About
Jordan Cernek (MTS, Reformed Baptist Seminary '23) founded BM in 2012.
A simple mission
Serving God both universally on the web and locally in Wisconsin and Illinois, the prayer of this ministry is that you and your family would be grounded in the truth of the Gospel. Our goal is to equip the Church with resources that will encourage you to live boldly for Jesus.
Founded in 2012 by Jordan Cernek, the purpose of this ministry is based on three core truths: God is holy, man is sinful, and Jesus is the only savior. First of all, there is one true, holy God, revealed in creation and through his Son whom he sent. Secondly, man is depraved, utterly rebellious and sinful. Lastly, it is only through faith in Christ that we are saved by his grace alone - regenerated by his Spirit, recipients of the gift of faith by his grace, and growing into the likeness of him by the power of the Holy Spirit.
May God grant continued grace to guide us into all truth, so that we may know how to live in a godly way (John 16:13, 2 Peter 1:3).

Why "Beyond Mediocrity"?
To begin with, mediocre is simply another word for normal. Normal is defined as "conforming to a standard of average, typical, usual, or expected."Â Operating from this definition, Beyond Mediocrity seeks to challenge the status-quo - the expected, usual beliefs of the general public - and call into question everything that is considered typical behavior, in order to bring every thought and action under the authority and headship of the truth of Jesus Christ our Lord (Ephesians 1:22).
