great commission equipping...

Encouraged by the Lord that our ministry years weren’t finished after our season in India, we returned to the US in 2005 with the desire to integrate God’s passion and heart for the nations with the local Church.   We realized afresh that we are called to equip, encourage and release workers in to the harvest.

As we prayed, we kept seeing an image of the hub of a wheel with its many spokes. The inner hub is the central source of God’s dunamis power, His Presence, and the personal, intimate love relationship He intends for us to enjoy with Him!  The spokes emanating from this Center, pointing in different directions, represent the various expressions of ministry and networking.  All are committed to the same goal: the forward movement of the entire wheel, which is the advancement of God’s Kingdom here on earth to see the great commission fulfilled.
 
Several key elements describe who we are and what we do!

prayer
  • We’ve made a priority of praying together every day before beginning our other assignments.  We enjoy walking and praying on a beautiful country lane in our neighborhood, that affords us quiet, peace, and exercise, as we intercede daily for family, ministry, church, our leaders, the needy and sick, and others as led.  This is the most important part of our day!
  • Strategic prayer mentoring is a growing involvement as we’re requested to input and instruct others for effective intercession
  • We lead prayer teams on strategic assignments, both in the US and internationally.
  • We’re often called upon for prayer leadership for local, national and international prayer gatherings and personal ministry needs.

equipping
  • Teaching through ministry schools (Destiny School of Ministry) seminars (Rooted discipleship course), conferences, workshops, retreats and speaking for YWAM training schools.
  • Writing… We both have authored books intended to equip the Body of Christ towards maturity and discovering their purpose.
  • Mentoring… encouraging and strengthening missionaries at home and on the field

networking
  • Connecting international ministries with local believers with the purpose of ongoing relationship building.
  • Networking with other like-hearted ministries domestically and abroad
  • Hosting international leaders, linking them  with our local congregation with the goal of long term partnerships

mobilizing
  • ‘Visionating’ (or… casting vision!) among the local church for reaching the yet unreached regions of the world
  • Providing encouragement and opportunities for the Body of Christ to participate in international outreaches and missions assignments
  • Preparing and leading short term outreaches with the goal of building a ‘Kingdom worldview’ in the hearts of participants
  • Offering tools and training to prepare missions and outreach teams
