Your Kingdom Come: Activating the Body Christ to Build God’s Kingdom in Your Community

Saturday March 15, 2025 2:45pm - 3:45pm EDT

Mouse House

The goal of this workshop is twofold:
a. To understand the power and anointed potential of the diversely unified Body of Christ (1Cor. 12). The Church is at its best when we collaborate together to build the Kingdom in our city.
b. To understand that God’s Kingdom requires us to go beyond our buildings, theological biases and cultural boundaries. The Church is at it’s best when we work together to make sure that every person has access to the Gospel. This includes the poor, the immigrant, the marginalized, the orphan, the widow, those in the minority.
