ark+ kingdom first

We as an apostolic hub are following our heavenly calling and marking a significant shift from the traditional pastor-centered church model to a five-fold ministry approach where apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers work together to holistically equip the body of Christ. Our Kingdom Blueprints not only promote Kingdom impact in all areas of society, but also strengthen and revitalize local churches. Communities can benefit by connecting with us. We offer enhanced resources, broad-based support, and a renewed focus and emphasis on God's mission, enabling churches to thrive holistically and expand their reach within the Body of Christ.

Our apostolic center, arche+, represents a profound move of God's Spirit that bridges the gap between spiritual revival and holistic reformation. Grounded in biblical principles and empowered by God's presence, we serve as a message from heaven, bringing transformation to every area we touch. Through strategic leadership, mentoring, prophetic worship and intercession, and the mobilization of business leaders, we disciple and transform nations, fulfilling Jesus' mandate to make disciples of all nations. Our goal as a multicultural apostolic center is to continue to grow and multiply in an interconnected way to extend our global influence across generations and reshape both the church and society to reflect Kingdom life and the values of heaven.

At the heart of our apostolic hub is a commitment to hosting the presence of God and ensuring that every gathering, decision and action is based on His Word and guidance. This intentional focus on God's presence transforms our arche+ apostolic hub into a spiritual embassy, creating an atmosphere characterized by the supernatural, unity, innovation, healing and cultural transformation. Whether it's training business leaders to bring Kingdom principles to their industries, fostering creativity that offers divine solutions to societal challenges, or creating an atmosphere where God's love and sovereignty are evident, our arche+ hub is shaping the future of Ekklēsia and creation.

As an apostolic center, we are committed not only to progress, to innovation in today's world, but also to establishing an ongoing legacy of the Kingdom of God. Through intentional discipleship, coaching and mentoring, we are preparing the next generation of leaders, ensuring both continuity and expansion of the Kingdom of God mission. This intergenerational transfer ensures that the apostolic mission does not end with one generation, but thrives in the years to come, ensuring the impact of our arche+ apostolic hub and every other hub worldwide as an enduring message of the Kingdom on earth.

We are part of God's solution to align communities, regions and nations with His will. Through us, Jesus is established as the chief cornerstone, anchoring communities in God's leadership, values and supernatural power. As Christ's ambassadors, we carry out our mission with HIS authority, guided by the foundational truth of Ephesians 2:20: "Built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the most important cornerstone". We are structured to gather, equip and send out believers to impact areas of life such as business, education, arts and culture. The characteristics of our apostolic center reveal the multiple ways in which God's leadership, culture and supernatural power are manifested to holistically transform society for the Kingdom of God. We are a unique expression of the Kingdom of God that can adapt to the needs of local communities or work on an international level.

The following characteristics form the basis for the mission of our multicultural arche+ apostolic hub, which advances God's mission in Europe and the nations. These characteristics provide a solid framework for understanding the function and impact of our apostolic hub and its role in strengthening the body of Christ:

Apostolic governance encompasses the spiritual and interpersonal accountability necessary to ensure that the vision and mission of our apostolic center aligns with the will of God. Similar to the governance of the early church | where apostles like Peter and Paul ensured that doctrinal purity was maintained and the church grew strategically | apostolic leaders today function as spiritual stewards. They not only manage the resources of the apostolic hub, such as finances and staff, but also create a culture where God's presence and truth is the guiding force behind every decision. This model allows us both organizational stability and spiritual dynamism as our leaders seek divine guidance for the expansion of God's kingdom ("On earth as it is in heaven").

In Acts 15, the apostles gathered to clarify a critical doctrinal issue regarding Gentile believers, demonstrating that apostolic leaders prioritize unity and alignment with God's Word. Similarly, our modern apostolic hub is led by individuals who ensure that every aspect of the hub, from finances to spiritual practices, aligns with the principles of God's kingdom. Our leaders are more than stewards; they are visionaries who discern God's plans for the apostolic hub and ensure that these plans are put into action to foster a culture of spiritual growth and continuous development of the mission. They act as owners, not just stewards. 

Sonship in our apostolic hub refers to a relational dynamic in which spiritual fathers and mothers guide and lead spiritual sons and daughters. This blueprint has its roots in biblical relationships, such as between Paul and Timothy, where mentorship went beyond teaching and led to a deep familial connection (1 Timothy 1:2). We place great emphasis on building such relationships where experienced leaders influence future leaders, creating a cycle of wisdom and spiritual growth. This relational blueprint ensures the passing on of spiritual wealth. Resources, insights and spiritual strength thus flow through the apostolic hub, empowering both current and future generations to fulfill their calling.

Paul's mentorship of Timothy not only provided the younger leader with knowledge, but also the relational support he needed to be successful in his ministry, his calling. Similarly, we foster these deep connections and ensure that no individual feels isolated in their spiritual journey. This connectedness strengthens resilience and cohesion within the family in the apostolic hub, as each individual shares in the growth and success of the others. By sharing our personal experiences with God, these relationships are further deepened and the strength of the apostolic hub as a spiritual family is strengthened as a whole.

