#051 From the Field: A Worthy Pursuit Apr 30, 2017

Show notes

In September of 2015, God called Alan and Sydney to share the gospel through their new business in the Middle East amongst a Muslim people group. After being in the field for only a year, they quickly witnessed how God was moving in the hearts of those they ministered to—all the while, growing in sincere love and community with their new friends. On Thanksgiving Day in 2016, Alan and Sydney received a call that changed their life as they knew it. Sydney’s mother’s disease was getting worse—with a life expectancy of only eight short months. Alan and Sydney now face the heartbreaking decision of having to leave the place God has called them to, in order to care for Sydney’s mom in her last days.

#050 From the Field: Boldness Bears Fruit Apr 23, 2017

Show notes

Two years into living in the Middle East, Casey felt discouraged by the lack of fruit he saw in his ministry. Just as he and his wife were preparing to return to the States to visit family, Casey felt compelled to share the gospel with an Arab friend that he came to know and love.

In return, Casey learned that his friend was wrestling with the truths of the Bible, and he confessed that “God was knocking on the door of his heart.” God used this encounter to encourage and endure Casey in his ministry, and Casey continued to pray for his friend to respond in faith to Jesus. He didn’t expect what would happen next.

#048: Adopted to Serve Mar 12, 2017

Show notes

“I wasn’t in a good place when Jesus began pursuing me, and I didn’t want to be a part of His family, but He didn’t stop pursuing me.”

Jon and Ben felt convicted by the Spirit to serve in the foster care system, but as two single men, they weren’t sure what role they could play. With the Lord’s leading, they enacted a plan to start a Parents’ Night Out program on a monthly basis to give parents an opportunity to have a night to themselves.

Developing the Parents’ Night Out has been hard, and its growth has been stalled along the way. But with the support of their Missional Community, and by the power of the Holy Spirit, God is using Jon and Ben to serve foster families.
