Everyone is in favor of missions, right? Well, that kind of depends.  Sure, Jesus said to “Go, make disciples of all nations”, but what does that mean for a local church in Your Town, U.S.A.?  Is it true that a commitment to missions can detract from the work of a local church? Is it true that involvement in missions can breathe fresh zeal into the life of a church?  Listen for insights for your church.

Jesus went to the outcast and rejected people of His time. Sick, crippled, blind, lepers, prostitutes, and all kinds of hopeless people. Truth is, that’s exactly who He came to love and to bless. A heartbreaking situation is taking place today in a South Asia refugee camp, and He is coming to those people in amazing and life-changing ways. Listen to how Christian people are reaching out in the midst of an otherwise desperate situation.

Talk about a church on fire! But not the kind of fire that burns down a building. There is a movement underway in South Asia that has planted over 3,000 churches in a short time. Just what do these “churches” look like and how is it that they are multiplying so quickly? Is the Gospel being shared and believed? Listen to find out that the “fire” is in the hearts of the believers.

Some mission projects provide food for the hungry or medical care for the sick.  Others provide agricultural assistance or fresh-water wells for villages.  This one provides a skill that will make a life-long difference for the learners.

People all over Africa desperately want to learn to read and write in a language they know.  Having those skill literally transforms their futures.

In a small island in the Caribbean, God is doing some amazing things. Life-changing things in people’s bodies and hearts. Sick people arrive at 5 am to get loved and prayed over. Then they are helped with their medical needs. Be inspired as the Chairman of the Board and a physical therapist share how God uses this medical center to help people and restore their futures.

The Bethesda Medical Center in Haiti touches lives and impacts souls. People served there say they receive more than much-needed medical attention. They are grateful for the healing touch of Dr. Rodney and his staff, and they are thankful that they also receive spiritual help and wholeness. Bodies and lives and families are being put back together. Futures are getting brighter and hearts are being lifted. Be encouraged and inspired as you hear what God is doing in Haiti.
