Equally inexhaustible and rich is the Gospel of Jesus Christ which undergirds and enlightens all our efforts to seek to understand and discern God's Holistic Mission in our own context and our own generation. Spiritual Renewal, emphasized in the 7th Synod, is to get top priority in the coming years. Spiritual revivals come when people and churches are on their knees. We are living at a time in human history where there is crisis in every walk of our lives. Individual life is at the threshold of uncertainty and unrest-there is lack of peace and joy.
Family life is divided-there is lack of harmony and reconciliation.
Community life is corrupt-there is lack of justice and righteousness. God's creation is on the brink of destruction. There is a vacuum of spirituality. Such revival should lead to pastoral care and concern for the people within the church. The concern for the people in the community will strengthen our efforts to establish peace and a just society, to work in solidarity with women, to stand by the poor, exploited, marginalised and Dalits and to give a voice to the voiceless.
