To glorify God, exalt Christ by speaking truth to current issues in our culture. To address issues which are often ‘taboo’ to discuss them in an environment where we seek to apply the truth of the gospel, not merely to talk about them to be controversial; with a particular focus on equipping and maturing women on issues relating directly to them in an Australian context.
