Christ is seated at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty—that is the essence of Christian faith. But what exactly is Christ doing there? Here are five answers to a question from a divine service by the Chief Apostle.

Not every book is translated into hundreds of languages and is read year after year. But this author has made it, creating the basis for sermons that are practice-oriented.

There is harmony in diversity. Music can overcome barriers between cultures, religions, and nations. Three examples from the New Apostolic world illustrate this.

The Chief Apostle recently spoke about unprofitable servants in a divine service for ministers. Was he lecturing the ministers? By no means. He advised them on how they can put Christ in the centre of the congregation.

“C'etait genial.” It was awesome. These were Chief Apostle Jean-Luc Schneider’s own words as he said goodbye in South Korea. He was heading home after having been in the Far East for ten days. His visit left lasting impressions, but he also took many impressions home with him.

This thing with the Resurrection. It was unbelievable. That is how the disciples of Jesus already felt about it two thousand years ago. And still today many people feel the same way about it. But faith in the Resurrection creates a great deal of strength.

Fellowship is something that New Apostolic Christians not only experience in divine service. They often also spend time together outside of church in the circle of the youth, their congregation, or even with the Chief Apostle.

Kalaallit Nunaat, as the island is called in Greenlandic, is full of contrasts: geologically it belongs to North America, politically to Europe. Four-fifths of the country is covered by a massive ice sheet year round. In summer, the coastal areas are green. Apostle Jörg Steinbrenner just loves the country and its people.

The challenges are similar, the goals are the same, but the ways are different. How is the New Apostolic Church in Europe and North America tackling its structural reforms? An overview of a work in progress.

Making deals with God? Degrading the Church to the level of a service provider? Making oneself the measure of all things? Who would do such things? They can happen more quickly than we think! Some eye-openers from a divine service with the Chief Apostle.

For the first time, Chief Apostle Jean-Luc Schneider will be travelling to Japan. He will conduct a divine service in the congregation of Tama City on 22 May. Following is a look at a country that played a special role in the development of the New Apostolic Church in South-East Asia.

Christians normally celebrate divine services in churches or outside under a tree. But if they do not make it to church on time, they might even celebrate a divine service on a bus—as happened recently.nac.today looks at three continents.

Frankfurt, a place steeped in history; a gathering of all European Apostles; a great Pentecost concert; and a large congregation that celebrated a feast of thanksgiving … This is how Pentecost 2016 will be remembered.

They have the last word, yet nobody sees them. They listen and talk at the same time and all of this in two languages. How do interpreters experience the transmission of a divine service like we just had over Pentecost 2016?

Approximately 2,000 people experienced the divine service live in Frankfurt, and tens of thousands of brothers and sisters across Europe enjoyed a video broadcast of the Pentecost service. What they saw can be viewed in our photo gallery from the Congress Center in Frankfurt am Main.

“Great! Outstanding! Wonderful voices! A fantastic programme!”—such were the unanimous reactions to the evening’s musical programme. Pentecost concerts are legendary. The special thing about this year was a children’s choir from Cape Town that performed in Wiesbaden.
