We’ve seen these movements of God happen in places where it takes great faith to even be a Christian, let alone share your faith. It can happen anywhere. ... See MoreSee Less

Recently, a team went and shared the story of Jesus with an unreached and unengaged people group in Kenya. Many of them have had dreams and visions of Jesus. Praise the Lord that a mother, her daughter and her friend all accepted the Lord as their savior and are sharing with others. Thank you Jesus for the opportunity to share with those who have never heard. .Learn more about where we work at hubs.la/Q021bG1C0 ... See MoreSee Less

Recently in a conversation with a friend, it came to mind that one of the hardest parts in disciple making is seeing actual multiplication.

Stories From Around The World
In Cameroon — Africa, due to heavy rains, truck engines catching fire, unpassable roads... our Biglife team could not get to an unreached people group named the Bomwalis for 5 months. But as you can imagine, the Lord made a way and Biglife later learned the Bomwalis had actually evacuated because of flooding and had not been in their homes for 5 months, but had now returned! Not only did Biglife, and our partner, not give up for five months, but the irony is not lost on us that the Bomwalis would not have even been there had they arrived earlier. Is God in control? We know He is! Bomwali believers are now reaching other Bomwalis for Jesus Christ, for the first time ever!
In 2010, the last church building in Afghanistan was destroyed. There may have been as few as 400 Christians in the whole country. But since then, we’ve seen thousands of people give their lives to Jesus Christ in Afghanistan! How? Through the witness of some former Pashtun Muslims, that became fervent Christ followers. These leaders, and other courageous disciples are getting more and more Muslim Outreach Bibles into the hands of truth-seeking Afghans, despite the threat of Taliban and ISIS killers.
Vijaya Lama used to worship Hindu idols in Nepal. He was also a handy thief. But when he stole a Bible, that stolen Word changed his life. He surrendered to Jesus. Now Jesus is using Vijaya to steal hundreds of Hindus back from the grip of idolatry and sin. He travels from village to village in the mountain passes of Nepal, determined that even if the police come to arrest him for sharing the freedom of Jesus, he will not deny Christ. This video tells the story of how God’s Word is changing Nepal, one heart at a time.
Dieu Sanh, a rice farmer and a former Buddhist, has been sharing the love of Jesus with the people of Vietnam for many years. The authorities of Vietnam responded by imprisoning Dieu Sanh for many years. All he had to do to gain his freedom was to promise to stop telling people about Jesus. Though he missed his family, Dieu Sanh refused every time. “I will preach Jesus,” he said. This video shows how Jesus miraculously made a way for Dieu Sanh to go free, and then to go into all Vietnam.
