From May 7–10, 2025, our A3 7th Batch families gathered in the seaside town of Cox’s Bazar for a family seminar where ministry leaders didn’t just come as pastors and leaders, but as husbands, wives, and parents, ready to invest in their homes.
"The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth."

Cambodia (MNN) — China plays peacemaker in a bid to calm regional tensions as Trump-led efforts falter. Beijing also went on the defensive, denying claims that weapons produced by China were being used in the latest Cambodia-Thailand conflict.

Across Asia and beyond, a new current of leadership renewal is flowing. At our recent National Director’s Gathering, A3 leaders from several regions of the world came together to seek God’s direction for the next season of ministry. What emerged was a picture of the A3 movement as a living ecosystem: an estuary where streams of experience and new life converge to create something vibrant and generative.
International (MNN)—The world has become less peaceful over the last 17 years, according to the 2025 Global Peace Index, with conflict deaths at their highest levels of the century. In the face of this, A3 President Joe Handley encourages Christians around the world to turn to Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount.
Armenia (MNN) – A3 works around the world, “changing the few who change the many.” By developing church leaders, A3 aims to change the lives of local pastors and other leaders who can make a significant Kingdom impact.
Japan (MNN) — A powerful, 7.6-magnitude earthquake struck northeast Japan late Monday night, injuring at least 30 people. Although the quake was not massively destructive, people fear a second wave.
David Robison, a local missionary with Japan Evangelical Missions Society and a friend of A3, says, “Immediately after the earthquake, we started hearing the tsunami sirens going throughout the city.”
