Dear Kip, hearing your sermon on the life of Elijah (esp. vs the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel) from the early days of the ICOC was so inspirational to me back then. But hearing you just this last weekend, again preaching on the life of Elijah… it was the most impassioned and intense sermon I think I have ever heard! Who of us in the room could not be impacted and moved by your heart, your energy and your determination to see God’s will done – the evangelisation of the nations in one generation? I thank God that our paths have crossed, that I can (once again) call you my brother, and that your life and doctrine have inspired so many to follow the risen and living Saviour of the world, the King of heaven, Jesus Christ. 2 Chronicles 15:7. Love Simon.

Kip,
Even though I lost my faith years ago, my time in Boston as a college student was the most impactful time in my life. As I travel quite a bit, I have shared the news and pointed them to churches in Mumbai and Manila. I am not sure why I am compelled to share what I feel I have lost, but I wanted to thank you.

We moved to Eugene, Oregon in April, 2003 to be near family 4 weeks after my husband Rich had surgery for Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. The Eugene church planting was supposed to planted from San Francisco, but plans disolved and we waited. Then a call came, lunch, and 6 months later, Kip and the Portland Church sent out, what would be the promised Eugene planting. For many years, Portland prayed for, and we are finally able to live near our family with an amazing group of disciples! Thank you for not quitting! We have now been able to send out many U of O, and OSU students around the World, and have baptized our daughter. We are all grateful for you and Elena and your family! To God Be the Glory!

Once again Thank you very much Kip.

On the first: I want to thank Pastor Kip McKean on the years he spent in repairing the teaching of the Church. And made us look to God in a different way. He explained to us how to worship God through the Bible.
I’m a fan of what your heard about you from the church leaders here in the past … and I loved your teaching of the Bible. Until it became my dream to be a teacher in the church …
But your resignation from the church like a Puzzle for me.
My question is: Is there any difference now teach you about who submitted in 1979 or just differences in administrative …
Is very important to know this … because we do not know a lot about you here…..

Sorry if my English is not good

The only thing I ask of you Kip is to never bow to the standard of the world.All these years as a movement the ICOC has preached the intensity of Christ. I always say he is the ” I did not come to bring peace” guy. Studying Hebrew recently has helped me to even believe that more. We have a way to think especially in Christendom that Christ was this softy guy who went around tolerating all kinds of sins and saying “its ok”. At the end of the day no matter what was God’s purpose in my life, The ICOC was used by God to make me an intense man, a ferocious lion, who looks to make war against sin. Yea yea lol i dont care much how that sounds. You can take a lion down you can injure him, but you cant make him into the most submissive animal. there is a spirit that needs to roused in all mankind if they are to meet their creator one day. My spirit started to rouse the first time i stepped into a service of the ICOC. Keeep rolling Kip, always put God first.
