Encouraging and challenging individuals to live whole, purpose-filled lives!
Purpose Statement
Deep Calleth Unto Deep's purpose is to empower individuals to walk in wholeness by exchanging unproductive life patterns with self-esteem and uniqueness of purpose through Christ Jesus!
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me
Because He has appointed me
To preach the gospel to the poor
He has sent me to heal the broken-hearted
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind
To set at liberty those who are oppressed
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord
Luke 4:18-19.NKIV
History
Deep Calleth Unto Deep was birthed in May 1997 when founder Jacqueline Peart began writing poetry for the first time. She shares the testimony of her newfound gift with audiences around the globe as she explains that while she was on holiday in Portugal with her family, the urge to find a pen and paper was in fact the prompting of the Holy Spirit, stirring her to begin this new and unique ministry and journey.
While writing her first book in the Deep Calleth Unto Deep Series, In Search of Wholeness, Jacqueline sat by a beach watching the sea when the name was impressed upon her.
It was years later that Jacqueline began to understand the true depth of her ministry depicted by its name. In her words: 'I thought God gave me the name because of the setting in which the poetry and ministry began. As the years continued I realised that it was because God wants us to go deeper and past the superficial levels of wholeness, He desires truth to be realised in our inward parts (Psalms 51:6NKJV), which means we can't pretend or wear masks to cover our wounds because He wants to heal them once and for all, and that means going to the root of issues.'
You see, I, like so many others, was living a life beneath God's ordained plan for us. Through life experiences, hurts and disappointments without Christ I used external methods to heal myself, for example, relationships, socialising, and so on. Each time I got a knock in life, I'd use my own manmade remedy to resolve it, that is, take revenge, use retail therapy and the likes. I hadn't realised that I needed Jesus at that time to truly heal me of every emotional, physical and spiritual hurt.
We all need Him to show us the knocks, scars and wounds we have experienced so He can make us whole again!
Since it's inception, Deep Calleth Unto Deep has become more than a book and tape series - it is a ministry to the broken and hurting who seek Wholeness.
Jacqueline's ministry comes with a health warning: 'Attending a conference or reading one of her books can seriously improve your health.'
The challenging yet encouraging style this ministry offers is truly a refreshing change.
In addition to the books and CDs, Jacqueline hosts Deep Calleth Unto Deep conferences every year, has published four books and written ten (watch this space for the launch dates for the full compliment of books), and developed tools and promotional goods such as cups, pens and book marks to help those on their journey from brokenness to wholeness stay motivated!
God desires wholeness and holiness and to truly become whole we must allow God by His Spirit to transform us by the renewing of our minds (Romans 12:2 NKJV) and this in turn will cause us to become not only whole, but holy too.
Deep Calleth Unto Deep helps its audiences to begin to peel back the pages of their lives so God can reveal and exchange their brokenness for wholeness.
Our Core Values
As a ministry we have a number of values that are at the centre of how we operate. Those values are:
Biblical and Theological Integrity
We believe that the Bible is 'inspired' by God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.'
2 Timothy 3:16-17 NKJV
Sensitivity to the Holy Spirit in All Things
We seek to be 'led by the Spirit' (Romans 8:14). By this we mean, attuned to the promptings and moving of the Holy Spirit. This involves direction, instruction and manifestations of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12:7-11 and not 'grieving the Holy Spirit.' Eph. 4:30
Commitment to Moral Integrity
Holiness of life and conduct is an essential part of our fulfillment to the divine command, 'Be Holy for I am Holy' 1Peter 1:15
Commitment to Prayer
We are committed to praying to God in and about all things.
1Thessalonians 5:17
