Thank You!

We would like to express our heartfelt appreciation for your presence at the 2024 BAM Asia Conference. We are truly blessed by the invaluable insights and knowledge shared by our esteemed pastors and speakers.

We believe that your participation was not by chance, but by Divine Appointment. As you return home and to your workplaces, may you carry with you the BAM (Biblical, Authentic, Missional) message we embraced during our time together.

We lift each of you in our prayers, asking the Lord to pour His blessings upon your businesses, employees, and most importantly, your families. As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord!

Together, let us remain steadfast in our commitment to be the salt and light in the marketplace, for His glory alone.

We look forward to a spirit of COLLABORATION and mutual encouragement in the coming year.

Thank you once again, and may the Lord bless you and surround you with His presence.

Faith, Stewardship, and the Future of Business

Welcome Remarks by Richard Tan

A Blessed Morning Dear Pastors, Brothers & Sisters, Esteemed guests coming from different parts of the world and fellow Christian Business Owners. Welcome to the Second Business As Mission Asia Conference. It’s good to see so many familiar and new faces here this morning. As I welcome all of you, let me also welcome the presence of Our Lord Jesus Christ in our midst, our most important guest, may I ask everyone to give Him your loudest clap offerings in welcoming our Lord. The theme for this year’s BAM conference over the next two days is “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord”, which is found in Joshua 24:15b, this is indeed our heart desires in wanting to serve the Lord but please allow me to put this into its context. In Joshua 24:1 - “When Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel to Shechem and summoned the elders, the heads, the judges and the officers of Israel. And they presented themselves before God.”

BAM Asia Conference 2024: A Journey of Stewardship

Manila, Philippines—The BAM Asia Conference 2024, held on October 18-19, 2024, profoundly impacted attendees, inspiring, equipping, and empowering them to serve the Lord through their businesses. Hosted at the prestigious Shangri-La The Fort, the conference provided a platform for business leaders and church members to connect, learn, and be transformed. The theme of the conference, "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord" (Joshua 24:15b), resonated deeply with participants.

Our Inspiring BAM Journey

Ps Ed and I were truly inspired by the profound impact of BAM on businesses and the Kingdom of God in the Philippines. The two-day conference was an incredible experience that exceeded all our expectations. The speakers were exceptional, delivering insightful and engaging presentations that resonated deeply. The flawless organization of the event, coupled with the warm hospitality extended by the BAM family and team, made it a truly memorable experience. We are grateful for the opportunity to be part of such a transformative event and look forward to seeing the continued positive impact of BAM in the Philippines.

Asia's Business Leaders Seek Righteousness

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.” Matthew 5:6 ESV

BAM Conference: A Transformative Experience

I am filled with joy and gratitude to God for answering our prayers for the successful BAM 2-day conference. We witnessed the Holy Spirit's transformative work in the hearts and minds of both speakers and participants. Together with the other attendees, we learned and affirmed the following: Business is our sacred mission. Our ministry is about stewardship, not only for the present generation but for generations to come. In a world filled with challenges and darkness, believers must be beacons of light and salt for Jesus. We should prioritize and choose Him above all else in this world. We must rely on Him and trust in His deliverance, intervention, and miracles. Looking beyond our immediate circumstances, we are encouraged to see the needs of others and help empower them. We should use our resources, wisdom, family, and life experiences to enrich the lives of others. Strengthened by this conference, let us continue to pray that the learnings and messages God has imparted to us will be carried out with faith and courage.
