Blueprint of a Strong Church

In this introduction to the Blueprint of a Strong Church series, Jon Brandt explores 1 Timothy 1:1 and Paul’s remarkable testimony. From his background as a zealous persecutor of Christians to becoming one of history’s greatest missionaries, Paul’s life demonstrates the transforming power of God’s mercy. This message challenges us to follow Paul’s example of pursuing Christ with wholehearted zeal in every area of life—not just in missions, but in all our relationships, work, and decisions. Jon also introduces the Blueprint series structure and shares how Ohana Baptist Church, like the city of Ephesus, has a unique opportunity to impact the world for Christ.
