Zealous and its Core Values
A group of Zealous and Dedicated Christian Professionals, who recognized their past before the calling of Jesus Christ and decided to put their Talents as a Harvest for the Body of Christ worldwide.
The Vision is to harvest talents within the Zealous Christian Professionals worldwide without borders, denominations and to become a world leading forum of Christian Professionals delivering services to enhance the development of Churches and communities.
Create Talent bank for the Kingdom of God. The current practice in our churches is to harvest fruits and cash. Churches therefore organize annual harvests and encourage members to bring farm produce and other products to the house of the Lord and raise funds. We underutilize the professional talents within the church and in our communities.
We are called to harvest talents of Zealous Christian Professionals worldwide. Harness these talents into a platform for use by any Christian institution, Communities or body of Christians without borders nor denominations.
We have a lot of talents in the church which are grossly underutilized. It is time to use the Zealous forum to discuss, prepare papers and presentations and collectively teach Church leaders and their members. For instance, we have various professions in the church such as Doctors, Nurses Chartered Accountants and Teachers etc. who are very much underutilized by the Body of Christ.
To be Zealous means you are enthusiastic, eager, passionate and dedicated to a course. Zealous people such as Moses, David, Deborah, Peter and Paul etc. play leadership roles. Zealous people do not sit on the fence or idle, they take prompt action on things, make difference with impact and effect immediate corrections to situations.
It takes Humility, Obedience, Self- discipline, Dedication, Respect and Faith to do the work of God effectively. These are the virtues we apply as criteria for building Zealous Professionals Ambassadors for Christ. It is not a forum for indiscipline and dis-respectfulness. Everyone should examine him/herself whether they are wealthy of the calling before joining the ZCPF and accepting higher responsibilities.

Our Products
The main product of the Zealous Christian Professionals Forum (ZCPF) is the talents from the various skill sets. The skills are already existing in the Christian churches worldwide. ZCPF will harness these talents into a platform for use by any Christian or body of Christians without borders.
Talents will be harvested from various skill sets of members in the body of Christians globally, in categories according to our focus areas. These talents will be channeled into providing services that are identified as being in demand and can be used to enhance the development of the church institutions, the individual worshippers in the churches, and individuals in the general public. Each focus area will be providing at least one service.
While a major part of ZCPF’s products would be providing services, especially in the cities, many of the agricultural and artisan ventures would yield real products. For example, when ZCPF undertakes ostrich farming in Africa and engages Christian youth in the area to work on the farm, ostriches would be produced, the producers, processors, traders will have incomes, consumers will be nourished, etc. thereby enriching households and communities.
How
