Imagine being a believer in a place where people tend to compete instead of cooperate, where hard economic times and the effects of communism and oppression have taught people to jealously guard resources. In this place, the Biblical Institute promotes cooperation by involving multiple churches and organizations in everything we do, and by living out Romans 12.10, “Outdo one another in giving away honor.”
Imagine being a Christian in a place where people expect leaders to be dictatorial, and are suspicious of those who show initiative; a place where few church members feel invested in their churches’ ministries or the ownership of their spiritual gifts. In this place, the Biblical Institute teaches and models servant leadership, imitating the leadership style of Jesus, so that people discover and use their spiritual gifts to serve others and to own the ministry God prepared for them to do (Ephesians 2.10).
