This episode explores the growing movement of co-vocational ministry, a model that intentionally integrates one's everyday work with missional engagement in both local churches and global contexts. Dr. Brad Brisco joins the conversation to unpack the theology of work, clarify the differences between bi-vocational and co-vocational ministry, and share why this long-term approach can strengthen church planting, missionary sustainability, and missional imagination.

“Missions.” What comes to mind when you hear that word? Short-term mission trips? Missionaries who have been in a certain region for decades? Certain countries bringing their “blessings” to other “less fortunate” churches? But when does helping hurt? On this week's show, former dentist and missionary Dr. Charlie Vittitow and founder and president of Life in Abundance (https://lifeinabundance.org) Dr. Florence Muindi discuss their book, Teach a Man to Fish (https://www.amazon.com/Teach-Man-Fish.../dp/1496490061) that talks about what they've seen in decades of serving in missions around the world and how the mindset and methodology has developed from “give them a fish” to “teach them how to fish” mission work. From across the street to around the world, Jesus's model of making fishers is still changing the world, and the Kingdom of God.

In this episode, Dr. Craig Ott unpacks what it means for churches to be truly transformational—rooted in personal and corporate spiritual renewal that reflects God's glory to the world.

We actually address the issue of candidate identification in other series of the Missions on Point podcast. This one is the first of four in an overview of sending, equipping, and shepherding missionaries.  I maintain that having a constant stream of equipping and leadership training in your church is absent in most churches. That's why it's so important to begin to address it. The answers to finding and equipping missionaries from your Church are parallel to those for leaders in your Church, whether elders, pastors, or deacons. We need a thoughtful, well-known process for identifying and training, and putting in place, those leaders.  Missions on Point will help you do that.

97% of Christians believe it is important to share their faith. 95% of Christians never lead anyone to Christ. Today Pastor Ruben finishes The Early Church with a rally call for us. If hell is at stake, we need to act like it. For those who call themselves Christians, this message is for you.

Lucas Teodoro and his organization Aviva is focused on evangelism and youth outreach on university campuses in Brazil.  Aviva has been active for 5 years, reaching over 9,000 university students in Brazil's largest federal universities. They organize weekly “evangelism flows” led by students to continue the outreach efforts. They recently conducted their first large crusade event in Rio de Janeiro, which saw over 2,000 decisions for Christ. The core message they preach is the gospel of Jesus Christ, seeking to address the challenges facing Brazilian youth like depression, anxiety, and family problems. Despite facing opposition and threats on some campuses, the team remains committed to boldly sharing the gospel with university students across the country. The organization's name “Aviva” means “revival” in English, and their vision is to expand these crusade and campus outreach efforts globally.

This podcast episode features a conversation between Evangelist Daniel King and Titus Stevens, a young evangelist who has recently graduated from Oral Roberts University. Titus discusses his calling to help raise up a new generation of evangelists in Brazil, where he believes the country is becoming a training ground for missionaries. He shares insights from his time at ORU and encourages young people to step out in faith, trusting in God's grace rather than their own abilities. Titus also promotes his father's evangelism resources and invites listeners to connect with him on social media to continue learning about effective evangelism strategies.

Churches in Algeria have been closed by the government. Pastors have been threatened. But ministry continues. Pastor Abraham and Sara are back on VOM Radio this week to continue our conversation about God's work in the Middle East and North Africa—and the Christian persecution that Christ's followers face. Listen for the story of one pastor who has repeatedly changed his phone number because of constant threats. Yet he remains in his country and continues to share the gospel with Muslims. They will also offer an update on the situation for Christians in Syria as we near the one-year anniversary of the fall of the Assad regime. Abraham and Sara will also share how Christians fleeing violence and danger in the region are going as missionaries to their new homelands—sometimes reaching their countrymen even in far-off lands! You'll be equipped to pray for Christians in Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Algeria and other nations as you listen this week. The International Day of Prayer for Persecuted Christians (IDOP) is only weeks away. The Voice of the Martyrs offers resources to help you and your church pray for persecuted Christians on November 2–and throughout the year. Be sure to watch the new short film telling the story of ongoing Christian persecution in Democratic Republic of Congo—and how God is bringing healing to Christians who've suffered attacks and trauma. Access all the IDOP resources here.
