Hope Restored, Lives Rebuilt Rooted in Christ
Hope Restored, Lives Rebuilt Rooted in Christ
Our Mission & Values
All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation.2 Corinthians 5:18
Mission
At Exodus Chattanooga, we believe the heart of the Gospel is reconciliation, the powerful work of restoring what is broken and renewing what has been lost. We stand on the conviction that no one is beyond the reach of God’s reconciling grace. Our mission is to help bridge the gap between a fractured past and a restored future for veterans, widows, and individuals in recovery.
As a Christ-centered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, referral-based ministry, we partner with, recovery programs, and community organizations to connect individuals with the resources, relationships, and support they need to rebuild their lives through Christ.
By speaking truth with compassion and extending tangible grace, we walk alongside people as they reclaim their dignity, strengthen their foundations, and grow through authentic relationships. At Exodus Chattanooga, we believe lasting transformation is the fruit of reconciliation—restoring hope, renewing purpose, and empowering every person to step confidently into the future God has prepared for them.
