One Link Podcast

Listen in as we talk with a couple about how God has used O-week in their lives, both as a student & as volunteers. 

Ending our series on working with Muslims, we discuss the cost of following Jesus and  share a true story of a Muslim Background Believer (MBB) who is currently in prison for his faith. Brad also mentions a talk that was very influencial for him by John Piper called, "Doing Missions When Dying is Gain." https://www.desiringgod.org/messages/doing-missions-when-dying-is-gain#full-audio

God is using dreams and visions to reach Muslims.  How do we work alongside God in an area of His work most of us are not familiar with?

We continue our interview with Zach talking about what Muslims believe.  In this episode we are going to talk about Ramadan, Sin, what they believe about Jesus, and sharing with Muslims.

We have a special guest in this episode who spent 12 years overseas working with Muslims. We'll be talking about the history of Islam, the Haj, and the rest of the 5 Pillars of Islam.

Is there a best approach to ministry with Muslims? Today we give you a framework to consider as you approach cross-cultural ministry as well as some specific examples.      Music: Al Andalus by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com Licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/

Some things divide us, and some bring us together. Stereotypes divide and friendships bring together. It's hard to share your faith with someone you only know through stereotypes. It's hard to receive truth when you can't see past the narrative you've heard.  

We continue to discuss the issues around contextualization.  In this episode we dive into more of the specifics.

Contextualization is a thorny issue.  Is it good? Is it bad? What exactly is it, and why does it matter? This episode begins our at least 7 part mini-series on working with Muslims. 

Wrapping up our interview with Brad and Marci.  Hearing the story of their work overseas and then the call to leave their work there and take up a new work here. 

Continuing our interview with Brad and Marci we'll hear a funny language/cultural story followed by some time talking about being a parent overseas and God's grace covering hard times. 

Today the host becomes the guest. This episode is part 1 of an interview with Brad and Marci exploring Brad's salvation as a college student, their respective journeys to the field, and how God brought their lives together to serve him as family overseas. 

Interview with Overseas Partner!  Hear about how God removed them from a fertile field and placed them in a new field full of rocks.  You'll hear about their struggles, but you'll also hear how God has brought them to the place where they are beginning to dream again. When we asked him what he would say to potential missionaries he said, "Be prepared to suffer and for it to take a lot longer than you think."
