Incarnational

Terra Nova is an attempt to bring truth to time. God is most accessible to us, and understood by us, when He looks like us. It is our belief that America has to look at itself as a mission field more than ever before. In a time when there is hyper change, movements of ideas and people have created generational shifts that are highly noticeable. New ethnic groups and a fully matured consumer industry have promoted acustomized sense of identity in affinity groups. It becomes important for the church in the United States to see itself more than ever as a missional body. Jesus walked where the people were. Paul did the same as he walked onto Mars Hill and used the cultural icons of the day to reflect Christ. The missional principle of incarnation, bringing truth to time, is critical to Terra Nova and its mission of reaching out.
