The Holy Spirit and Revival
The Spirit’s Empowering Presence is Essential to God’s Mission
Regardless of how long you have been a Christian on mission, in this second step on our Journey to the Fourth Lausanne Congress we encourage you to humbly submit your heart and life to the words of Jesus who teaches us that there is no mission without the Holy Spirit’s empowering presence.

Step 3
Missional Community
Integrating Being and Doing: The Church as God’s New Society for Mission
In today’s world, where skills and fame are highly valued, the church often separates doing missions and being the church. But Scripture shows us that the church’s daily life and its role in the community are key parts of its mission. What the church does and what it is should go hand in hand; this is God’s plan for His church.

Step 4
Persecution and Faithful Witness
“The blood of martyrs is the seed of the Church.” – Tertullian
Early Christians in the book of Acts faced fierce opposition, but their response might surprise us. Instead of trembling in fear, they saw persecution as an opportunity to demonstrate the reality and power of their faith. Witnessing their unwavering courage in the face of adversity became a powerful testimony, drawing others to the message of Christ. While we may naturally seek comfort and safety, this biblical perspective reminds us that hardship can also be a catalyst for faith.

Leadership as Servanthood
Following in His Footsteps: The Call to Servant Leadership in the Modern World
In this step, we explore the essence of Christian leadership, rooted in Jesus’ call for believers to embody servanthood above all. Facing contemporary leadership challenges in the church, we explore biblical guidance on fostering communities and propelling God’s mission forward.

The Gospel For Every Person
Obeying His Call: Taking the Gospel to The Ends of the Earth
In this step, we dive into the heart of the Great Commission: taking the gospel to the ends of the earth. This key theme is one of six themes drawn from the Book of Acts, that frames the morning sessions at the Fourth Lausanne Congress.
This theme also ties in with the Lausanne Movement's fourfold vision of bringing the Gospel to every person, underscoring our commitment to reaching out across the globe.
