A Redemptive Company
"In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace."
Ephesians 1:7
What is ARC? Like, welding? Or Noah’s big boat?
ARC simply stands for “A Redemptive Company”. What does this mean?
​
Pathfinder exists for more than its own survival and its own success. Pathfinder is the beginning of a worldwide movement of redemption.
Which begs the question:
What is redemption? Does that mean you hire a bunch of convicts?
Not exactly, let’s explain:
​
re-deem (verb): make up for the negative aspects of something
​
Every human being carries with them some kind of negative aspect from their lives. Most of us call that “baggage”. Maybe it’s a failed relationship. Or a plan that didn’t work out. They let someone down. Addiction. Someone they were counting on . . . didn’t come through. They trusted an authority figure that exploited them. They exploited others. Broken promises. An opportunity that never came to fruition. Abuse, neglect, defeat.
​
Enter Jesus Christ. A man who died to redeem all those things.
​
"In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace." Ephesians 1:7
But Pathfinder is not Jesus Christ. Pathfinder is a company made up of imperfect, fallen people in need of redemption themselves. However, we believe our ultimate mission is to redeem others by:
Cornerstone #1: We strive to call people UP not OUT
UP: We live and demonstrate a higher standard. We get in the trenches of life with people.
​
OUT: We berate, criticize, chastise, offer no solutions
​
When we find a situation that is not up to standard, we show, live, and encourage a better way
​
Up is a blessing. Out is a curse
Cornerstone #2: We move from survival to thrival*
*not a word, we know.
We get in the trenches with our team members on topics of:
-
Budgeting, managing, and saving money
-
Repairing credit & reduce debt
-
Making credit work for them
-
Securing loans at reasonable rates
-
Buying a house
-
Getting education and training
-
Ensuring a quality education for their children
-
Accessing quality health resources
Cornerstone #3: We move our focus from inward to outward
A person operating in thrive mode can move others into thrive mode.
​
Thrive mode compounds.
​
And a bunch of regular people change the world.
