Receiving Model

 A. Vision

My dream is to have a church bring us closer to love, peace, hope.

B. Background

The current church model is Giving Model. 

Under this model, the believers are expected to demonstrate their commitment to God.

Believers are expected to

give 1/10 of their income
evangelize to people about Christ
expect to involve in weekly family fellowship
expect to involve in a ministry
expect to involve in Bible study and prayer meeting

They expect to GIVE and God will bless them in return

The results are burn out and tiredness. They lose the joy and the intimacy with God


C. New Approach : Receiving Model

Receiving Model is to let the believers to receive the blessing from God before they give their talent, finance and time to Christian community

Receiving Model emphasis of joy, miracle and freedom and experience the presence of God.

Blessing and joy first. Service secondary. God own the Universe, He does not need our services to enrich the world. The world mission will be fulfilled according to His time His way and His methods.

John 10:10
Prater of Jazbes.


D. Methodology
1-24 months

God - learn the presence of God (Trinity), learn to listen to God;s voice, visualization
Fellowship - Experience the love of brothers and sisters. Zero Expectation
Love offering - Give only after God's financial blessing according to your faith
Evangelism - No need until God instruct you specifically
Ministry - Serve only when God tell you. Usually it is when the love of God overflow in your life
Rules - Only two from Jesus - love God and  love ourselves
Administration - Seek the direction from God. Let God makes the plan
