Campus, Youth & Multi-Generational Ministry

While Kris was upsetting the dude with eyeliner & black nail polish on American Idol and the Magic were upsetting the Cavs, I was in an all-day planning meeting with key opinion-shapers of Every Nation Campus Ministry (Philippines).

My meeting included:
    - 9 active campus missionaries
    - 5 retired campus missionaries (now pastors)
    - 4 senior pastors
    - 4 youth pastors
    - 2 ENCM central office staff

After some heated debates, we decided that ENCM-Phil should be…
    - church-based not para-church
    - a student movement not a youth movement
    - a campus ministry not a student ministry
    - Christ-centered not secular or social
    - national not local

While I no longer do Bible studies on the campus, my passion to reach students has only increased over the years. For me, campus ministry is not an elective - it’s a calling, a stewardship.

Here’s a 4-point summary of our discussions/debates/decisions about what really matters in ENCM-Philippines:

1. God is honored.
2. Christ-centered, Spirit-empowered, Bible-based, disciple-making, church-based, socially-responsible campus ministries are established on every major campus in the Philippines.
3. Adequately funded campus missionaries are equipped and empowered.
4. Ministry partners are valued.
