Global Ministry is mobilizing the local church to impact our neighbors, our community, and the world with the reality of Jesus Christ for the glory of God. God is always working to extend the message of His salvation to the ends of the earth. Graciously, He has allowed Mount Auburn to participate with Him in this mission.
We believe that the Word of God is an epic story of God’s glory. Scripture weaves a consistent theme that focuses on God's glory being revealed to His creation. Therefore, the mission is not about people, but about God and His purpose for people, which is 'to glorify God and enjoy Him forever'.
Following humanity's separation from God, a plan of redemption born out of God’s love for all people began to unfold. We see this in Genesis with God's promise to Abraham, then God's dealings with the nation of Israel, Christ's life, the Cross, the Church, and culminating in the book of Revelation where we see "every tongue, tribe, and nation" worshipping at the feet of Jesus.
Our desire is to help the local church seamlessly integrate God's global purposes into the fabric of their lives, so that Jesus Christ is known across the street and across the world.
At Mount Auburn we are privileged to come along side these Christ-followers who are helping to make Jesus known.
CHRISTIAN MISSION TO THE ORIENT ~ LANNA THEOLOGICAL CENTER
Lanna Theological Center is a private Christian Center for church leadership training. Founded in May 2003, it is the successor to two earlier schools; the Chiang Mai Bible Institute (established 1975) and the Center for Biblical Studies (established 1983). The campus is located in San Sai District, Chiang Mai, Thailand. Chiang Mai is the "second city" of Thailand and is quickly becoming an important economic center for Southeast Asia. Lanna Theological Center is thus strategically located to serve the churches of Thailand and surrounding countries. LTC exists to prepare workers for the Lord's Harvest, offering various kinds of programs and activities to help young Christians mature and be equipped with the skills and knowledge necessary to impact their communities for Christ.
