   A Muddy Road, Border Patrol, and Secret Church

   Posted on May 11th, 2012 by Angelia Stewart

   The following pictures are from one of our partners in Africa where they are holding Secret Church conferences. Pastors in the region are invited to attend the conference where for several days they will study through various Secret Church sessions. It is the rainy season in Kenya. This is the road that many of the pastors and facilitators traveled each day to attend the conference. In spite of the difficulties, like muddy roads, this group of pastors traveled each day to study the Word. However, some of the difficulties were insurmountable.  The Sudanese pastors that (Continue reading…)

   Posted on May 4th, 2012 by Brooke Miller

   Jim Warren, Executive Director of Radical, had the opportunity to travel to the Horn of Africa just one week after Secret Church and spend time with friends who are serving among the people of the Horn of Africa. We asked him to share about his time in the Horn and have posted his reflections throughout this week. There are two distinct impressions I came away with. The first is that their objective is a worthy one; make the Good News of Jesus known among some of the hardest to reach people groups on the planet. (Continue reading…)

   Posted on May 3rd, 2012 by Brooke Miller

   Jim Warren, Executive Director of Radical, had the opportunity to travel to the Horn of Africa just one week after Secret Church and spend time with friends who are serving among the people of the Horn of Africa. We asked him to share about his time in the Horn and will be posting his reflections throughout the week. We were able to spend time with those serving both mid-term and long-term.

   Reflections from the Horn—Part 2

   Posted on May 2nd, 2012 by Brooke Miller

   Jim Warren, Executive Director of Radical, had the opportunity to travel to the Horn of Africa just one week after Secret Church and spend time with friends who are serving among the people of the Horn of Africa. We asked him to share about his time in the Horn and are posting his reflections throughout the week. The Horn of Africa is an incredibly complex part of the world. There are 114 people groups represented among its 100 million inhabitants. I knew these statistics to be true, but the weight of this reality did not (Continue reading…)

7. Secret Church: Information Overload?

   Posted on April 19th, 2012 by Brooke Miller

   If you’ve ever been to Secret Church—or perhaps watched one online—you know that when you finish you feel as if you’ve been trying to sip from a fire hydrant for the past six—er, seven—hours. It’s a bit of information overload. And guess what?! It’s supposed to be! The Beginning The idea for Secret Church came from a time when Pastor David was invited to teach a group of house church believers. Day after day they returned to learn more about the Bible. They asked Pastor David to teach them about the entire Old Testament, and (Continue reading…)
