Statement of faith
We believe:
The only true God, the sovereign Creator and Sustainer of all things, existing eternally in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Deuteronomy 6: 45; Acts 17:2428; 2 Corinthians 13:14).
The divine inspiration, entire trustworthiness and authority of the Bible in faith and practice (2 Peter 1:2021; 2 Timothy 3:1617; Psalm 119:911, 105; 1 Thessalonians 2:13).
The full deity and humanity of Jesus Christ, who lived as a perfect example, who atoned for the sins of the world at the cross, who was bodily raised from the dead and ascended as both Lord and Savior, and who will return in power and glory in the fullness of time to judge the living and the dead, to consummate history and the eternal plan of God (John 1:1, 14; Colossians 2:9; Hebrews 4:15; Isaiah 53:36; Acts 4:1012; Matthew 26:6364; 2 Timothy 4:1).
The value and dignity of all humankind: originally created in God's image to live in love and holiness, but who became alienated from God and each other because of sin and guilt, and who are justly subject to the judgment of God (Genesis 1:2627; Colossians 1:21; John 12:4748).
The justification, by God's grace, of all who repent and put their faith in Jesus Christ for salvation (Ephesians 2:810; John 3:1617; Romans 4:45).
The present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling and transforming power the Christian is enabled to live out our new life and new calling to evangelism and discipleship of believers within the fellowship of the Church (John 16:7; 1 Corinthians 6:1920; Galatians 5:2223; Matthew 28:1820).
The spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ, with equality across racial, gender and class differences (John 17:2023; Revelation 5:9).
The passages of Scripture associated with each of the statements are not offered as proof texts; rather, they are intended to serve as a beginning place for further study.
All speakers on our annual curriculum have agreed to the MOPS Faith Position Statement and are aware of our Core Ministry Values. While we agree on the basics of faith, we acknowledge that speakers may have differing views on issues unrelated to salvation.

History
Ten years ago, we began to discover challenges with our name. The acronym MOPS immediately conjures a vision of cleaning supplies, which was increasingly derailing compelling conversations about the value of a mothering community. The context of the phrase "mothers of preschoolers" has narrowed over the past 10-15 years to mean only moms who have "3-5-year-olds who attend school", not the broader inclusion of all moms with children ages newborn to 5, that it previously meant in our society. As we expand globally, the name "MOPS" is not often translatable, and when it is has extremely negative connotations. For example, in German MOPS at best, means "mother of pugs" or, at worst, is derogatory slang for breast - not ideal for a mothering organization.
In 2017, our board commissioned our staff to begin an extensive research journey. We conducted focus groups, pastor interviews, meetings with branding experts and other non-profits to determine if our name was becoming a barrier to our mission of engaging moms with the message of Jesus. We asked thousands of questions and spent intense hours in prayer, seeking God's direction at each decision point. As we compiled all the feedback, it became clear that as God has grown this ministry and the organization has expanded, we have outgrown the name MOPS.
And at that point, we mourned because the thought of a name change felt sad and scary. There is so much legacy connected with the name. But we also knew that we needed to be brave if we wanted to continue to be the pioneering movement that God created us to be. So, we said Yes. And we also started asking God for the perfect new name that would lead us into our next 50 years.
