EST International Ministries is a purposeful Christian non-denominational, multi-cultural faith based, five fold ministry located in south Kansas City, Missouri. Our lifestyle is to worship and serve Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior holistically while leading souls to Him through teaching, worship, serving and worldwide outreach.
Our Beliefs
At EST, our faith is best expressed by the Apostles' Creed:
"We believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of Heaven and earth.
We believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; He descended into Hell.
On the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into Heaven, He is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty.
From thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Universal Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body and life everlasting. Amen."
We lead souls to spiritually and passionately follow Jesus.
God-Centered
We worship God for who He is, by celebrating His presence through spirit-filled worship, music, prayer, proclamation and giving.
People-Building
We nurture people for life and service by providing a network of care and outreach in the context of Holy Spirit, scripture-based training and practical ministry opportunity.
World-Focused
We spread Jesus' love and truth to our community, country, and world.
Prayer Power
If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. - John 15:7
Availability to Christ
This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. - John 3:16
Spirit-Filled & Spirit-Led Lifestyle
What you'll get is the Holy Spirit. And when the Holy Spirit comes on you, you will be able to be my witnesses in Jerusalem, all over Judea and Samaria, even to the ends of the world. - Acts 1:8
Spirit-Led Service
Teach me how to live to please you, because you're my God. Lead me by your blessed Spirit into cleared and level pastureland. - Psalms 143:10
Influencing by Love
Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.” Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.” - John 21:16
Outreach
Be quick to give a meal to the hungry, a bed to the homeless - cheerfully. Be generous with the different things God gave you, passing them around so all get in on it: if words, let it be God's words; if help, let it be God's hearty help. - 1 Peter 4:9-11
Nurture
For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building. - 1 Corinthians 3:9
