The ROCK seeks to redefine the architecture of the Church within the parameters of Christianity. Upon this rock I will build my Church; the words of Jesus in Matthew 16:18 is the pivot around which all the functions of this scheme revolve. The emergent form is therefore a literal exploration of the hardness of the rock to make a strong aesthetic statement for the Christ Temple as a foundation and a leader for the International Central Gospel Church and the cause of Christianity as a whole.
