This year, the release of the Believers Faith Challenge Report coincides with the end of the year. In this episode, Missions Director Tim Dodd summarizes the stories.

In this episode Brother Tim Dodd shares a series of interviews with laborers on the field he obtained while traveling through Uganda this Fall. Long time Pastors such as Brother Hannington Balita, and younger Message Pastors such as Elijah Diogo share their thoughts and experiences. Brother Fred Kiyingi’s son Moses, now a minister himself, shares his perspective, and Brother Moges Engida, a Pastor in Ethiopia, shares some of his impressions from seeing the awakening first hand.

Brother Tim Dodd was recording short interviews on the fly as he traveled through Uganda recently. These fascinating snippets include this interview with Brother Fred Kiyingi, who hosted an outside meeting for new Message ministers on the grounds of his church. The building could never accommodate the number who would attend, and not all ministers were invited, just to be sure the grounds would not be overrun. Hundreds were expected, but at least 1200 attended. Local government officials have been attending these and other meetings, with some of them receiving the Word as it is preached. In this podcast, Brother Tim and Brother Fred discuss this, and other victories.

In this episode Tim Dodd reports personally from Uganda, as he travels the country and sees the revival first hand. Included are interviews with Brother James Katumba, who oversees the construction of church shelters, Brother Juma, a young pastor who has been harassed even by the Police, after leaving his denomination, and Brother Stephen Ibale.  These unscripted interviews are being caught on the fly, without much set up.

In this podcast Brother Murphy Wong shares testimonies which reveal the maturity of the Believers in China. Evidence abounds, from their active witnessing in the face of persecution and jail, to miraculous healings. Bro Murphy shares one outstanding testimony a Brother completely healed of cancer. The Chinese Believers have also been contributing to Missions work in other countries. Recently a number of Chinese churches cooperated to raise funds to send 1000 mp3 players loaded with translated Messages to Rwanda. Brother Murphy also shares how the Chinese King James Bible has become a witnessing tool. The Bibles are shipped with a Message book slipped inside. This, all by itself, is bearing fruit in new Believers. 

Brother David Kombo was born in the Congo, and is now a Pastor in the Boston, Massachusetts area. He originally came to America for education, but his life’s work has revolved around missions and ministry. Brother David has worked as a translator of the Message into the French language, and now hosts an annual Missions convention in his area. While ministering at this convention in October, Brother Tim Dodd was able to capture this fascinating interview with Brother David as they travelled together in the car.
