Through this approach, they integrate the wisdom of the Christian faith with the science and practical knowledge of their professional medical careers. In their writing and teaching, they incorporate these ideas to address the needs of the whole person.
TTF speakers are seminary trained and uphold the Bible as the central authority for teaching. In their classes and presentations, they incorporate biblical teachings with the knowledge from their professional medical careers. This integrated approach leads to well-rounded health and spiritual vitality.
Why are we called, "The True Foundation"?
It is our belief that the best foundation for people's wellbeing and fulfillment rests upon The True Foundation—the truth about God, the truth about each person, and God's plans for Humanity (why He created us). These are the central bricks of the True Foundation upon which we can securely rest.
Truths about God - Character traits of God on which we focus are His love, His power and His holiness (goodness and purity).
Truths about Each person – Elements of our human nature that we focus on are that we are created in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:26), God delights in us, and He has delegated authority to us to make a positive impact in the physical and spiritual realms.
Reasons why God created us – His plan for humanity is to have close friendship with us, for us to glorify Him, and for us to operate in an integral partnership with Him in ministry.
As we renew our mind with truth and break free of misconceptions of God, misconceptions of ourselves and mistaken assumptions about the limitations that we place on our life, we will become able to live a much more joyful, satisfying and meaningful life.
Having an accurate understanding of God, how He views us, and His will for our lives thoroughly transforms the way we think, feel and interact with others. It changes how we spend our time, energy and resources. Regularly, God redirects us to better (and often bigger) things than we would have come up with on our own (Ephesians 3:20-21).
