IDMC 2017 Miri - Plenary4 : Accomplish The Mission

Plenary 4 : Accomplish The Mission
"and to multiply them to win the world for Christ!"
Rev Edmund Chan
18 February 2017
Miri Meritz Hotel

Determining the mission 

What the church is not :

  • A Social Club
  • A Hospital
  • An Army Boot Camp
  • A School
What the church is :
  • A Cause
  • A Community
  • A Corporation - well organised
What the Church is called to BE and to DO :
  • To be Worshippers
  • To be Witnesses - live out gospel
  • To make disciples
5 Steps Towards Building an IDMC - 
church built around a personality would not last.
It takes deep convictions, clear strategy and concrete vehicles.
  1. Establish Biblical Foundations - Read the Instructions carefully and thoroughly. Growth takes time!
  2. Champion Disciplemaking Vision
  3. Launch Prototype - Think Big, Start Small, Build Deep. Start with a few leaders.
  4. Concretize Vehicles - Discipleship Training Programmes
  5. Establish the Infrastructure - Testimonies sharing. People must be motivated, must be driven by God. We cannot push people into it.
