FromTheForeFront

Join us today as we talk missions with Zack Loving, joined by our friend in common, Billy Bohannon.

Originally from remote Southeast Texas, Zack and his family are half timers. Maybe that word doesn’t mean what you think it means? Half the year Zack and family are in Thailand and half in Alaska! Can you say “I’d rather you be hot or cold?”

Not sure that Zack, a pilot, thought about that when agreeing to dedicate his life in Aviation missions. Find out about his work with Free Burma Rangers and more about him, too, on this edition of From The Forefront, an FXMissions Podcast.

A trainer, discipler, and seriously excellent photographer, Kerry joins us to talk about his start in missions 30+ years ago, and more.

You’ll be encouraged by his story and example.

Join Scott McClelland of FXMissions and Scott Shay as we dig into his recent publication, In Good Faith. Scott demonstrates courage as he digs into overarching themes of culture and belief, and how they intersect.

When is the last time you heard the word “idolatry” in the public forum? Scott courageously brings this subject to the forefront. Learn more about Scott Shay by watching his Google Talk (I tell you the man is brave!) or at his website from the links below.

You can buy your copy of In Good Faith from the site!

Join Timmy Ost and Scott McClelland as shares about what he is doing in Austin, TX, which seems to somehow be a “full circle” considering his family’s historic leadership and pioneering efforts for the Gospel in Mexico. 

In the 1950s their pioneering efforts began with his grandfather, Daniel Ost. You’ll be challenged and inspired.

Psst.. share this with someone you know who has missions on their mind. And thanks.

How do we go from the margins of life to the flow? Poverty is a challenge, an Immobilizer, and often a barrier to God’s call on our lives and promises He has made to us. 

Vidar shares with us some nuggets of wisdom from his recently published book to help us navigate toward progress on this path, including how personal growth is key to ministry growth.

Find the book and much more, and make contact with Vidar at Safarimission.org

Luis and Karla Hurtado sit down with us from location in Central Mexico to talk about the work among a native tribe in the Mexican State of San Luis Potosí, which is located in the center in Mexico. Luis, a Doctor by training, treats the members of the tribe medically, and has planted a church among them. A simple life in a very remote part of the world, the Hurtados work daily to see the gospel grow and take root in the hearts and lives of the Chityui tribe.

Jeanne Hedrick (wife of Tony, a good friend!, and an incredible cook) joins us to talk growing up Christian, rural upbringing, and the journey from obscurity to usefulness in the Kingdom. A powerful visitation of God’s grace in Canada brought them back from waywardness in their early 30s.

The story of discipleship, church planting, pastoring, and the journey of the last 20+ years into missions is unfolded eloquently by Jeanne.

Join her to be encouraged by her depth and faithfulness. Reach out to Jeanne at adverturingwithgod@yahoo.com, and when you do, ask to have your email added to her monthly devotional. Rich stuff!
