Let’s rejoice together in the victories that are happening in Vietnam. Because of the CMN training sessions, hundreds of pastors and leaders are mentoring / discipling men in following Jesus.

This is a huge new step in transforming a nation!

The Dangerous Nations broadcasts last week reached hundreds of leaders again across the nation. Now, over 2,000 pastors and leaders have taken part.

We’re in this fight every day … and so much of the time we’re in the process of working, planning, praying, meeting together – and then there is the day of a victory. And like David, we celebrate the day of victory.

2 Samuel 22 is one of the most encouraging chapters in the Bible, David wrote; “He trains my hands for battle; he strengthens my arm to draw a bronze bow. You have given me your shield of victory; your help has made me great … “You have armed me with strength for the battle; you have subdued my enemies under my feet.” Rejoice!

From Uganda to Vietnam – from Peru to Indonesia the church of Jesus is moving forward.

My brother, don’t be troubled by the news or what’s happening or negative leadership … be encouraged and let’s celebrate the victories.

The final word is – Jesus wins. In Vietnam, and across the nations.

I was sorting some photos and ran across a photo of my mom and wife and our children, my Mom’s grandchildren. My heart filled with emotion. She’s been in heaven for over twenty years.

So grateful she prayed for me and never quit.

The photos Judi and I take now are with our grandchildren – and someday after we’re gone – they’ll have the same experience of looking back and fondly remembering. And, they’ve also had a grandmother (Gammi) who prays for them daily. 

Not only did my mom pray for me and my sisters – she always had a timely word of advice.

Perhaps the greatest advice we read in the Bible is also from a mom.

At Jesus’ first miracle at the wedding in Cana Mary, the mother of Jesus, had asked her son to do something about helping with the shortage of wine. It’s a funny story in context but also powerfully became the launch of Jesus’ ministry on earth.

After asking Jesus to solve the shortage issue – she turned to the servants standing nearby and said, “Whatever he says to do – do it.” They filled the jars with water and the miracle of it becoming wine propelled Jesus into his earthly mission.

“Whatever he says to do – do it.” A perfect word for you and me. How Jesus said to live, what he told us to do, why we have purpose in our lives – whatever he says, do it. 

Thank God for Moms.
Thank God for Moms who pray.
And thank God for Moms with great advice. 

 This Vietnamese man IS equipped with the CMN resources he needs to live a successful Christian life in a communist country and reach other men for Christ.

Please help more men like him

GIVE TODAY

Join with the brotherhood on May 3-4 (Tuesday-Wednesday), from 9-11 pm Central (10 pm -12 am  Eastern). We will broadcast straight from the CMN studios to the men and leaders of Vietnam, translated into their own language. 

View it here: CMN YouTube Channel.

Would you please consider giving a generous gift today to help support this broadcast? It’s not too late to help Vietnamese men know Jesus!

Each “Dangerous Nations” broadcast costs roughly $20,000. Faithful men have given toward this Tuesday’ broadcast, but the budget is incomplete. 

Every $100 helps train a leader, who will then train 20-200 men.

Every $10 matters.
