There is an alarming trend in missions to focus only on addressing social problems like feeding and clothing the poor, instead of preaching the Gospel and planting churches.The lost are weary and oppressed, grasping to have temporary needs met but never awake to hope in Christ. Improving temporary conditions is important to us, but it is secondary to investing in people's eternity.
To focus on meeting temporary physical needs at the expense of bringing the lost to salvation is to trample on the blood of Jesus. |
Everyone should get an opportunity to meet Jesus before they die.
Empowered by prayer, fasting, and worship, we go to the difficult places and proclaim the good news to the poor.

MARIA“I was sold into sex trafficking by my brother when I was 8 years old. A woman named Nicole found me when I was 11, and I moved into the Village Children’s home - but the drugs and trauma trapped me in a vicious cycle. I ran away from home with pimps and had three baby boys by the time I was 17 - all of whom were raised at the Village Children’s home. I finally surrendered my life to Jesus and came home to the Village. Now I am happily married and raising my sons to love Jesus.”

Andres "I am thankful I have a bed to sleep in and a family who loves me. I am thankful that I have food to eat and I am no longer a drunkard who wakes up in ditches."
|
Linda"I was widowed at 28, the mother of two boys. I worked as a housekeeper to sustain my family and I became the mistress of one of the wealthier men in town, though he was married with a family. I had a daughter with him. When my daughter was 10, I was in search of work, and an American family, the Hancocks, gave me a job. The woman, Audrey, told me about Jesus and my life was changed forever. I stopped the affair with my daughter's father and dedicated my existence to Jesus. I can’t stop telling people about how He changed my life and gave me hope."
|
Josué"Working on this farm has positively impacted me spiritually and economically, because the good salary I get for working here gives me, my wife, and my kids a better standard of living. And in a spiritual sense, the most important thing is how the brothers (missionaries) speak to us from the word of God and tell us of the love that we need to have for all of the other workers."

NicolásI was working with a group of men on the side of the road when 2 missionaries, Garrett and Alex, stopped their truck and told us about Jesus. We listened but didn’t respond. They asked for our phone numbers, so I gave them mine, but I ignored their calls. One day, I met those same men, going house to house talking about Jesus. They asked if they could come back to visit me. It would have been rude to say no, so I agreed, but any time I saw them coming, I would hide in my cornfield. One day, they came while I was still at the house. They told me about Jesus. I told them I didn’t want to pray for salvation. They asked if they could read me the Bible. I said yes, and invited them back. They read the Bible to me every week. After 2 or 3 months, Garrett asked me again if I wanted to give my life to Jesus. I said yes. And now I am a pastor, going to other villages to teach people about the Bible.

WANT TO TRAIN TO BECOME A MISSIONARY?
Be prepared to introduce people to Jesus in any context or culture.
So many broken and hopeless people know about Jesus, but they live and die without ever actually knowing Him. |
There is an alarming trend in missions to focus only on addressing social problems like feeding and clothing the poor instead of preaching the Gospel and planting churches. So the lost may have their temporary physical needs met, but they still face eternal separation from Jesus.
Empowered by prayer, fasting, and worship, we go to the difficult places and proclaim the good news to the poor. We disciple through house churches and corporate worship and we train national pastors to reach the lost in their own culture. If we crucify our flesh and go in obedience to the Great Commission, we will see God bring salvation to His sons and daughters in every nation on earth. |
How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
Romans 10:14-15
