In light of the fact that God created me for a specific purpose; in light of the fact that Jesus was crucified to take away the sins of the world; in light of the fact that sin has disfigured the world and has left people: depressed, dejected, and in despair. I pledge to be consumed with the greatest commission heralded to mankind by our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.

This commission, declared in Mark 16:15 is to preach the gospel to the world. Preaching becomes a natural way of life if I follow Micah 6:8 and do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly before God and man.

I fulfill my role to preach the gospel when I preach like Christ preached as recorded in Luke 4:18-19. I preach when I minister to the poor, I preach when I minister to the broken-hearted, I preach when I minister to those in captivity, I preach when I minister to those who are blind and in darkness, I preach when I minister to those who are bruised, I preach when I amplify the urgency of accepting Jesus Christ today!

If I preach as Christ preached somebody will be ministered to, if I preach as Christ preached heaven and earth will rejoice, if I preach as Christ preached the forces of evil will be dispelled, if I can be involved in the great cause of Christ, then I will find a purpose for which to live, and a purpose for which to die.

I pledge to spend the hours God has granted me, preaching Christ crucified.

Together, in love and unity, as we preach Christ crucified, our church will grow:

Warmer through fellowship.

Deeper through discipleship.

Stronger through ministry.

And larger through evangelism.
