CHRISTIANITY EXPLORED MINISTRIES

ASIA PACIFIC EQUIPPING THE CHURCH FOR MISSION
Christianity Explored Malaysia and Christian- ity Explored Singapore experienced a fruitful year, with a key highlight being Rico Tice’s visit in August. Over 10 days, we met with key partners, hosted 14 ministry events to train church leaders in biblical evangelism, and heard Rico speak as keynote at the Klang Valley Bible Conference. We’re thankful that
this ministry tour has sparked a deeper passion for Gospel mission, inspir- ing more than 30 churches to partner with Christianity Explored to equip them for effective ministry. Christianity Explored Malaysia supported churches in Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh, Penang, Johor, and beyond - delivering training and resources to equip them to reach out to their communities with the good news. While Christi- anity Explored remains the most popular course, a number of church lead- ers are using Discipleship Explored as a supplement for their catechism classes for young people, preparing them for baptism and confirmation. A real encouragement came from a ministry partner in Kuala Lumpur, who shared that three participants came to faith in Christ through their recent Christianity Explored course: “They realized who Jesus is, that he came to save them from their sins, and they believe and desire to follow him…Praise God, His gospel is un- stoppable. Please pray with us as our leaders continue the journey with them.”
This year, 185 church leaders requested Mandarin and Cantonese translations to support their local ministries. Leaders from across the UK, East Asia, Australia and Chi- nese communities worldwide are eager to be equipped for evangelism in their own language! In Hong Kong, we collaborated with the Far East Broadcasting Company to produce high quality Mandarin and Cantonese dubbed versions of the Christianity Explored course.
