It’s become an all-too-familiar scenario. I’m out walking my dog, and another neighbor, doing the same thing, is coming head-on in my direction. Like a game of chicken, there is a showdown on who will leave the sidewalk for the street first. Careful to keep our distance, I decide to leave the smooth sidewalk for rougher terrain at just the right time, before the possibility that a minuscule virus could invade either of our spaces.
In this new reality that the whole world finds itself in, where we can no
longer gather in person, where we’ve all had a crash course in Zoom, and where moms and da ..read more

Muslims are coming to Christ in unprecedented numbers and we rejoice at what God is doing in Muslim nations!

For the past several years, Global Initiative has been privileged to partner with missionary Kurt Plagenhoef and the Evangelical Theological College in Tirania, Albania. Fred and Annette Farro ..read more
