INFO: https://ncfic.org/events/view/building-a-god-centered-family-auckland-tour?tab=scheduleOn this tour, we will focus our teaching on matters of church and family life. While families are in a state of frustration and even collapse all over the world, we bring a vision of hope. That vision is the biblical vision for family life. This conference series is designed to deliver that vision of hope by explaining from the scriptures and how family life is designed to operate in the midst of church life and economic life.  These issues of church and family begin with understanding that scripture is sufficient for all things – including church, family and economic life. Our desire in fulfilling the great commission is to do what Jesus commanded His disciples, to “teach them to obey all things that I have commanded them” (Matt 28:20). Our Lord, in His Word has spoken on a multitude of practical church and family issues to instruct His people how they ought to live in harmony with His Word.

Anthony Courter graduated from Bible college in ’87 with a pastoral degree. While pastoring his first church he began to see issues concerning youth ministry and fathers abdicating their God given responsibilities.  This insight caused him to become deliberately focused on discipling fathers, specifically concentrating on and encouraging family economics and family centered ministries.
For years, the Courter home has been the backdrop for teaching men and families about economic issues such as What is Money?, Why have Passive Income, and How to have Family Based Businesses. In 2004 he founded CAMP (Carpenters Aiding Missionary Projects) in an effort to help foster within men and their families a desire for world missions and to aid missions projects around the world.
Anthony and Michelle, his wife of 27 years, are the parents of 12 children ages 24 to 18 months – Daniel, Jessica, Rebekah, Aaron, Josiah, Esther, Joshua, Caleb, Lincoln, Elijah, Anna and Nathan. In addition to running CAMP, hosting monthly skill building workshops, and meeting local and international church needs, they are the owner and manufacturers of Solar Pathfinder.
