About Wrecked.org: Vision, Mission, and Staff

Vision

Wrecked is an online publication born out of a movement. We’re members of a generation that is not content to view the world through the drab lens of materialism and hand-me-down religion. We want more. We want to live life on purpose, actively participating in every gift God has given us.

We want to leave this world in a different state than the one in which we found it. Maybe we’re a scrap of conversation that has been going on for years; maybe we’re a voice in the wilderness. Whatever has come before us, we want our voice to be authentic. And we want to be heard.

We won’t settle for the comfortable; we won’t negotiate our time and space in history. We recognize that we’re misfits, and that may not be a bad thing. We don’t want to drift through life, as a broken world groans for redemption. We are Wrecked for the Ordinary.

Mission

Wrecked seeks to awaken and challenge its readers to follow Jesus, the greatest misfit that ever lived, in a world that has been numbed by pop Christianity.

We want to help our readers embrace radical lifestyles in their local context and to connect to the world around them through engaging in incarnational living. In other words, if someone reads a Wrecked article, and nothing about their life changes, then we haven’t done our jobs.

We do not just seek what is, but rather what should be.

Jeff Goins

Jeff is the founder and editor-in-chief of Wrecked. He and a few friends launched the website in January 2007 with the vision of sharing stories about how people “got wrecked” by God.

He lives in Nashville, TN with his wife and works out of his home (usually on the couch).

He loves blogging, reading several books at a time (actually finishing some of them), and eating sushi from the grocery store. You can visit his blog at Goins, Writer.
