OUR VISION

As a faith-based organization with our foundations in Jesus Christ - Beyond The Known International exists to develop and support relational training solutions that empower community leaders to:
Eradicate local poverty
Expand childhood education
Stimulate economic development and job growth




OUR MISSION

Engage people where they are
1 Peter 4:8-10 – Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms.

Equip people with what they need
2 Timothy 3:16-17 – All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correction and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Empower people to lead change through Intentional Relationship and Demonstrated Love
Matthew 9:38–  Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.  Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”



OUR VALUES

Invest In Relationships
Matthew 22:36-40 Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law? Jesus replied: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and the prophets hang on these two commandments.”

Model Compassion
Matthew 9:36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.

Act With Respect
Philippians 2:3-4 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interest, but also to the interests of others.

Seek Wisdom
Luke 2:52 And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and Man

Encourage Creativity
Exodus 31:3-6 And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability and knowledge in all kinds of crafts – to make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze, to cut and set stones, to work in wood, and to engage in all kinds of craftsmanship.

Respond In Love
1 John 4:7-8 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
