As citizens of God’s kingdom, we are called to love, worship, and obey our Lord, to love and serve His body, the Church, to love all peoples everywhere, which includes presenting the whole Gospel for the whole person throughout the whole world. Youth With A Mission (YWAM) is an international movement of Christians from many denominations dedicated to presenting Jesus personally to this and future generations, to mobilizing as many as possible to help in this task, and to the training and equipping of believers for their part in fulfilling the Great Commission. Please copy and share this document in its entirety as presented here. A YWAMer is someone who has completed a YWAM Discipleship Training School and who joyfully embraces our Statement of Purpose, Core Beliefs, Foundational Values, Legacy Words and Covenants. The combination of this purpose, beliefs, values and practices makes up the unique family characteristics of YWAM – our “DNA.” They are the framework we hold in high regard for they help us determine who we are, how we live and how we make decisions.
Some are common to all Christians everywhere others are distinctive to Youth With A Mission. This shared purpose and our YWAM beliefs and values are the guiding principles for both the past and future growth of our Mission. They are recorded here in order to pass on to successive generations that which God has emphasized to us.
This document presents YWAM’s sincerely held purpose, core beliefs, foundational values and practices which have been compiled in response to specific directives given by God since YWAM’s beginning in 1960.
