Romans 16:16

Our

Vision

In Matthew 28:18-20 Jesus provided a compelling and clear vision for all disciples and churches in all countries and in every generation. He instructed his followers to go and make disciples in every nation, baptise them and teach them to obey everything he had taught. That vision of Jesus, still drives us. Beginning in 1986 with one church in our family of churches in Johannesburg, we now have over 100 churches across sub-saharan Africa. We continue striving to plant and establish thriving churches in all the 12 countries of Southern Africa. This is a stepping stone towards fulfilling our lifetime African continental dream of establishing a Bible Talk within walking distance of every African.
