Reverend Edmund Chan has a twin passion in ministry — expository preaching and leadership mentoring. His insightful biblical teachings have made him a sought-after speaker indifferent major cities around the world, often with invitations 3–5 years ahead. After leading as the Senior Pastor of Covenant Evangelical Free Church (CEFC) for 25 years, Edmund implemented a successful leadership-succession plan in January 2012. Now as the Leadership Mentor, he continues to mentor top-level leaders within Singapore and beyond. These include CEOs, senior pastors and denominational leaders, theological educators as well as national and regional directors of para-church organisations. His present leadership focus is to champion the global vision for the IDMC movement through the Global Alliance of Intentional Disciple Making Churches (IDMC Global Alliance).
