OUR PURPOSE AND VALUES

AWAKENING A GENERATION. CATALYSING TRANSFORMATION.

Loving Community | Spirit-Filled Ministry | Teaching Biblically | Gospel Opportunity

Loving Community: We believe in the Holy Trinity! A God who Himself exists in loving-community. And so we are committed to creating environments that feel like family; where we celebrate diversity, champion humility, and advocate for unity. When that requires encouragement, we give it; comfort, we offer it; and challenge, we bring it. We believe that fun gives life and builds community. And so we are committed to intentionally creating environments that enable and celebrate the life-giving force of fun; where friendships are forged and memories are made. We believe in the power of gathering together as one, knowing that we can accomplish so much more together than we ever could alone. And so we are committed to ensuring the Limitless community enriches the life of the local church community; where the ripple affect of gathering together is felt for months and years to come. Because what we’re building here isn’t about individuals making history, but a family in unity who change the world as a community.

Spirit-Filled Ministry: We believe in the Holy Spirit! We believe that He is the only one who can transform our lives, heal our hearts, restore our bodies, and empower us to bring transformation to our communities. And so we are committed to creating environments that are unashamedly spiritual, where the Holy Spirit is given free rein to move in power, and where young people are led with gentleness and clarity into transforming encounters that leave them changed forever!

Teaching Biblically: We believe in the Holy Scriptures! We believe that, ‘all scripture is God-breathed’ (2 Timothy 3:16). We believe that, ‘the word of God is living and active’ (Hebrews 4:12). And we believe that, ‘the word of the Lord endures for ever’ (1 Peter 1:25). And so we are committed to unapologetically counter-cultural, biblically faithful teaching, that forms young people into Christlikeness, draws them deeper into God, develops them in spiritual maturity, equips them for daily life with God, and inspires them to live whole-heartedly for Jesus!

Gospel Opportunity: We believe in Jesus! We believe that, ‘Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved’ (Acts 4:11). We believe that no one comes to the Father except through Jesus (John 14:6). And we believe that it is the Lord’s desire for ‘all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth’ (1 Timothy 2:4). And so we are committed to creating an environment that is accessible to young people who have never heard the gospel, where the good news is clearly and regularly preached, and where the opportunity is given every day for young people to say ‘Yes!’ to following Jesus for the first time.

Google Maps ///paints.crib.acted

What time do things start and finish? What time can I arrive?

Arrival on site is from 10:00 on Saturday 9 August.

The First meeting is at 19:00 on Saturday 9 August.

The last night’s excitement finishes at 23:30 on Wednesday 13 August.

You must have fully left the site by 10:00 on Thursday 14 August.

Can I see a programme?

The day planner isn’t normally finalised until 2 or 3 months before the event. Keep an eye on our social media channels and we’ll let you know when it’s ready for you to see and how to get hold of it. The programme will be available on site.

What should I expect in meetings?

The Limitless Family believes that God is just that: Limitless!

The meetings will often start with a time of praise and worship - sometimes people will have their hands in the air or jump around or clap. There will usually be a talk about something from the bible put into a relevant way to challenge you and your beliefs in our Limitless God, and then time where we invite you to respond to what’s been spoken about. In this time we invite God to come and heal people, to change people and to let God work in our lives. Sometimes this is all very civilised and sometimes it’s a bit weird! BUT, whatever happens and however it happens, our team leading the meeting will try to explain clearly about what is expected of you, what is going on and what God is doing. We also encourage you to pray for the people around you during these times.

What should I expect in ministry times?

An important part of Limitless Festival is creating space for the Holy Spirit to minister in people’s lives. We believe that this is where the real transformation happens, and as such seek to prioritise this time in our meetings. We seek to facilitate these ministry times according to the following principles….

WE WAIT ON GOD: We believe God moves in stillness (1 Kings 19:11-13, Psalm 27:14, Psalm 46:10, Isaiah 40:31), and thus we don’t need to stir people up into a frenzy in order to meet with Jesus. Instead we lead the young people through a process of stillness and waiting, to allow the Holy Spirit to move as he intends. We are careful to avoid hype and auto-suggestion. We also believe in the role of anointed musicians assisting in ministry (2 Kings 3:14-16, 1 Samuel 16:23), and as such are comfortable with music during ministry, but we are also comfortable with waiting on God in silence.
WE LISTEN TO HIM: As we wait we are listening to cues from the Spirit. Is he asking us to wait longer? Is he asking us to lead a specific response to something? Does he want to give us a word of knowledge?
WE DO WHAT HE SAYS: Whatever the Holy Spirit asks of us we will do. The idea is to let the Spirit lead us as we lead the young people. As we do so we seek to...
- Acknowledge the odd - God can do weird things if he wants to, but we won’t be weird! We’ll acknowledge unusual things in a usual way.
- Explain what is going on and reassure people as we go - We don’t assume that everyone is familiar with what the Spirit is doing, so if people begin to cry / laugh / fall over / shake etc, we explain what is happening and reassure people that it’s safe and good.
- Explain that it’s OK if people are not feeling/experiencing anything - People can sometimes feel that there is something wrong with them if they are not “feeling” anything when people around them seem to be encountering God. So we remind people that feeling and encountering are not the same thing, and that God still loves them and notices them even if they are not feeling anything.

If you or your young people are not used to praying together, then we have made some helpful guidlines to help protect everynoe invovled. You can read them here.

By following these principles we seek to help people engage with the ministry of the Holy Spirit in a way that is clear and loving for all concerned.
