Mission Ministry

Think about Jesus’ feeding of the 5,000: What if only the first three rows were fed, leaving the last rows untouched? Similarly, despite Jesus’ call to spread his message to the “ends of the Earth,” over a third of the world lacks access to the gospel. Mission efforts disproportionately prioritize people with gospel access while ignoring those without. A mere penny from every dollar spent on foreign missions reaches the ends of the earth. Kelley, writing in a way that makes a legal scholar jealous, brings us the facts, figures, and passion to expose the massive wrong with compelling evidence.

They operate like a close knit family, sleeping rough under a bridge, supporting each other in their desperate daily struggle for survival, but this group of Filipino street children has a weakness worse than poverty.

As the transformational coach, one of Leanne’s greatest passions is equipping and empowering others to experience a transformation in their spirit, soul, body, and finances. Leanne is a power-packed minister on the subject of identity and destiny, as well as transforming cultures as priests and kings.

The First Letters to the Countries of the World is part 10 of the Book of Benjamin Kareth. God asked me to write letters to each of the countries of the world. These are the first letters written to the countries of the world by me in obedience to the Lord. This book contains 202 letters written to each of the countries in the world at the time of the writing of this book.

"Missional living" is a term coined by Karl Hartenstein in 1934. Karl was a German missiologist who coined the term to describe a disciple of Jesus Christ who is actively living their life looking for opportunities to build into Christ's kingdom through their everyday lives. He argued that every Christian was called to complete the Great Commission - not just pastors and missionaries.

Many marketplace Christians have wrestled with these questions in their lives and in their work. But, from entrepreneurs to assembly line workers, from high-paid execs to minimum-wage hospitality staff, more Christians are becoming overwhelmingly filled with renewed purpose as they realize that their work has a role in God's kingdom plan.

How and why did the McAuleys prepare for the trip-of-a-lifetime to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro, Tanzania with an elevation of 19,341 feet/5,791 meters? Their inspirational travelogue began with a planned meeting with their sponsored child, Beatrice, a young teenager they’d written to for nine years through Compassion International. It ended with meeting servant leaders who brought them in and out of Kilimanjaro National Park in August 2017. Cheryl hopes this book will help others who may be considering sponsoring a child or climbing Kilimanjaro, two activities that are worth the effort.

In the Cold War years, the very name Russia seemed sinister; and then the unimaginable happened: The Iron Curtain came down! Great and effective doors opened all over Russia and Ukraine. An evangelistic explosion took place, and more than 5,000 receptive hearts were saved. This is the dynamic story of how it happened!

To English preacher Charles Spurgeon, winning souls for Christ was “that most royal employment.” This volume of his sermons focuses on that very topic. Some of these messages he delivered as college lectures, and others he gave before congregations of Sunday churchgoers. Gathered into one volume, these sermons will explain what it means to “win a soul”, how to do it, and why our efforts matter.

Sie nannten ihn "Schmuggler Gottes". In einem VW-Käfer fuhr er Bibeln hinter den Eisernen Vorhang. Sein Name: Anne van der Bijl. Sein Pseudonym: "Bruder Andrew". Er gründete die Organisation Open Doors, deren Arbeit von Osteuropa bis hin nach China reicht. Er riskierte sein Leben für Gott und die Menschen, denen er die Gute Nachricht bringt. Ein authentischer Bericht über das Leben verfolgter Christen und den Gott, der Wunder tut.

In 1991, the Iron Curtain was coming down. The Soviet Union was in collapse and Eastern Europe was entering an era of sweeping change. Six Florida teens and their 28-year-old leader joined a student exchange trip to Siberia, entirely unprepared for the impact that their young lives—and more importantly, their faith in Jesus Christ—would have on a country emerging from 70 years of enforced atheism. The Cold War would not end, as many feared, in a nuclear holocaust. Instead, Russia was about to experience a fresh encounter with the Prince of Peace.

More than three billion people in the world have never heard the Gospel - not even once. But who cares? To many American Christians, these statistics about “unreached” people seem too unbelievable to take seriously. How could anyone in this day and age not have heard of Jesus? We assume that people don’t believe in Jesus because they don’t want to - that they’ve had the opportunity and have chosen a different path. We want you to know the people around the world who don’t know Jesus.

Our missionary brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, husbands, and wives would travel thousands of miles to share the gospel to people in faraway lands. They are willing to sacrifice all to share the love of God with these people. Times are changing. Now, God is bringing people from foreign lands right to our shores. Is this a new mission? What is his reason? Unfortunately, the present political climate and rhetoric are making it extremely difficult, if not impossible, for us to have a level-headed discussion when it comes to this topic of migration.

Conundrums are the hurdles in our race to complete the great commission. They can make you run slower or trip you, so the race is never finished. Thus, the ideal solution is to remove the hurdles altogether. A conundrum is a “confusing and difficult problem or question”, which is often a roadblock to progress until and unless it is confronted and resolved. In this audiobook, I hope to address four primary categories, which in my opinion, have done damage to our efforts of fulfilling the Lord’s direct mandate.

In Dragon Ride, the beauty of the Lord is seen through the eyes of Buddhists, atheists, idol-worshippers, Muslims, and an animist as they encounter Jesus. Dragon Ride records the actual conversations Grace had with her friends, and many of them embraced Christ as the answer to their deepest longings. Grace writes about persecution, evading the police, saving lives, helping the homeless and the disabled, and she even writes about the murder of a friend.

What happened to the girl who was not afraid to climb to the top of the waterfall and jump? Who backpacked across Europe? Who took on any feat of bravery without batting an eyelash? You wouldn't recognize her - she's become that woman paralyzed by fear, scared to death to trust God, and trying to manage her family's hectic life, financial crises (yes, plural), and family issues on her own steam. Relatable, touching, and yet hopeful, On the Other Side of Fear is the beautiful story of how one young woman learned to live in God's will, without fear.

In July of 1975, shortly after coming to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, Ron Tyler prayed, “Lord, I will be anything you want me to be! I will go anywhere You want me to go! I will do anything you want me to do!”

Doug Ruffle writes A Missionary Mindset using the timeless principles of E. Stanley Jones and transfers them for use today. Teaching us to approach the mission field as if we were from a different country and learning a new culture, a new way of communicating, and a new way to connect people to the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

This revolutionary yet practical book addresses the causes of burnout many Christians face and empowers them to join God in a joy-fueled movement of Jesus! Vibrancy and joy are what Christians are promised. Yet, many have experienced the opposite: a guilt-ridden, duty-based, judgmental culture that has left them still searching for the life Jesus promised.

When she was a young girl, Jadie (and her missionary family) experienced a brutal attack while on the island of Palau in the South Pacific. That one hellish night left her physically, emotionally, and spiritually damaged. Jadie had the choice to live the life of a victim or to walk the hard road of healing that leads to wholeness in Christ. Though she faced physical injury, emotional scarring (including avoidance, memory loss, and regression), and spiritual attacks, Echoes of Darkness is a story of hope.
