Our vision
To develop leaders in Christ's service anywhere in the world through foundational discipleship tools and sound Biblical teaching
With our years of experience in evangelism, discipleship, teaching and training, we plan to spend significant periods of time (1 to 3 months—or more!) with the many contacts we have made across the globe. We offer discipleship training both to enhance the ministry of those pastors, cross-cultural laborers and students we have met, and to build into the lives of those they are serving. We have opportunities to serve Christian schools and invitations to provide staff- and shepherd-development training. We also have a burden to encourage the Church in the US and abroad to get more "Great Commissional" in life and purpose. We want to serve wherever there is both need and hunger—and an open door!
Our New Project
New Wineskins Training and Travel
Our new project is a discipleship training program that has two aspects: training and ministry trips to multiple countries. The name, New Wineskins, comes from Jesus' parable, a response to the Pharisees who questioned Jesus and His disciples' behavior (Luke 5:33-39). They didn't recognize Jesus and couldn't receive His teachings. We want to see Him in all His glory, and we want to be the kind of people who can receive all He teaches. As we are helped by Him to understand Him better, we want to help others also grow more in His likeness and ways—that's the training part of this project. The travel begins in coming to Bosnia to learn with us, but goes beyond that as we explore places where we can put our learning into practice and strengthen the faith of others by walking in the archaeological remains of the Bible record.
If you'd like to learn more and see the opportunities we offer, visit New Wineskins Travel and Training. If you'd like to support students who can't cover their expenses, we invite you to give to the "New Wineskins Scholoarship Fund." Select it under "Project" on our donation page or write "RM4215 - Scholarship" on a note with your check.
A little about us
For more than 30 years, we have served the Lord in east Asia, the Dominican Republic and eastern Iowa. Over the years, our ministry has focused on evangelism, establishing new believers, and discipling them as leaders in ministry. It has expanded to preaching and pastoring. We have always been about "reaping and training reapers." We desire to serve a broader base, offering further training to friends and contacts in all parts of the world, including Europe, East Asia, South Asia, Africa and the Caribbean.
