In Lusaka, Chief Apostle Schneider addressed several sensitive issues affecting every Christian and the Church, asking where genuine mission might be giving way to ego, rules, reputation, or regional distinction?

He became the vital link in the reunification of the two New Apostolic sister churches in Indonesia: Apostle Martasudarma, who passed away fifty years ago.

Those who take an interest in the gospel discover the love of Jesus, which carries us through all challenges. If we follow Him, His love will free us from fear and unite us.

The number remains unchanged, but the faces are changing. The records show 365 active Apostles for the period from June to November 2025. These include a new Chief Apostle Helper, two new District Apostles, two newly assigned District Apostle Helpers, and ten new Apostles.

Providing pastoral care is part of the mission of the New Apostolic Church. But how does this work in practice in different cultures? The District Apostles discussed this subject.

What kind of subjects are addressed in a divine service for ministers? Well, here it was about 250 kilos of silver—but differently than one might think. The sermon was not a presentation about positive financial results but took a close look at faithfulness. For anyone wishing to hear it: it’s encouraging.

He is not one known for grand gestures, but for genuine closeness. District Apostle Mark Woll from Canada built structures and touched hearts. Now he is retiring.

He says he is not much of an adventurer. And yet his life has been one adventure due to his global travels. In the process he earned himself a reputation as the king of fellowship. Now he is retiring.

Today, 190 years ago to the day, the Catholic Apostolic Congregations in London solemnly appointed their Apostles—the birth of the apostolate of the modern era. But the further history developed a little differently than expected. 

There is currently one Apostle for every day of the year—the New Apostolic Church International registered a total of 365 active Apostles for the period between November 2024 and April 2025. Among them are sixteen new Apostles and one District Apostle Helper.

Many contributed to the development of the Church by preaching or doing soul care, but Apostle John Erb also laid the legal foundations for the New Apostolic Church in the United States. John Erb was born 150 years ago to the day. He had his share of ups and downs in life.

An experienced Apostle with an international profile is going to become the new District Apostle for Northern and Eastern Germany: David Heynes not only brings two passports to the table, but also a great deal of spiritual experience and linguistic diversity.

A mathetria, a female disciple, is mentioned in the New Testament only once. Her appearance on the biblical stage lasts only seven verses, but her fate makes an impact. It is a situation of life and death.

Not power, but love and closeness to others: In the first interview, the Chief Apostle Helper shows how he thinks, feels - and believes.

Preaching is not something you do just like that: it must be inspired by the Holy Spirit, be aligned with the Bible, and be in accordance with our doctrine.  The Chief Apostle explains the requirements.

When is an Apostle a true Apostle? A controversial question and two frank but very different answers. This is explained in the ninth and final part of the panel discussion at the 2019 International Youth Convention.

It starts with a shortage: in the congregation, the district, or the Regional Church. These things must be dealt with, along similar lines as in the Acts of the Apostles. This is explained in part eight of the panel discussion at the 2019 International Youth Convention.

The fight against sin, the struggle for grace, and the willingness to forgive are part and parcel of Christian life. The Chief Apostle used his sermon in Accra in Ghana for some important clarifications and impulses.
