Abraham had fellowship with the invisible God. He went out, not knowing where he was going, Hebrews 11:8. In verse 15, he was not mindful of the country from which he came out. Currently, we are operating in 23 African countries with 271 churches. Our vision is to reach every...

In Ezekiel 37, the prophet is brought by the Spirit to a valley of very dry bones. As I look out across The United States I see we are a nation of very empty and very dead spirits. As in Ezekiel’s day the Lord asks us, “Can these bones live?”...
The motivation for us to reach out to the unknown parts of the world has been our biblical conviction to speak to those who have never heard, to reach the unreached. This led us, almost forty years ago, to the periphery of The Soviet Union, to the non-Slavic nations in...
We had not had a prayer night in years, and Lord put it in my heart to start again. We prayed until four in the morning. We decided to pray for every region of our country. We prayed for Samarkand and its 14 districts, too. We decided to go to...
