Returning to What Was Always Meant to Lead
Project 7:13 is a registered nonprofit (501(c)(3)) built on a realization drawn from Mark 7:13—that it is possible for the Word of God to be present in language and structure, yet ineffective in practice.
This does not happen through open rejection. It happens gradually, as other influences begin to take precedence.
Over time, traditions, habits, and cultural patterns begin to shape how people think, decide, and live. These influences are not always wrong in themselves, but when they replace what should be foundational, they begin to alter outcomes.
Project 7:13 exists to confront that shift.
Not by introducing something new, but by restoring what was already established and bringing it back into its rightful place.
The Drift We Are Addressing
​
Across different environments, there is a pattern that continues to surface.
There is visible activity, but not always alignment. There is belief, but not always surrender. There is motivation, but not always truth.
This creates a form of living that appears functional but lacks depth and consistency.
-
Faith becomes something expressed but not fully lived
-
Purpose is pursued but not clearly understood
-
Discipline is practiced but not grounded in truth
People are not necessarily moving away from God intentionally. They are being shaped by other influences more consistently.
Project 7:13 exists to interrupt that pattern and bring clarity where it has been lost.
From Hype to Surrender
​
In many spaces today, what appears as faith is often driven by expression, emotion, or motivation. While these can be meaningful, they do not necessarily produce transformation.
Surrender is different.
​
It is not based on feeling. It is not sustained by motivation. It requires a reordering—of priorities, of identity, and of control.
It is quiet, but it is decisive.
Project 7:13 is committed to moving beyond surface-level engagement and toward a way of living that is rooted in truth and alignment.
Our Mandate
​
The work of Project 7:13 is centered on restoration.
Not of appearance, but of order.
Not of systems, but of alignment.
This includes:
-
Challenging cultural patterns that distort truth
-
Addressing motivations that replace faith
-
Re-establishing the authority of the Word of God in daily life
-
Guiding individuals toward genuine surrender
This work applies across individuals, families, athletes, leaders, and organizations.
OUR ROADMAP
VISION
To see individuals and communities grounded in truth, where identity, purpose, and direction are not shaped by external pressure but flow from alignment with God.
MISSION
To dismantle the beliefs, patterns, and motivations that make the Word of God ineffective in people’s lives, and to restore a way of living that is rooted in truth, alignment, and surrender.
How the Work Is Carried Out
Project 7:13 operates through a structured and expanding framework designed to address different areas of formation.
These include:
-
Teaching and discipleship environments
-
Structured training experiences
-
Digital learning platforms
-
Partnerships with institutions and communities
-
Practical tools that reinforce alignment
Within this structure, specific frameworks have been developed to address targeted needs.
Our primary frameworks
HIL (His Image & Likeness) is one of the primary frameworks developed within Project 7:13.
​
While the broader mission addresses alignment across different areas of life, HIL focuses specifically on identity—particularly in performance-driven environments.
In today’s landscape, athletes are being developed at a high level externally while often remaining undefined internally.
At the same time, opportunities through NIL have expanded access to visibility, partnerships, and financial growth.
These developments are valuable. They open doors that did not exist before.
However, they do not address the internal foundation required to handle those opportunities well.
HIL focuses on that foundation.
It helps individuals understand who they are apart from performance, how to operate within structure, and how to engage with opportunity without being shaped by it.
Our Team.
Project 713 is driven by a dedicated team of visionary leaders, creative strategists, and passionate servants who bring diverse expertise to the mission. From business innovation and digital media to community outreach and empowerment, each member plays a vital role in advancing the call of the Kingdom.
