How do we align our hearts to world missions? Here are the main points from Pastor Lawrence Khong's message to us at the relaunch of Antioch 21.
🌏 We must recognise that God's greatest concern is the salvation of the world. We must recognise the urgency of the hour. We must recognise the vanity of life.
📱Pastor Lawrence ended with a quote from Steve Jobs. This is what Jobs said to Pepsi executive John Sculley to challenge him to join Apple.
"Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water or do you want a chance to change the world?"
❓How about you? What are you giving your life for?

🌏 How shall we know when we have finished the Great Commission? Here are the five finish lines of the Great Commission as Joseph Chean articulated them, during the relaunch service of Antioch 21.
1. The good news will be presented to every person.
2. All people groups shall be reached with the gospel of the kingdom.
3. There shall be a church in every neighbourhood.
4. There shall be a bible for every language.
5. Compassion and justice shall be expressed in every nation.
🙏 Take a few moments now to pray for God's perfect will to be established in each of these five areas. Know anyone involved in any of these arenas of missions? Pray for them to persevere in the race of faith.

MIND THE GAP. That space between intention and action is filled with tension. It is often the graveyard of many dreams, including aspirations to become a cross-cultural missionary.

For many who feel called to missions, the years of waiting before one goes to the field can be a difficult season to navigate. But we do not have to walk this journey alone.
Antioch 21 has launched the Goer Missions Forum to create a safe space for prospective goers to hold meaningful conversations and encourage one another in our missions adventures!
Close to 200 people from over 70 churches came together for our first such event on 25th January at St Andrew’s Cathedral. It was a wonderful gathering of likeminded people all hungry to learn from one another 🔥
Adjunct Associate Professor Dr. Tan Lai Yong led a devotion on Psalm 84 and shared his rich experiences as a missions practitioner with us. Sarah Chan recounted God’s hand in guiding her to embrace Timor-Leste as her mission field this year. Following that was a lively time of Q&A with Dr. Tan and our panel of speakers from the Antioch 21 taskforce.
Thank you for joining us for our first Goer Missions Forum!

The command is clear, but our strategies and methods must evolve depending on the unique missions contexts we face! If our churches aspire to be effective in world missions in this era of change and turbulence, we need to build a culture of continuous learning.
The Antioch Missions Forum seeks to build a learning community, by providing a platform for missions leaders to share their experiences and glean from the wisdom of others.
We invite the missions leadership team of local churches, missions agencies and NGOs for our first panel dialogue hosted by Antioch 21.

In the meantime, catch this video to find out more about Antioch 21 🔥
The first Antioch Missions Forum gathered 88 missions leaders, representing 39 churches and 17 missions agencies to talk about 3 critical issues:
⛪ How do we mobilise the Church in missions?
🌍 How do we decide on missionary field placements?
🏆 What does success in the mission field look like and how do we measure it?
Joseph Chean, Strategic Coordinator of Antioch 21, facilitated a lively and authentic dialogue with a panel comprising missions pastors of Yio Chu Kang Chapel, Woodlands Evangelical Free Church and Victory Family Centre, as well as a prospective goer from Covenant Evangelical Free Church.
We're excited to hear about the connections made through the group discussions and to witness the beginning of a learning community among missions leaders!
May the Lord continue the good work He's started among us ❤️
