Biblical Teachings
Join us every Sunday for the teachings of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.As a Ministry
We believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross and shed his blood as a sacrifice for our sins. He arose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father.
(1 Pet.2:24; Heb. 9:11-14; 1 Cor. 15:3-8; Acts 2:32-36; Heb. 10:12.)
We have been commissioned to serve Jesus Christ and His people- To minister divine healing, deliverance, restoration, Salvation and hope to His precious people like you. Let us pray for you today. The Bible says this: "…the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much" James 5:16 KJV.
Psalms 34:19 – Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.
Mission Statement: Is to equip, encourage, and energize Christians and to address questions about the believer’s daily walk with God and the Bible.
Missions and Outreach Ministries
We believe in healings, miracles, signs, and wonders. We are not just another ministry, we are called to bring back healing revival and reformation in North America, and the Nations of the World and be a light to the world setting the captives free according to Isaiah 61 and Luke 4:18-19.
International Ministry
Apostle Joel and Reverend Anne Gatuna are the Founders of BOGIM a non-profit (501c3) Christian Ministry located In Elkhart, Indiana. This Ministry has a passion to evangelize the world by spreading the Salvation Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and to serve the spiritual and physical needs of orphans, children, women, youth and other people in need living in the most deprived and impoverished communities of Kenya and throughout Africa. The physical needs are met in part through a philanthropic activity called Tabitha’s closet (Acts 9:36) that cloth the less fortunate in communities through Churches by distributing clothes, shoes, etc for free.
“Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord, and He will reward them for what they have done” (Proverbs 19:17).
Message of the Cross
We must never take the offense out of the gospel, lest we convey a message that fails to show the sinfulness of man. We should not seek to be offensive, 1 Peter 3:15 says, "sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence." While the message of the Cross is offensive, Christians should speak the truth in love, not in anger or with a spirit of self-righteousness.
The Gospel of Christ
We must ever be conscious of the reality that it is the gospel, not our persuasive speech, nor our ability to market the church or even our Lord, but it is the power of the gospel itself, applied to the hearts of the hearers by the Holy Spirit that leads to salvation.
If you trust that Jesus died for your sins and want to receive a new life through Him, say the following prayer:
"Dear God, I know I am a sinner. I believe Jesus died to forgive me of my sins. I now accept Your offer of eternal life. Thank You for forgiving me of all my sin. Thank You for my new life. From this day forward, I will choose to follow You." Amen!

God
We believe the One true God manifest Himself in three persons: The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit known as the Trinity or Triune God.
Jesus

He arose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Majesty on High, and His sure return for his bride. 1 Pet.2:24; Heb. 9:11-14; 1 Cor. 15:3-8; Acts 2:32-36; Heb. 10:12.
