Catching up with one of our former Residents
January 2021
Over four years ago, we had the pleasure of having a young man named Dani Murphy from Northern Ireland join our Resident Leadership Program. He was in seminary at DTS and it quickly become clear he had a gift for connecting with young people. We recently caught up and wanted to share some of his […]
New Volunteer Initiatives
January 2021
The topic and tenor of conversations the ministry has each day have changed over the years. Topics like pornography, self-harm, sexual identity and suicide that were once infrequent and rarely discussed are now common. These are issues that people do not talk about easily but the anonymous nature of online conversation actually encourages. This means […]
Beautiful Feet
January 2021
As Chairman of the Board of Need Him Global, I’ve reflected on what the Lord has done over the last 25 years of the ministry and, in doing so, two realities become abundantly clear: 1) Our Heavenly Father is still in the business of pursuing the lost and writing Prodigal son stories and 2) This […]
The Great Commission – We don’t do this alone
October 2020
The ministry has been blessed with a significant increase in the number of new volunteers over the past two quarters. This article reminds us that we are each called and have the ability to participate. At the end of Jesus time on earth, he gave the Great Commission. And Jesus came and said to them, […]
Reviving Evangelism
October 2020
The ministry has been on the front lines of evangelism for over two decades and we are blessed to see more people coming to us for conversation. However, the challenges to sharing Jesus are growing and we have to adapt to navigate this new landscape. This article reminds us of what is changing and how […]
Opportunity in the Midst of Adversity
October 2020
The ministry has had a significant increase in conversations for the past two quarters. This article outlines one of the many reasons why this has happened. Something interesting has happened over the past six months. As I have been walking or running through my neighborhood each day, more and more people are making eye contact. […]
New Kingdom Partnership
July 2020
Many people and organizations that are focused on sharing the Gospel around the world have been significantly impacted by the lockdown and are unable to operate as they normally would before the world changed. Fortunately, Need Him Global not only continued to operate but saw significantly more opportunities to share Jesus Christ. As we have […]
More New Volunteers!
July 2020
We have been sharing how our volunteer base has been growing dramatically this year. We have now seen more new volunteer applications this year than the total number we received for all of the previous two years combined. One such example of this is through our recent connection with the Evangelism team of the Kentucky […]
Reaching The World
July 2020
As we shared in the last newsletter, the worldwide pandemic produced a significant increase in the volume of all conversation types we offer. As a ministry, we watched this closely with the goal of spending wisely to reach more people while also not trying to use precious funds to reach those other ministries were pursuing. […]
Meeting a distant and lonely world
April 2020
The Response Team has spent the past few months considering some growing trends in the world and in how we talk with people online. For instance, as our percentage of international conversations has increased, the need to appreciate cultural differences becomes even more critical. The result has seen us add new resources for volunteers to […]
Dramatic growth in volunteer base
April 2020
Need Him Global’s response model has been built upon having faithful volunteers that desire to meet all people and share the Gospel. We have been fortunate over the years to have many that fill that description. We also keep looking for new and creative ways to find even more. Recently we have seen our international […]
Sharing hope in uncertain times
April 2020
Using media to share the Gospel and offer an electronic means to respond has never been more relevant in our lifetime. We have seen God use the ministry in many different ways over the past two plus decades. However, it is even easier to see Him at work right now. The massive social changes brought […]
How can we pray for your family?
January 2020
At any given time, families can be going through really challenging issues that threaten to pull them apart. If you are lucky enough to not be there right now, then the holiday season may have at least reminded you of other ways families struggle to get along. Sometimes the issues are not particularly life changing. […]
Where would you go for help?
January 2020
We live in a world full of pain. Our struggles come in many shapes and when one problem goes away there often is another coming. As a ministry, we feel the weight of how broken the world is by the sheer number, depth and variety of issues that we receive. As believers, we understand that […]
Leveraging partnerships for kingdom growth
January 2020
In a world overcrowded by competing forms of information and media, it can be difficult to reach the right audience with your message. We have more information than we need or would have ever imagined on our phones. We also have more entertainment options on various platforms than we could ever consume. Additionally, we now […]
”Who is John and is 316 the Page Number?”
October 2019
This was the response I received the first time I tried to share John 3:16 with a seeker. I wish I could say it was a unique experience but it is actually quite common. The encouraging news according to a Barna Research Group is that we live in a country where people own and revere […]
Are You a Gateway or Roadblock to Christ?
October 2019
I recently was revisiting memories of conversations my grandparents and older relatives would have around the family table. They would lament how the world was “falling apart”. There were predictions of doom and gloom for future generations with no real hope for change. Being part of this ministry, we can feel that pressure as we […]

Serving on a non-profit board is not always easy. Need Him Global asks a lot from our board members so we go through an extensive recruiting process to make sure everyone understands what is involved and expected. For instance, the board meets monthly to review the operational and financial performance of the ministry along with […]
