What Church Leaders and Pastors are saying…
I'm enthusiastic about Perspectives because my life and our church are devoted to spreading a passion for the supremacy of God in all things for the joy of all peoples through Jesus Christ. God means to be known and enjoyed by every tribe tongue and nation (Rev. 5:9). Perspectives has been essential in mobilizing hundreds of lay people in our church to be World Christians.
Rev. John Piper, Senior Pastor, Bethlehem Baptist Church, Minneapolis MN, Author
'Perspectives on the World Christian Movement' provides a stable platform for church members to receive college credit (or audit credits) for learning about missions history, strategy, and the task remaining. It's a great way to team up with near-neighbor congregations -- so it'll help you form partnerships -- and a super way to get in touch with the 'state of the art' in missions.
Doug Lucas, President of Team Expansion, Missions Committee Chairman at Fern Creek Christian Church, Louisville, KY
Perspectives provides Southern Baptists and other believers with the finest overview of God's world wide work available. I wholeheartedly recommend it for any committed disciple of Jesus.
Dr. Avery Willis, Former Senior V.P., Int'l Mission Board - Southern Baptist Convention
Perspectives has helped scores of people move from being spectators to participants in world evangelization. It's a vital link in our plans to be a world-impact church.
Dr. Paul Bubna - Late president of the Christian & Missionary Alliance
The Perspectives course is without question the single most valuable and life-changing series of studies I have ever taken. The blend of information, speakers, strategy, and vision are a must, both for those new to missions and those who have served for many years.
Sandra Winter, Director of Missions, Word of Grace, Mesa, Arizona
We are pleased to endorse this significant tool being used in the development of world Christians. We thank those that have developed this course and hope that many of our churches will use the Perspectives course to engage Covenant people in considering their part in the Great Commission.
Byron Amundsen - The Evangelical Covenant Church (Dept. of World Mission)
God used Perspectives to significantly impact my life. It is one of God's powerful tools in His Kingdom work. Attend and you will never be the same!
Rev. Larry Ressor - President & Founder, Global Focus
I watched this class transform our leaders. Not only did we have an explosion of ministry, but evangelism efforts of our people went into overdrive!
Rev. Dan Scott - Senior Pastor, The Valley Cathedral, Phoenix AZ
Perspectives is a dynamic experience that will forever change your view of what God is doing in the world. It smashed my stereotypes and reordered my priorities in world evangelization after three decades of ministry. You may never read your Bible or church history the same way again!
Rev. Matt Welde - International Evangelist, Presbyterian Church (USA), USCWM Minister-at-Large
I am pleased to endorse Perspectives! Its benefit to Nazarenes will be tremendous.
Dr. Tom Ness - Director, Mission Strategy USA/Canada, Evangelism & Church Growth Division, Church of the Nazarene
If I had my way, every believer in America would take this course!
