Our Mission
"To identify, develop and release emerging kingdom leaders to unite the church, multiply leaders and congregations, and extend the transforming power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ."
Our Vision
Asian Access/Japan seeks to deploy 100 church multiplication teams:
- To establish 1,000 reproducing congregations...
- which will enfold 1 million new followers of Christ,
- who will in turn send 1,000 missionaries from Japan to the cities of Asia, that will be home to...
- 1 billion people by the year 2020 AD.
This statement serves as the over-arching vision and goal toward which all the efforts of Asian Access/Japan are focused. The primary outcome for which we are aiming is the establishment of 1,000 reproducing congregations. The primary means of achieving that goal is deploying 100 church multiplication teams. This becomes doable when it is broken down into regions and then broken down into three-year cycles.
The goal can be accomplished by a regional focus of selecting, training, and deploying ten teams over the course of the next twenty years, in each of the ten regions. The establishment of the Regional Training Networks is for the singular purpose of helping to identify and develop those with the highest aptitude and the deepest commitment to the vision of church multiplication.
Not one of the 1,000 churches which will be established will be owned or managed by Asian Access. Every one of them will be in response to the initiative and under the leadership of established Japanese denominations and pastors.

Our Statement of Faith
- We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
- We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, and in His personal return in power and glory.
- We believe that for the salvation of the lost and sinful people regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
- We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
- We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
- We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ, who comprise the church which is His body.
