E-Hubs
Equipping Hubs are a connecting, caring, communicating community. Equipping Hubs are established to train, equip, activate, and mobilize marketplace as well as ministry leaders to be effective in their spheres of influence.
Though our way of functioning is very different from what we have known in the institutionalized Church, we by no means are anti-church. We love the institutionalized Church and understand its place in the Kingdom. What we are saying is that there is a need, now more than ever, for equipping hubs to rise up and build God's kingdom, bringing heaven to earth in all spheres of society.
We've created a table contrasting the difference in mindset and approach you can expect to see in an Equipping Hub.
