IBLC’s Vision
Our ultimate desire is to see leaders engage in the ministry in such a way that God alone receives the Glory and the church is equipped. This represents freedom from the fear and insecurity that makes many leadership decisions self-focused, and enables the leader to look outwards.
Consider the following passages:
“This is why I write these things when I am absent, that when I come I may not have to be harsh in my use of authority – the authority the Lord gave me for building you up, not for tearing you down”. (2 Corinthians 13:10) Learn More…
IBLC’s Mission
Character and integrity are the great safeguards and health-giving boundaries to the use of power and authority by leaders. World history cries out with horrific stories when character and integrity are absent. Millions have lost their lives over this same issue of character and integrity. Thank God for his church where peace reigns and where leaders demonstrate leadership integrity that should be the envy of the world. Like a light in the darkness Christian leadership points the way to the correct use of power for the world. Learn more…
