It’s time for EXPLOSION

“This is not a time for multiplication, this is a time for EXPLOSION!” declared Tan Chee Kiang, pastor of City Harvest Church, to a crowd of more than 200 youth and adults from his zone on 30 January 2009. He was speaking at one of the meetings in a series entitled “Marketplace Explosion”. It started out as a youth outreach called “Campus Explosion”. Due to its success among the youth, it was then expanded to include the working adults as well.

Zone Secretary Claire Yeo explained the purpose behind the meetings.

“Tan wanted to equip the members to be more effective in their penetration into the marketplace, living out the message of the cultural mandate and in so doing, winning souls into the Kingdom.” In essence, the purpose of Marketplace Explosion was to inspire the members in CK Zone to explode in evangelism in their campuses and workplaces.

During the meeting, Tan preached about the story of the four men and the paralytic and challenged the members to be like the four men who broke through four barriers to achieve their desired breakthrough — the paralytic’s healing. He also stirred the members and challenged them to think big and not to be restrained in their dreams and visions. The key to the four men’s success was the desperation they had in them. More than dreams, diligence and desire, it was the desperation the four men had in them that propelled them towards their breakthrough.

Louis Tay, a Hospitality officer, explained, “I’m inspired by the desperation of the four men. Imagine the explosion that will take place if all of us here are as desperate for our campuses as the four men were for the paralytic.”

Indeed, we can only wait with bated breath to see what breakthrough God has in store for the 1,200-strong CK Zone as they cry out in desperation for a Marketplace Explosion.
