”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 […]
Welcome Our Newest Board Members
October 2019
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 […]
REAL ANSWERS TO LIFE
July 2019
One of the interesting aspects of this ministry is we get a preview of what the world is really struggling with before it becomes more widely known and accepted. Historically, we have seen this happen with dramatic increases in the number of conversations on gay marriage, loneliness, pornography and a host of other issues before […]
Offering Biblical Truth Even After the Conversation is Over
July 2019
Have you ever had a conversation with someone and believed you knew exactly what they needed but there was little chance they heard your advice and were going to follow through? In those times, we often feel like if only we could hand them something to read, or use later, they might actually follow through […]
Former Resident Update: Joy Kiruba Cherian
July 2019
We recently shared how the Resident Leadership Program turned five years old this year and that we have seen over 100 different seminarians from ten different countries participate in this one-year internship program. We have witnessed how the experience gained through a large volume of conversations on a wide variety of topics has helped better […]
The Next Generation of Church Leaders
May 2019
The Resident Leadership Program turned five years old last quarter. What started as a means of increasing the ministry response capacity has grown into one of the most unique training opportunities for future church leaders. We have seen over 100 different seminarians from ten different countries participate in this one-year internship program. They have collectively […]
Taking Sin out of the Shadows
May 2019
Sometimes we speak with believers lost in their own sin. They often know it and feel helpless to change. It is not about convincing them their actions are wrong or that they need Jesus. They are filled with guilt and shame and often just need to be reminded of the power of God’s Word and […]
The Theology of Technology
May 2019
The ministry has always been committed to sharing the Gospel and offering people an opportunity to respond. How that happens has changed quite a bit in the two plus decades of history of Need Him Global. The media component has gone from Christian radio to secular radio and television to now an almost unlimited number […]
No Telling What Comes Next
January 2019
As we were looking into what changes might affect the ministry in the coming years, we saw a story how the iPhone was introduced 12 years ago. Although mobile phones were growing in popularity at that time, they were still primarily a device for making phone calls. The idea that our phone would become something […]
Are you ready to help?
January 2019
The first time we do something usually makes us nervous. Can you remember the first time you had to speak in public? How about the first time you shared your testimony with someone or walked a friend through the Gospel? Jesus was very clear. He not only commanded us to go make disciples, but He […]
Looking Back Reveals God’s Grace
January 2019
When we gather as a staff each week, we start by looking back to be reminded of what God has done and count our blessings before we look forward and focus on where He is taking us next. We thought that would be an appropriate perspective to take with this Winter newsletter. God has blessed […]
Resident Profile: Kelsey Hinely
October 2018
Kelsey attends Southwestern Baptist Seminary in Ft Worth and became a Resident with us in 2017. We wanted you to hear a little about her story and how she is helping bring the Gospel to difficult places around the world. Tell us about your childhood, education and when you met Jesus I grew up in […]
Got Questions
October 2018
Kingdom partnerships often work in unexpected ways. This should not surprise us because we know God is operating from a perfect eternal perspective and often brings blessings through unanticipated means. One of the many awesome things about serving a ministry is that we get to see this and be reminded frequently. One of these examples […]
Meeting People Where They Are
October 2018
Many years ago, Need Him Global was recognized for going somewhere no one thought God would show up. That campaign brought the Gospel to MTV. Much has changed since then. How people view television and movies is completely different. Technology now allows us to watch on demand, skip commercials and stream content to other devices. […]
The Patterson Center for Global Theological Innovation
July 2018
One of the most significant changes in the ministry over the last five years has been the introduction of a formal internship program through the Resident Leadership Program (RLP). This has provided a more predictable and expanded response capability while offering practical evangelism training and experience to the next generation of church leaders. We have […]
SociallyU
July 2018
If we look back a decade ago, Need Him Global was Need Him Ministries and almost exclusively focused on answering telephone calls from Christian radio. Media was changing as was the opportunity to use different technologies like online chat and text messaging to have conversations with people about Jesus Christ. The ministry had started using […]
DX Media Direct
July 2018
Need Him Global has been blessed for over two decades to work with many partners that have helped us share the Gospel through different media. These have included Christian radio, newspapers, billboards, television and many others. Almost a decade ago, a significant transformation started to take place. Traditional advertising was being impacted by new forms […]
