There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.  And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s descendants, heirs according to promise. (Galatians 3:28-29 NASB)

Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone. (1 Corinthians 12:4-6 ESV)

I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some. I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share with them in its blessings. (1 Corinthians 9:22-23 ESV)

There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call—one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. (Ephesians 4:4-6 ESV)

"To know Christ, make Him known, and help others do the same."®

The overall purpose of Navs at the US Naval Academy is threefold: First, to help midshipmen, officers, Faculty and Staff cultivate a personal and intimate relationship with Jesus Christ through Bible reading, meditation, teaching, fellowship, and personal discipleship; Second, to build Christ-like character; Third, to equip them as servants and workers in advancing God's kingdom. This emphasis contributes both to the moral mission of the Naval Academy and affords the opportunity, to those so interested, in developing their faith in relation to their Naval career.

We are pursuing 6 Goals:

1. Plebe ministry ... recruit them to "follow us as we follow Christ"
2. Evangelism ... invite everyone!
3. Ethnos ... all ethnicities and nations
4. Community ... abiding in Christ together
5. Disciplemaking ... intentional life-on-life® ministry
6. Generations ... future disciple makers and servants

We are asking God to fulfill Zech 8:20-23: that we would have the reputation that “God is with us”, that we would enthusiastically invite others to join us, and that many would come!
