2015 camp theme is “Birth and Rebirth of a Vision” taken from Hagai 2:9

Haggai 2:9New International Version (NIV)

‘The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house,’ says the Lord Almighty. ‘And in this place I will grant peace,’ declares the LordAlmighty.”


Synopsis

Through five messages, the speaker will use the book of Haggai and Ezra to tell the story of a people who were called to rebuild a past glory and a destiny. They responded well initially. But because of internal and external difficulties, they gave up. God again stirred them up to resume the work. They finally completed it. Using this as the background, the messages will touch on issues like:

  • God’s calling to His people
  • What is your vision for the church
  • Renewing your zeal
  • How to start and continue in face of obstacles
  • Seeing your role in building up the body
