2012 TMAI Asia/Pacific Summit Report

The Master's Academy International (TMAI) Asia/Pacific regional summit in Singapore is finished and we reflect now on what made the summit a success . . .

• Twenty men attended from countries such as Australia, Cambodia, Fiji, Hawaii, India, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, and the United States
• We experienced sweet fellowship and great encouragement
• “Fisherman of Christ” Fellowship, pastored by Soon Yong Tan, provided wonderful hospitality to all the delegates
• Important reminders came out of the sessions conducted by Chris Mueller and John Pleasnick of Faith Bible Church in Murrieta, California:
• God’s goal in training: That our students be all that God designed them to be – namely, that they minister according to their God-given gifts
• Ensure the right training environment: Since our people are to minister in the church, make the training environment (namely, the classroom) be as much like the church as possible
• Why do we train?: For God’s glory, for the sake of the gospel, to keep the great commandment, to obey the great commission
• The Asia/Pacific training centers committed to undertake the TMAI degree mapping process along with the European and Spanish-speaking institutes
• Field reports were delivered
• A request was made to make the Asia/Pacific summit an annual event

Personally, the summit was a great encouragement to me.  I value the men greatly and am excited to know all that God is doing through them.
