MAPS Global Podcast

In this episode, we have special guest Kimberly Hager back on the podcast! Kimberly discusses the significance of unlocking your identity by finding your voice and what it means to be made in the image of the singing God. We hope that you experience freedom and gain confidence to express as God has created you to as you listen to this discussion.

Listen to a fun Q/A style discussion where a few MAPS Global staff pick R.A. Martinez's brain for answers to a variety of questions. Every Tuesday, he jumps on his Instagram story (@r.a.martinez) and takes questions from anyone who has questions they just can't seem to get answered. We compiled a few of our favorite questions from those Tuesdays Q/A's to get answered in this podcast discussion. We asked about women in leadership, marriage, ministry burn out, the prosperity mindset, the mark of the beast… and more. Enjoy this fun, fast-paced, and informative discussion!

Patrick Currie, founder of Jajeh Leadership Group, returns to the podcast to discuss another round on Self-Awareness! R.A. Martinez and Patrick start by defining "self-awareness" by identifying our tendencies, patterns, actions, consequences, and the reality we create around us. Then we take a turn to discuss the pitfalls in the modern self improvement trends. The heart of all of our energy towards self improvement must be the cross and the pursuit of the highest possible good for the people under and around you. Could Self-Awareness really not be about us?

The nation of Israel, which hosts more Christian visitors every year than any other nation, is still classified as an unreached nation. Many who say they "support" Israel are often lured by a sentimental support that does not seriously consider the condition of Israel languishing without a witness of the gospel. The apparent disconnect has caused much confusion in the Body of Christ over what to do with the "issue of Israel". Sadly, this has been reduced to which side we are going choose in the Palestinian/Israeli conflict. In this episode, R.A. Martinez walks though God's sovereign election, historic suffering and future salvation of the Jewish people as prophesied about in the Scriptures and then takes a look at how the New Testament writers showed their support for Israel who are "enemies of the gospel" as well as "beloved for the sake of their forefathers".

In Christ, God has reconciled our history and is using it to launch us into our destiny. Satan is sowing seeds to try to steal, stall it out and supplant it with regret, bitterness and jealousy. In the third episode of the Destiny Destroyers series, R.A. Martinez explores what might be the most destructive of the three Destiny Destroyers: Jealousy. From Cain and Abel until now, jealousy has been fueling the spirit of murder between brothers and sisters and, as the Apostle James tells us, gives a place for "disorder and every evil practice." It's time to renounce regret, uproot bitterness and refuse jealousy!

R.A. Martinez continues a very special episode where he interviews our very own J.L. on the history, current reality and destiny of African American Missionaries.There is a unique and irreplaceable role for African Americans in the frontier missions movement, and the history of missions in America points to this powerful destiny. We believe that there are thousands of African American men and women whom God has set apart for the work of praying, preaching and singing among the unreached nations of the earth. In the second half of this conversation, we discuss two more "firsts" in missions history and the effect that the Student Volunteer Movement had on African American representation in global missions.
