Victory BGC Sermon

In 1984, most of our first few church leaders were university students. Many of them had never visited another country. Some had never been off the island of Luzon, where Metro Manila is located. Few had ever even seen a passport, much less possessed one. It was an unlikely group to launch a worldwide church-planting movement!

Yet, they started learning what it meant to follow Christ by laying their hands on an old National Geographic map and interceding for the nations one by one. Pastor Steve Murrell also empowered them that a Bible and a passport were all they needed to answer God's call to make disciples of all nations.

From those humble beginnings, the gospel has been planted in 82 nations-yet still, we continue to reach for more. And since then, Psalm 2:8 has always been our prayer:

"Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession."

We often hear the phrase ‘blessed to be a blessing,’ which has become imprinted in our hearts as a church community. We believe that God will bless us, and we intend to use His blessing to honor and glorify Him. 

This series aims to deepen and rekindle our understanding of the biblical principles of faithful stewardship. Beyond the common practice of tithing, we’ll find that true stewardship begins with God’s grace.

In light of knowing everything comes and belongs to Him, we honor Him by not only giving our ten percent but all our wealth (100%) under His lordship daily.