The kingdom of God culture at our apostolic center is characterized by an atmosphere where the values of heaven - such as love, honor, generosity, integrity and righteousness - permeate every aspect of life. In Acts 2:42-47, the early church demonstrates a vibrant kingdom of God culture by sharing resources, praying together, and living in unity while experiencing miracles and growth. Following this blueprint, we intentionally create this Atmosphereso that every interaction, every decision and every service reflects the values of heaven. God's presence is at the center of our apostolic hub, transforming individuals and communities and enabling us to become, step by step, more and more a living expression of God's kingdom on earth. We are, according to our heavenly DNA, developing our own culture that fits and works with our purpose and calling.

We intentionally cultivate the blueprint of a culture of honor and generosity found in the early church, making us a magnet for transformation and healing. People from all walks of life and cultural backgrounds are drawn to the authenticity and power of our community as we live out the blueprint and principles of the Kingdom. Whether through acts of charity, acts of service, or sustainability initiatives, our apostolic hub is becoming an ever-brighter light in the Kingdom, inviting others to experience the values of heaven firsthand. We are humbly aware, the presence of God is critical to sustaining our culture as His Holy Spirit continually shapes and molds the environment to reflect HIS love and justice in this world.

The core mission of our apostolic center is to equip believers for their tasks in the Kingdom of God. Following Ephesians 4:11-13, where leaders are called to equip the saints for ministry, we function as a training center. Here, believers receive both practical and spiritual tools they need to fulfill their calling, whether in ministry, business or other areas of influence. The equipping process includes teaching, mentorship and the impartation of spiritual gifts to ensure that people are fully prepared to fulfill God's calling.

We are an apostolic hub offering apostolic & prophetic courses and practical leadership development at our Kingdom Academy. We equip believers not only with knowledge, but also with the spiritual insight and discernment they need to master their unique calling. Through the presence of God throughout the training, we ensure that each individual is not only trained, but also empowered by the Holy Spirit to exercise their gifts with divine authority and effectiveness. Thus, step by step, a cycle of empowerment and multiplication is created as equipped believers train others, thus expanding the kingdom of God exponentially.

Prophetic worship and prophetic intercession are at the heart of our apostolic hub. For us, worship is more than just lip service - it becomes a prophetic act that aligns believers with God's will and releases His plans for regions and nations. The "harp and bowl" blueprint we live out in Revelation 4 and 5 underscores the intertwining of worship (symbolized by the harp) and prayer (the bowls of incense) as essential elements of our apostolic center. When believers worship and pray, they create an atmosphere in which God's presence can manifest and bring about supernatural breakthroughs.

In 2 Chronicles 20:21-22, the Israelites experienced a victory when they prioritized worship over battle, demonstrating the power of worship to invite God's intervention. Similarly, we engage in prophetic worship that not only honors God, but also releases His power in real-life situations. This blend of worship and intercession becomes a dynamic change agent that impacts both local communities and nations as God's will is prophetically proclaimed and manifested through His people.

Healing and deliverance are essential components of our ministry and reflect Jesus' mission to heal the sick and deliver the oppressed (Luke 9:1-2). In our apostolic hub, God's presence brings about physical, emotional and spiritual healing as people experience the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. We place great emphasis on creating an environment where the Holy Spirit can work freely, resulting in miraculous healings and deliverances taking place on a regular basis.

Just as Jesus healed many people who came to Him, in our apostolic hub that houses God's presence, people are set free from addictions, chronic illnesses and emotional trauma. We create an atmosphere filled with the Holy Spirit, we ensure through heavenly blueprints that healing and deliverance become the natural outcome of our work. This focus on restoration and freedom not only transforms the individual, but also strengthens the community as healing testimonies strengthen faith and lead others to experience God's power.

Our mission is to promote unity in the body of Christ, overcoming cultural, denominational and theological boundaries. Jesus' prayer in John 17:21 emphasizes the importance of unity and asks the Father to make his followers "one" so that the world may know that they have been sent by him. We take this mission seriously by creating spaces where believers from different backgrounds come together to work together and support each other. The goal is not just unity for unity's sake, but to create a stronger, more effective body of Christ that can advance the kingdom of God with more power and influence.

As an apostolic hub, we intentionally organize national and international events, seminars or conferences together with various ministries where different churches and ministries come together to worship and pray. Such initiatives break down walls of separation and create bonds of fellowship that lead to joint action. Through the presence of God at these gatherings, we allow the Holy Spirit to connect hearts, resulting in partnerships that bear lasting fruit. This unity is not just organizational, but deeply spiritual and fulfills the biblical call for the Ekklēsia to become "one body" working together for the kingdom of God (Ephesians 4:13).

