Night of Celebration Encourages the Church to Finish the Fight
Orlando, Fla., Jan 29, 2020 – With 850 leaders gathered and thousands watching online, Synergize 2020 got underway with a celebration of The Global Church Network (GCN) achieving its goal of reaching 1 billion souls for Christ and planting 5 million churches in an effort to fulfill the Great Commission.
“This mission was started nearly 20 years ago by Dr. Bill Bright and myself, at First Baptist Church, in Orlando, at the Beyond All Limits Conference. We cast vision to more than 5,000 pastors and leaders from every state in the United States, every province in Canada and 20 nations. The Billion Soul goal was a huge goal but on November 7, 2019 we reached it,” said James O. Davis, president of Global Church Network. “We got this job done because we all came together to reach it. It wasn’t about who got credit, it was about adopting God’s goal to save lives. We all have a role in God’s goal and a part in God’s heart.”
In addition to celebrating this success, Davis along with Dr. David Mohan, Co-Chair/India for the Global Church network, spoke about the next chapter, FINISH 2030. This global initiative seeks to finish the Great Commission by the 2,000th anniversary of the founding of the Church. Additionally, by the year 2030, GCN also aims to launch a global hub in every nation, complete Bible translation for the remaining unreached people groups, and plant churches where there has never been a church before.
“God is calling the church to enlarge itself, prepare for the greatest harvest in the world and finish the assignment,” said Davis. “There are more than two billion people that have never heard that Jesus saves, we must break down every barrier so they can hear the truth. We must share the harvest.”
