What We Believe.

WHAT WE BELIEVE IMPACTS WHAT WE DO

Ministry Verse.

Vertical Divider

• We believe the Bible to be the only inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. It is the source for all we need for spiritual life.
• We believe that the Bible is the primary source that the Holy Spirit uses to bring about soul transformation in the life of the believer in Jesus Christ.
• We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
• We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ; in His virgin birth; in His sinless life; in His miracles; in His bodily resurrection; in His ascension to the right hand of the Father; and in His personal return in power and glory. We believe that His death and our trust in its atoning power is the only means by which we are saved.
• We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is essential, and that repentance from sin and acceptance of Jesus Christ as both Lord and Savior is the only way to come into a relationship with God.
• We believe​ in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whom the indwelling Christian is enabled to live a godly life. We believe that the power and the biblical usage of the gifts of the Spirit should be evidenced in the church today.
• We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in Christ, and the evidence of that unity being demonstrated by how we love one another.

HOW THE GOAL IS ACCOMPLISHED
To accomplish our goal we partner with pastors, churches, denominations and missions organizations to equip God's people with tools to discover Him, know Him and serve Him.

Where it began.

Vertical Divider

Robbie Harrington and Kellie Haldeman established Ancient Promise Ministries in 2008 through prayer and a call to disciple God’s people. He made it clear they were to reach people in Africa by helping them to know Jesus Christ in spirit and in truth. Diana Berns joined the team at the end of 2008. Together they began to develop curricula and travel to Africa to share what God had revealed about how to live devoted to Him.

It was apparent that the people we were serving needed more than impactful information given to them about God—they needed to learn how to discover God themselves. The focus became to equip pastoral and collegiate leadership with tools to accurately interpret the Word so they would be able to communicate what they had discovered to those in their care.

Ancient Promise Ministries has grown into a body of people committed to the call to establish the kingdom of Jesus Christ on the earth. We join God in His purposes by equipping others to discover Him, know Him through His Word, and live as testimonies of His love and mercy to those around them.

We partner with pastors, churches, denominations and mission organizations to reach immigrant people groups living in the United States and in villages and cities abroad.

The Reach.

God has given us the opportunity to reach pastors and church leaders who do not have the opportunity for formal training. We are currently working abroad in Kenya, Tanzania and Ethiopia. Avenues to reach Spanish–speaking pastors in the U.S. are being developed.

East Africa

Our work abroad began in Kenya and Tanzania in 2009. We have formed partnerships with one of the largest evangelical denomination in Tanzania. We have trained over 250 pastors, missionaries and denominational leaders.

The Horn of Africa

In 2015, because of our work in Tanzania, we were introduced to a pastor from Addis Abba, Ethiopia. This connection bought us to a Kenyan missionary who has been working in Ethiopia for 16 years. His knowledge of the people and the work he has already established is a perfect match for the training we bring.

U.S.

God is opening avenues to impact the immigrant Spanish speaking population in California and Colorado. Our materials are being translated into Spanish so the training can begin.
