Our Vision

26,000 people a day are becoming Christians in Asia! Wow – isn’t our God amazing to be moving so mightily in the East? Our family is strategically placed in Thailand, which is surrounded by countries where Christians face intimidation, prison, and even death for being followers of Christ. These believers have decided to follow Jesus no matter the cost and come to our central location to receive training.
 
The greatest need in Asia is for discipleship. There are thousands of people coming to Christ, but they lack a firm foundation and a lot of false teaching has cropped up. Our ministry is providing believers with a strong theological foundation so that they are equipped to do ministry and to expand God’s kingdom.
 
We want to see is a strong Asian church where the believers have the tools and knowledge they need to reach their own people. Greg is teaching with Asia Biblical Theological Seminary and the goal is to equip pastors and Asian leaders to go to their churches and provide a firm Biblical foundation so that they can then go out and share the gospel effectively in Asia. 

Equipping
Leaders to reach Asia. 
Our vision is to equip leaders in Asia for ministry, giving them the tools they need to create strong, Biblically-rooted, reproducing churches.  They can then go to their people and “equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ” (Ephesians 4:12).  We want church leaders to understand how to read, teach, and apply God’s Word.

Empowering
Asian churches to reproduce. 
By equipping Asian leaders, we give their churches the tools they need to reproduce.  Mission work has historically struggled in Asia when Christian movements were dependent upon Westerners.  When Asians have reached their own people, however, growth has been much greater.  By equipping Asian leaders and by extension their churches, we empower them to reach their own culture.  Because there is no need for them to learn a new language and culture, church planting and reproduction happens more quickly
(Ephesians 4:13).

Expanding
God's kingdom in Asia. 
As Biblically-rooted Asian churches take up the mantle of reaching their own people in obedience to Christ’s commission, the expansion of God’s kingdom in Asia will not only be exponential, but this growth will also be built upon a solid foundation that isn't "tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine" (Ephesians 4:14). Through empowering Asian leaders and their churches, we play a role in making a “body that builds itself up in love” (Ephesians 4:16).
