Our guest in this episode is a Rev. Robert “Rob” Anderson, missionary and founder of International Mission Ministries: A support and service ministry to missionaries, and their families, around the world and in the United States. 

In this episode, Rob shares the staggering truth of the missionary call and His vision through International Missions Ministries as followed:

With the Lord Jesus Christ as our guide, and us as His hands and feet, we will go into all the world to support and serve Christian missionaries and their families in ways that will empower and encourage them to accomplish the call that God has placed on their lives.

"Go ye into all the World" We at I.M.M. believe that in this process missionaries can experience a refreshing and renewal in their ministry calling and in their personal and family relationships, to empower, encourage and strengthen them in the Lord so they can continue to fulfill the Great Commission and complete the call that God has placed on their lives.

Welcome to Unscripted with IMF Leaders, where we dive deep into the heart of global Christian ministry, engaging with inspiring leaders who are on the frontlines of serving others. This podcast, hosted by the International Ministerial Fellowship (IMF), is dedicated to supporting the 100,000 Christ-centered leaders we aim to equip worldwide. 

Our guest in this episode is a preacher, pastor, and founder of Giving Ministries: Jason Oehrlein! Jason was born and raised in Minnesota. He is happily married to his loving, godly wife Ellie. Pastor Jason was radically saved by the Lord Jesus Christ in 2013 and was supernaturally freed from many addictions. Now, the Lord is using him to preach and teach the Word of God in the U.S. and several other nations. His heart is to see the Body of Christ grow in the revelation of the person of Jesus Christ through reading the Holy Bible and prayer. At the same time, Jason has a tremendous love for lost souls because he knows what it's like to be without Jesus.

Recently, Jason has become a self-published author of the book "Pray Like Never Before" which is helping many grow closer to Jesus Christ and be strengthened in their prayer life.

In this episode we welcome two extraordinary leaders Aye Chananan, the National Director of Sisters of Grace and Emily Leatherbarrow the President and Founder. Join us as we dive into the incredible work being done by Sisters of Grace- a ministry providing a sanctuary for young girls in the perilous and impoverished villages of Northern Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos. The grim reality is that human trafficking has become more profitable than the drug trade with children as young as four or five being sold into slavery. Aye and Emily share their inspiring journey and the unwavering leadership that fuels Sisters of Grace. They reveal how their ministry offers more than just rescue—providing community, love, and comprehensive support including personalized therapy, education, life skills, vocational training, and the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Tune in to hear heart-wrenching stories of rescue, hope, and redemption, and discover how Sisters of Grace is making a profound difference in lives. This episode is a testament to the power of compassion and the unyielding fight against human trafficking.
