leave anyone behind to die in the bondage of sin, walk in brokenheartedness, despair or in hopeless.
Jesus said it best when He answered one of the most complex questions found in Matthew 22: 36-40, "Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets."
Jesus came to this earth with a very powerful vision and passion - “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him." John 3: 16-17.
"So Jesus told them this story: If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them gets lost, what will he do? Won’t he leave the ninety-nine others in the wilderness and go to search for the one that is lost until he finds it? And when he has found it, he will joyfully carry it home on his shoulders. When he arrives, he will call together his friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me because I have found my lost sheep.’ In the same way, there is more joy in heaven over one lost sinner who repents and returns to God than over ninety-nine others who are righteous and haven’t strayed away!" Luke 15:3-7
