Partnerships
New Covenant Ministries Int’l (NCMI)
THE MINISTRY TEAM WE PARTNER WITH - New Covenant Ministries International (NCMI) is a trans-local ministry team with an apostolic heart, made up of men and women who, through partnership, help elders build their local churches in doing the work of God's Kingdom in their regions. This work equips local churches to fulfill the work of the Kingdom and the discipling of the nations with the mission of knowing Jesus and making Him known!
RECOGNITION - We recognize the Biblical basis and need for partnership. It is not God's design that any church or leader fulfills the Great Commission independently. IRC recognizes the Biblical basis and needs for apostolic-prophetic team ministry, as scripture outlines (Ephesians 4: 11–16).
RELATIONSHIP - Relationships and accountability are strategic keys to the effective ministry of the Church. As such, “friendship, before function” is a vital value. We are on a mission together, committed and submitted to each other, serving and actively building our relationships.
RESPONSIBILITY - As we partner, we take responsibility for the message of the Gospel, the ministry of the Holy Spirit, the mission of the ministry, and our mandate to the nations. We do this together. And we share in God's rewards and the extraordinary inheritance for us together. We share in the increase, the blessing, and the breakthrough worldwide.
Shepherd’s Heart Ministry (SHM)
Ministry Leaders often find themselves burned out, with their marriages in trouble and most of them don't have a trusted confidant they can turn too. Shepherd's Heart Ministry exists to help those individuals. Under the leadership of founders Larry and Lorrie Russell, SHM cares for ministry leaders in the United States and across the globe with individual, marriage and crisis counseling.
They provide a comprehensive range of services in the areas of intensive individual, marital or family therapy; pastoral care; spiritual and emotional healing; restoration; and spiritual mentoring and guidance at one of the Shepherd's Heart Retreat Centers. Larry Russell is a vital advisor to IRC’s elders. IRC Elders, Mark and Kara Harper, have known Larry since 1996. The premarital ministry that IRC ministers to engaged couples was developed by Larry and Lorrie Russell, and is the same curriculum which Mark and Kara walked through as a young, engaged couple in 1997.
Worship and the Word Movement (WWM)
Worship and the Word Movement is a missionary and movement incubator that loves to help people accomplish the dreams that God has put on their hearts. They do this by helping establish spiritual foundation, organizational structure, relational connections, and the resources needed. Dave and Tara Powers are the visionaries behind this ministry. At WWM, everything is done to see people encounter God’s Presence and genuine revival all over the world. Their desire to live out the Greatest Commandments and help fulfill the Great Commission is done by empowering people to receive revelation from God’s Word, all to bring the Name of Jesus glory.
Dave and Tara have traveled extensively in more than 20 countries as missionaries, speaking and leading worship at churches, conferences, YWAM bases, house churches, colleges, festivals, seminaries, houses of prayer, and retreats. They are worshipers, speakers, songwriters, collaborators, spiritual mentors, community organizers, event producers, and dream champions! They LOVE Jesus and people like crazy! Impact Rock helps support the Worship and the Word Movement. Dave often ministers at IRC.
