Global revival and evangelization… Cross cultural ministry with Power!
Vision is absolutely necessary for ministry! Last time I talked about how having a vision and being able to impart it to others as vital for you to gain not only financial support, but also prayer support for mission work or any type of ministry.
Here are some quick notes on vision from the Practical Ministry/Marketing [...]

Missionaries - beware! Especially Western missionaries… and particularly American missionaries! We have a bad reputation of entering a nation and taking over. Granted, in pioneer missions, this may be exactly what is needed, for the incoming missionary to “do it all.” However, most missionaries never move out of that position, essentially keeping themselves as over [...]

It’s a common scenario, but not necessarily a bad one! Jesus’ parable in Luke 8 about the farmer and the [...]
Global evangelization and revival is only going to happen when God’s people start praying with power. Once you’ve discerned some of the strongholds of a nation (the weeds!), then it’s time to walk in what the bible calls “the glory of the saints.” Psalm 149:6-9

How can we see global evangelization and global revival? Don’t forget - this is possible! If the glory of God is going to cover the earth as the waters cover the sea, then… (See my previous blog called “God’s Glory Not Conditional - Your Participation is.”)
It starts one nation at a time! Okay - now [...]
