Mission Of God
Called to be Free
To fall from grace is to turn back from the gospel we have understood and to start depending on some human effort to be the basis of our acceptance before God.
The Gospel, Culture and Public Life
Christ is not one authority among many, but the ruler of the kings of the earth.The Son of God appeared on earth to destroy the works of the devil, and has given us the task of cultural renewal in every area of life, including the public square.
The Lost Sheep and the Lost Coin
Like a precious coin, the Lord works constantly to rescue and redeem His people, and through us, to redeem our culture and world.
EICC Strategic Mission and Manifesto
The Ezra Institute for Contemporary Christianity (EICC) exists for the defense, confirmation and vindication of a biblical cosmology affirming the Lordship of the triune God over all life and thought.

A Comprehensive Response to a Failing Culture
We need a renewed vision of what it means to be God's people both in our vocations and the life of the church in order to fulfill his calling for us in a failing culture. We need to understand the hope which is our calling, the inheritance which is ours in Christ, and the greatness of his power that is given to us who believe.
