MTC 2019 – Journeying with Jacob’s Limp

We continue to press forward in faith carry out God’s call with our 25thMTC on November 27th – December 1st, held at the Oak Brook Marriott near Chicago, IL.

In Matthew 16:19, Jesus declares over His church an incredible assignment of authority for “gaining the whole world.” 

MTC’s call is to build the fellowship of Kingdom servants – people who move in the authority to “gain the whole world” – yet will not forfeit their soul in the process.  Over the past 25+ years, many have responded to this call of the Kingdom servant.  With that, God has led us through His preparation program, which entails the journey of the cross – a journey of seeming contradictions, distress, weakness, offense, betrayal, failure, and shame.  It is a journey that leads us to a place of wrestling with God, a place of becoming limp by His touch, a place that ultimately opens the way to the heavenly crown jewel of self-denial.

Self-denial sets the value system that allows us to gain the whole world, but not forfeit our soul.

For this reason, we devote this 25th MTC to build the body through the reflection and celebration of this journey with a limp.  We hope to be edified by your stories of wrestling with God, not letting Him go, and finally coming to the place of “not as I will, but as You will.”

Blessings.
