A Vision-Strategy for a team of expatriates pioneering among Muslims in Malaysia
THE SITUATION:
1. 23 Million Malay Muslims live in Thailand, Malaysia, Sumatra, Singapore, and Brunei. 99.9% have never met a follower of the Lord Jesus who has made the message of the Cross make sense or necessary to them.
2. Until recently, extremely few of the Chinese, Indian, or even Malay speaking tribal-background churches have [...]
Adopt a terrorist for prayer
If revival starts with prayer, then your help could be a big part of turning back the onslaught of Godless secularism in our generation.
Is Islam a religion of peace?
Are God and Allah the same?
Are radical Christians just as threatening as radical Muslims?
These may be the questions you hear people popularly debating, but most minds are [...]
A vision for an Azerbaijani Forum
The North American Azerbaijani Network will host a forum to focus on mission to the gateway Azerbaijani people of Azerbaijan and Iran on April 24-26 in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The 40 million Azerbaijani have only 10,000 believers (0.02%), and are a strategic people group for impacting the Persian, Turkic, Arabic, and Russian worlds.
The North American [...]
Orality Workshops
The workshops are open to people considering but not yet committed to OneStory projects. Completion of this workshop is NOT sufficient training for being involved in official OneStory Projects, but would be beneficial to people working with primarily oral communicators. Space is limited, so participants are considered individually according to background and interest. The cost [...]
How stories change nations.
It was another hot day in Las Palmas. I had just explained to my new teammate that we needed to hold back sharing the Gospel with our Muslim friends until we knew more about them. Later, heading down in the elevator, we were dazed at what had happened. God had showed up to do something [...]
Literacy in West Africa
While I grew up in a large city of North Africa, I took it for granted that very few people could not read and write. My mother was a teacher, and her father had been the director of a school, and practically everyone around me knew how to read and write. I did not realize [...]
Elijah Company Missions Training
Next training event: January 25-28, 2007
Elijah Company was founded in 1998 with the purpose of mentoring workers for missions. Over 180 missions-minded people have now been through these training camps. Many of them are presently on fields around the world. Our input into each varied, as the Lord leads. For some we were a “jump-start”, [...]
Equipping for Ministry to Muslims
Islam is the greatest challenge to the church in the 21st Century. The challenge does not stem from Muslim rejection of the gospel, but from the increasing fear and mistrust of all Muslims that many Christians have. In fact, Islamic terrorism is causing some Christians to hate Muslims.
It is true that some Muslims will always [...]
Radio: sowing seeds in Nigeria
Jesus, the teacher and healer, walks to a lake and sits down. A large crowd gathering around him causes him to get into a small boat, sit down, and teach the followers from this better vantage point. Drawing their thinking toward sharing the good news with others, he teaches them with a story. Viewing in [...]
World In Need’s vision for children
On the hands of God are written every name of every child. The way we treat them today will determine how they turn out, for good or evil, in the future.
A child that is a young girl is sitting on a mattress that serves as a seat in the living room of her mother’s bleak [...]