We fulfill a dual purpose: we are a place where believers gather to be equipped and a starting point to send them out into the world. Much like the church in Antioch (Acts 13:2-3), which became the sending center for Paul and Barnabas, we gather people today to train, equip and then send them into their respective spheres of influence, whether it be in ministry, business, education or government. The blueprint of "gathering and sending" ensures that the impact of the apostolic hub goes far beyond its physical location, reaching new regions and communities with the message of the Kingdom of God.

As an apostolic hub, we gather our family members in various courses in our Kingdom Academy, for example for intensive training in the areas of leadership, evangelism or prophetic intercession. After being spiritually equipped and filled with the power of the Holy Spirit over a period of time set by heaven, these individuals are then sent out on local or global missions to accomplish God's work in their assigned areas. Each sending is accompanied by prayer and the impartation of God's presence to ensure that those sent out are not just acting on their own abilities, but are empowered by the Holy Spirit to fulfill their calling. This constant cycle of gathering and sending out ensures that the apostolic hub remains both a spiritual center and a mission field.

We are driven by a long-term vision for the transformation process, both within Ekklēsia and in society. Like Nehemiah, who strategically planned and rebuilt the walls of Jerusalem (Nehemiah 1:3-4), we develop comprehensive strategies to address societal issues from the perspective of the Kingdom of God. We are not content to solve superficial problems, but to effect profound, lasting change through the influence of Kingdom principles in areas such as education, business, politics and the arts.

For example, we fight poverty in the neighborhood by not only providing short-term aid, but also by developing programs that provide people with skills, education and spiritual discipleship. By applying a long-term, strategic approach, we can transform lives on multiple levels - spiritually, economically and socially. God's presence is critical in this process as His wisdom and guidance give us the clarity and insight needed to implement these transformative blueprints. In this way, our apostolic hub becomes a beacon of social change that reflects God's kingdom in every aspect of life.

We teach that the influence of the kingdom of God extends beyond the four walls of the church and into the economic sphere and other areas of influence. Just as Joseph was able to influence the Egyptian people through his leadership skills and wisdom (Genesis 41:39-41), modern business leaders are key agents of kingdom change. We mobilize these leaders by equipping them with spiritual and practical tools to bring the principles of the Kingdom of God into their fields, whether in business, education, healthcare or politics. These blueprints ensure that the values of the Kingdom of God are expressed in every area of society, shaping culture and influencing systems.

For example, a Christian business leader trained in our apostolic hub can introduce and holistically implement ethical principles in their company that reflect integrity, reliability and honor in business, creating a domino effect in their industry. By hosting God's presence in their workplace, Christian leaders bring the peace, wisdom and creativity of heaven into an environment that is often secular or even hostile to faith. The result is a shift in workplace culture as Kingdom principles | such as fairness, mercy, generosity and innovation | begin to permeate and influence the broader society. We are helping to ensure that business leaders are not only successful in a worldly sense, but are also advancing the Kingdom of God in the world in a spiritual sense.

We are an incubator for creativity and innovation where believers are encouraged to use their God-given talents to advance the Kingdom of God. God is looking for problem solvers! The biblical blueprint of Bezalel, who was filled with the Spirit of God to design and build the tabernacle (Exodus 35:31-32), shows that creativity is not limited to art, but is an important aspect in the fulfillment of God's plans. Here at apostolic hub, innovation extends to spiritual ministry, business, education and societal transformation as believers are inspired to find new ways to express God's heart and find solutions to real-world problems.

We are in the process of launching an arts barn in the area of arts & culture, where music, dance, visual arts and film will be used to make the Kingdom of God visible in innovative ways. In our innovation hub, visionary leaders and scientists work together to develop new technologies, new business models that reflect the values of the Kingdom and solve societal challenges. This spirit of innovation is fueled by the presence of God, as divine inspiration flows from close relationship and interaction with the Holy Spirit. The result is a culture of creativity that advances the Kingdom of God in new, impactful ways, transforming both individuals and communities through new ideas and expressions of God's truth.

Another key aspect of our apostolic hub is that we focus on leaving a legacy for future generations to ensure that the work of God's kingdom continues long after the current leaders have passed on. We find this blueprint in the relationship between Moses and Joshua (Exodus 34:9), where leadership and authority were intentionally passed on to the next generation. We are intentional about raising up the next generation of leaders and equipping them with the spiritual wisdom, authority and vision they need to carry on the mission. This generational transfer ensures continuity and sustainability within the apostolic hub and the advancement of the Kingdom of God in general.

For example, we intentionally invest in addiction programs or mentoring initiatives where experienced leaders intentionally disciple younger believers and prepare them to take on future leadership roles. This transfer of authority is not just about handing over titles, but also about imparting spiritual wisdom and vision that empowers the next generation to lead effectively. Harboring the presence of God plays a critical role in this process because each new generation must encounter God anew in order to continue the mission. By prioritizing legacy and generational change, we ensure that Kingdom advancement efforts remain vibrant and effective for years to come.
