The vision of Eagles' Summit is embedded in the scriptures in the book of Nehemiah 1:3 and 2:6. In Nehemiah's memoirs, he shares his account of his strong desire to bring restoration to his native Jewish people after their Babylonian captivity. While Ezra once brought about spiritual establishment, there was still a need for physical restoration and stability. Though Nehemiah was in a high position, when he saw that his people were in great affliction, he chose to leave his place of royalty and honor to restore and rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. What a wonderful account of God's complete redemptive plan for our lives once we come to know Him as our personal Saviour and Lord. 

During Pastor Lilly's thirty-two years plus of ministry experience, he witnessed that though many Christians came to know Jesus as their personal Savior, they still were not living the victorious life that God planned salvation to bring us. God's people were born again but their finances were torn down and they were bound by debt. Their names were written in the Lamb's Book of Life, but they were still bound by past wounds and emotionally cast down. The people were broken, addicted to drugs and alcohol, and generally dysfunctional. They would worship at church on Sundays and Wednesdays but the remainder of the week they were imprisoned by ungodly marriages, facing challenges with their children, underemployed, underpaid, living beneath their means and having no idea of how to actually walk in the promises and inheritance and that they were being told they could have. Though Jesus had set them free, they remained very much in captivity.

While praying fervently for God's people, Pastor Lilly received his life's assignment in a vision. Pastor has an understanding that his responsibility as a leader of God's people far surpasses the first step of leading them to Christ. He also has accepted the responsibility to disciple them by nurturing the entire Christian growth process beginning with the acceptance of Jesus Christ as personal Saviour through to the equipping process until they grow up in all things into Him who is the head, Christ. Ephesians 4: 11-15

The ministry's logo shown here is a pictorial description of the vision for restoration given to Pastor Lilly. The logo compares the restoration process to a man embarking on a mountain climb not completely aware of the difficult places he’ll have to go through in order to reach the top. He makes it to the summit, but the condition of his clothes indicates that his journey to the summit left him torn, bruised, and at times bleeding. Nevertheless, he chose to make the climb. Only one who has accomplished such a climb can truly understand what it takes to get to the top. Only he can advise on which directions to take, which dangers to avoid, how to conquer each cliff without falling off and how to walk through the valley in order to reach the summit.
