…is a Church filled people being radically saved all the time. Individuals and families having a powerful encounter with CHRIST and finding grace, mercy, healing and wholeness for their lives.
…is a church deeply rooted in the WORD and its people devoted to discovering His Truth, obeying His commands and believing His promises.
…a Church marked by deep unconditional love in Christ for all people regardless of race, age, gender and diverse backgrounds. A love not just in words but in deed. A Church that practices grace and forgiveness but also gently restores his/her brethren to Truth.
I dream of a Church filled with fresh and passionate Christ-followers baptised in waters, publicly expressing their faith and allegiance to God; baptised in the Holy Spirit, boldly operating in the gifts and power of the Holy Ghost.
I dream of a Church that effectively reaches generations. Where kids grow strong in life and learning to love and honour the Lord. Where the youth are vibrant and contagious in their passion for Jesus. A church that remains young at heart, filled with adults mature in wisdom yet still eager to learn; steadfast yet flexible and open to change. Where the wisdom of the old effectively synergises with the strength of the youth.
…a Church that is supernaturally natural and naturally supernatural; where divine healings take place, signs and wonders manifest and people are set free from all demonic influences and bondages by the power of the blood of JESUS.
I dream of a Church family where brokenness and pain finds Christ’s restoration and comfort; the Cross enabling us to look truly free at all wounds of our past; that heals not just the body but the mind and emotions as well.
The Church I dream of is a Church selfless in kindness, generous in encouragement, relentless in prayers, and faithful in giving that moves the Kingdom of God forward.
…a safe place where people with questions can find answers and feel loved and accepted while on the journey of discovery.
…a Church that is a Leadership Development Greenhouse where discipleship is a lifestyle and members see their own leadership potential and potentials are realised. A House of Leaders - Christlike in Character - Excellent, Integrous, Honouring, Faith-Driven.
…a growing community where faith is lived out and believes we can change nations; where individuals outgrow their own small worlds and live larger impacting suburbs and schools and offices and every spheres of influence God positions us in.
…a Church congregation so blessed that their abundance of harvest are spilling out. A Church instrumental for good deeds, poverty eradication, employment creation, entrepreneurial development; influencing industries of business, arts and entertainment, politics, education, sports, medicine and education.
…a Church ON MISSION, taking seriously the Great Commission and relentlessly proclaiming the Gospel clearly and powerfully, making disciples of all peoples and all generations.
Oh Yes! I dream of a Church…
I dream of a Church whose hell’s gates cannot prevail against!
A Christ-centred, Bible based, Spirit-filled Church!
A dangerous Church! A Church that looks like, feels like, acts like and talks like JESUS!
The Church I dream could very well might be THIS CHURCH!
But God is the real dreamer and we, His dream!
