God’s Kingdom is likened to a mustard seed that grows, sown, and nurtured—just as God honors His people’s steps of faith, even the seemingly smallest ones.
We all take part in the Great Commission by making disciples. At the same time, we also serve hand in hand with the Body of Christ extending Christ’s love to permeate our nation.
How do we do this?
Our church serves and collaborates with national Christian ministries like the Philippine Council of Evangelical Churches (PCEC), Global Filipino Movement, and NGO Pamilya Muna Pilipinas to support nation-building initiatives that promote Christian values and uphold God’s word in our society.
We also recently partnered with TransformNation for a Breakfast Forum where we gathered Christian leaders and marketplace professionals to pray, worship, and encourage each other to fulfill God’s purposes in our nation as we share the gospel with every sector of our society.
The annual celebration of the National Bible Day is also important to us as we strongly believe in the transformative power of God’s Word to shape our moral character. This enables us to effectively demonstrate and proclaim the gospel in our nation.
Apart from these, we also conduct various initiatives in the local church closest to you!
A Picture of the Church
This gives us the picture of the biblical metaphor of the net–where each thread symbolizes each church member in Christ. Our nets, however strong, benefit from being part of a larger, more powerful whole. This is why fostering a greater relational connection with the whole body of Christ is important.
We face challenges, and each local church is a work in progress. The church is even made up of people who are navigating insecurities, past hurts, theological differences, spiritual opposition, and more—but, at the end of the day, let us be reminded that the devil only seeks to delay God’s work and that he can only hinder, not stop, the inevitable triumph of the gospel.
The Bible offers us a powerful image: from a garden in Genesis to a flourishing city in Revelation. It’s a story of reaching outwards, of transforming cities.
This is our call, and the role of the church: to honor God and make His name known to nations. We do this by reaching out to the students, equipping marketplace leaders, discipling families, and reminding every child of God that their calling, no matter how seemingly ordinary, holds immense value in God’s eyes.
May God give us the strength to pursue His mission alongside His body of believers.
Call to Prayer:
- Pray for the church’s unity in mission and purpose.
- Pray for the church to live out its calling and be the godly influence to the different sectors of society.
- Pray for the next generation of leaders to rise and take the lead–and that they may have strong biblical foundations as early as now as we disciple them in campus ministry.
