“Through Project Exodus, I see lives changed, transformed and delivered.

I see revival hit our nation. Exodus breaks boundaries and limitations. I see a

bright future.”

KEVIN PILLAYPastor, Jump Youth Mission

“I am really excited about what Project Exodus is doing. Project Exodus has

brought the subject of compulsive behaviours and addictions to the pulpit

where they belong. This is in response to the Commission for us to set the

captives free. The project also helps to demystify mental illness, thus ensuring

that the Church becomes socially relevant. On top of that, Project Exodus

empowers and equips churches to be able to actively help its members.”

DR WENDY GREYVENSTEYNClinical Psychologist

“I am profoundly impressed by this programme. I think it is absolutely

phenomenal. I can completely understand why so many people come to a

place of freedom through it.”

MARK VAN PLETSENPastor, Life Changers Church

Cape Town, Western Cape

“I firmly believe that the church has to be involved in the toughest

challenges that our cities can throw at us. Project Exodus is an incredible

program and partnership that enables local churches to have a big impact

in the recovery of those suffering with addiction. It has to be one of the

most exciting things that our church has run at.”

“I AM the Lord, your God, who brought you out of

Egypt, out of the land of slavery.” EXODUS 20:2

The book of Exodus is a story of redemption, which begins

with the oppression of a nation under external rule – but ends

with their freedom in a promised land. In this story, God

leads His people on a miraculous journey out of slavery,

revealing Himself as gracious and compassionate Deliverer;

a powerful King who hears our cries and is able to liberate

us from our bondage.

Similarly, Project Exodus is a strategy to lead as many

people as possible out of the darkness and into the

light; out of addiction and into recovery. Pointing to

God as the ultimate restorer of life, Project Exodus

equips individuals with vital knowledge and skills,

required for sustainable recovery.

BIBLICAL MANDATES

Then Jesus told them this parable: “Suppose one of you has a hundred

sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the

open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? And

when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home.

Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice

with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ LUKE 15:3-7

Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth

has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all

nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of

the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded

you. MATTHEW 28:18-20

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has

anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind

up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and

release from darkness the prisoners. ISAIAH 61:1

Harnesses the power & coverage

of the networked local Church.

THE HEART IS THAT NO ONE IS LEFT BEHIND. Luke 15: 3-7
