2.4 How ACOP Came into Existence

[Jaylen Hodges]

I personally find the most interesting factor to be the one that is absent; nothing about training, teaching, disciple-making, or missions-oriented things. Perhaps that is not the time and place for such a thing, but you would imagine in the foundations of anything to do with Christ there should be a ministerial, outreach-oriented focus in every list you have.

The purpose that stands out to me as the most interesting is: “to engage in philanthropic work of any kind;”. This sticks out to me as the most interesting because that is a big statement to say that they will engage in any kind of philanthropic work. This does not put any kind of limit or requirement on the kind of work they will engage in. I just think that it is cool to have that openness to be the hands and feet of Jesus and engage in work that helps others as much as possible.
