Motivation and Lessons from History
Throughout history, when cultures began to collapse and the world grew increasingly corrupt, many sincere believers chose to withdraw. In the early Middle Ages, some fled the chaos of society to pursue holiness in isolation—giving birth to the monastic movement. Their efforts were not without fruit. Monks cleared land, improved agriculture, preserved Scripture, educated young men, and in many ways became a quiet force for good.
But their absence from public life came at a cost. Some of the most gifted men and women of that time did so much of their work in isolation, leaving the wider world without the bold leadership it desperately needed. What began as devotion often ended in spiritual pride, apathy, or gluttony as some took more satisfaction in retreating from the world than in shining light within it.
That history reminds me that holiness doesn’t require retreat. In fact, faithfulness often means staying in the thick of things—teaching, serving, shepherding, and proclaiming Christ openly in the very places that seem most broken. That’s the call I feel today. Not to hide, but to help build—to stay, to share, to speak… and to love people as Christ loved me.
My Vision for Ministry: Building the Church Daily
The early church was not defined by internet presence, celebrity personalities, or smart-screen technology, but by simple, daily devotion to the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, to the breaking of bread, and to prayer. My vision is to restore that kind of culture to the church today—anchored in the example laid out in the book of Acts:
Acts 2:42-47 – “And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers. Then fear came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles. Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, and sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need. So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.”
Acts 4:32-35 – “Now the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and one soul; neither did anyone say that any of the things he possessed was his own, but they had all things in common. And with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon them all. Nor was there anyone among them who lacked; for all who were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold, and laid them at the apostles’ feet; and they distributed to each as anyone had need.”
Acts 6:1-4 – “Now in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplying, there arose a complaint against the Hebrews by the Hellenists, because their widows were neglected in the daily distribution. Then the twelve summoned the multitude of the disciples and said, “It is not desirable that we should leave the word of God and serve tables. Therefore, brethren, seek out from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business; but we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”
The big picture:
1 Timothy 4:13 – “Till I come, give attendance to reading (the public reading of Scripture), to exhortation, to doctrine.”
Titus 1:5 – “The reason I left you in Crete was that you might put in order what was left unfinished and appoint elders in every town, as I directed you.”
1 Timothy 1:5-7 – “The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. Some have departed from these and have turned to meaningless talk. They want to be teachers of the law, but they do not know what they are talking about or what they so confidently affirm.”
The Biblical Blueprint
From the New Testament, we see the church as a daily-operating body, not a once-a-week gathering. It was a place where:
- Doctrine was taught daily, in the temple, from home to home and publicly.
- Fellowship and care for the poor and needy within the church was evident.
- The breaking of bread and celebration of the LORD’s supper happened regularly.
- Prayer was common, daily, and constant.
- Disciples were made, not just decisions.
- Elders were appointed town by town, congregation by congregation, to carry out gospel work and guard against false teaching.
We are not called to reinvent the pattern, but to faithfully apply the one the Shepherd gave us, and to stand firm in it.
Why Plant Another Church?
Because we see these problems everywhere:
#1. Lack of consistent leadership from within the pulpit.
#2. Lack of individual discipline, work ethic, and training within the body.
#3. Lack of trainers who know how to train the body.
#4. Lack of systems or the wrong systems in place for training in discipleship.
#5. Lack of meetings in the church due to buildings being closed or underutilized.
#6. Lack of equal distribution among the poor and needy saints.
Our Solution: A Daily Church Model
To restore the daily, vibrant life of the church and meet the challenges we face, we are committed to implementing these five key solutions:
-
Offer Workshops and Conferences
These conferences serve both as training grounds for deepening biblical understanding and as opportunities to raise funds and gather community support. Through these events, we equip believers in practical discipleship tools while crowd-sourcing the people and resources needed to grow. -
Purchase Buildings
Owning the facility ensures full control over ministry activities and provides a stable, welcoming place for the church to gather. This foundational step allows us to open the doors daily without restrictions and build a long-term ministry hub. -
Open the Buildings Five Days a Week for Training and Workshops
The church will function beyond Sunday worship—operating regularly for discipleship, prayer, outreach training, and spiritual “workouts” that build maturity and community in practical ways. -
Implement Discipleship Training Systems
We will install proven tools and systems such as SOAP (Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer), Time and Priority Management, GOAL Setting, benevolence programs, and outreach strategies. These frameworks empower believers to grow in faith and service systematically. -
Train Trainers: Elders and Deacons
Recognizing that leadership multiplies ministry, we prioritize raising up and equipping elders and deacons who are spiritually mature and capable of shepherding, teaching, and leading others effectively.
We’re not just aiming to plant a church—we’re building a culture of daily discipleship.
How do we measure effectiveness
We realize that what happened in the early church was accomplished not by the acts of the Apostles, but by the acts of the Holy Spirit. What was then “organic” cannot be systematized and recreated by mere human effort without that same Holy Spirit working in the hearts and lives of believers who walk in obedience. In other words, we have no expectation that our system will “work” any better than any other system from a human standard.
Therefore, we cannot measure success by numbers—church buildings, congregants, baptisms, decisions—nor by money, size, stature, influence, or any other worldly metric. The only measuring stick we recognize is the one our Lord Jesus Christ gave us: “By this all people will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another” (John 13:34–35).
The Path Forward
- Select a Founding Team
Gather 10–12 elder/deacon-qualified believers to act as the founding quorum for decision-making and accountability. - Secure a Facility
Find or purchase a strategic building that can become a 5-day-a-week ministry hub. - Fund the Ministry
Use the Bible Study Boot Camps as both an outreach and a fundraising vehicle to support church planting efforts, equip leaders, and establish long-term sustainability.
This is a vision of a church that functions daily—equipping believers, training leaders, and creating communities where people are in fellowship every day. It’s time to return to the simple, powerful, Spirit-filled model we see in the Book of Acts—allowing the love of Christ to compel us!
