APC has a strong emphasis on equipping working professionals to live out their faith in the workplace and have impact and influence for God's Kingdom. Believers in the marketplace are on the frontlines for Kingdom advancement and hence need all the equipping and empowering available. We encourage believers to find and take their place as agents of transformation on the seven mountains of society (Business, Education, Government, Media, Art/Entertainment, Family, Religion). We encourage believers to walk in the anointing of God, expect miracles, demonstrate the work of the Spirit and display God's glory in the marketplace.
In addition to discipling workplace professionals in their Christian life, workplace witness and involvement in missions, there are other important areas, professionals at APC are working towards:
(A) Helping mentor younger workplace professionals at APC, especially those who are venturing out into entrepreneurship, women entrepreneurs, those starting social/Christian organizations (B) Reaching professionals in Bangalore city with the Gospel (C) Being involved in urban church planting in cities across India (planting churches that reach professionals) (D) Engaging in Christian missions: education sponsorship and small-business development to support church plants in small towns and rural settings.
