WHO WE ARE
Tov Nation — A Beacon of Transformation
OUR NAME
What Does "Tov Nation" Mean?
The name Tov Nation draws from the Biblical creation story in Genesis 1. "Tov" is a Hebrew word meaning good, pleasant, and — most importantly — functional. When God created, He saw that it was TOV: Good, Pleasant, and Functional.
"Nation" speaks to both the individual and community. Together, Tov Nation means: Functional Individual and Functional Community — people restored to their God-given purpose.
"We go and make disciples of those struggling with addiction — the nation of the addicted."
