🕯️
Purpose: a whole‑house diagnostic for an inner‑city missional church + seminary in Geylang taking stewardship of a new facility.
Frame: the eye is the lamp of the body (Matt 6:22–23) — we examine what is lit, what is shadowed, and what oil must be purified.
Core conviction: every soul is ordained for greatness, and every community can bless God and flourish when gifts are named, ordered, and practiced faithfully.
