About
The Apollos Project is for pastors and lay leaders who desire to be trained in the development and delivery of expository sermons. Expository preaching approaches the Word of God inductively, studies it exegetically, explains it expositionally and applies it relevantly. Thus, becoming more like Apollos – growing in accuracy and adequacy in preaching the Word.
This ministry got started as a Doctor of Ministry project of Rev. Roy Verzosa. After completing his doctoral studies, requests were made for him to hold seminars using the preaching curriculum and manual he produced. The Apollos Project is dedicated to help in Equipping the Saints in Expounding the Scriptures.
Now as of September 2004, there are already 60,000 local churches throughout the Philippines. That’s the good news! But not so good news, is that, 40,000 of these churches do not have a seminary or Bible school trained pastors. These 40,000 pastors are high in commitment but maybe low in competence, especially in the area of preaching the Word. Therefore, there is an urgent need to help these pastors have some training without leaving their churches. And in light of the proliferating false doctrines, one area of utmost importance is training these pastors and lay leaders in their ability to interpret the Word accurately and to preach it adequately.
So that more urban pastors and lay leaders can avail of the training, The Apollos Project seminars are conducted basically for free (except when food is provided by the organizer). All participants are provided with a manual (100+ pages) for free, while the plane or boat fares of the speaker, including the accommodation expenses are handled by the Apollos Project ministry. Individuals and churches are supporting this ministry financially.
