The Rise and Fall of the Student Volunteer Movement
by Justin Long (momentum-mag.org)
"In this article, we’ll look at the reasons both for the rise of
the SVM and for its downfall. We’ll try to identify some key lessons that
might be applied to modern mobilization efforts. But we’ll begin not with
the birth of the movement, but rather with the birth of the birth of the movement:
deep in the beginnings of America itself."

STRATEGIC MINISTRY

June 12, 2008
StoryRunners
"Our two-year
Bible storying projects have proven to be our most effective way of reaching
oral learners. In just two years, a team of two missionaries can lay a foundation
for rapid church planting through the use of Bible stories that are told,
learned, discussed and retold. This gives oral learners access to God’s Word
in a storytelling process easily reproducible by oral learners. It’s a quick,
effective process leading to evangelism, church planting, discipleship, leadership
training, literacy, a written Bible translation and the JESUS film."

REFUGEES

June 10, 2008
World Refugee Sunday 2008 - June 22
(refugeehighway.net)
"More than 33 million people have no place to call home. They have
lost family members, friends, and possessions. Often forgotten — or used
as political pawns — these refugees face hardship, disease, and confusion
on every side. Please pray for the many suffering refugees worldwide, including
those in flight, those waiting in refugee camps, and those resettling in new
countries. Pray that the global church would provide hospitality and welcome
to all refugees in need.
" (From Refugee Highway Sunday bulletin

Advice to Missionaries (and All of Us)
by
John Piper (desiringgod.org)
"As I was working on the fifth volume of The Swans are Not Silent
series about the lives of William Tyndale, Adoniram Judson, and John G. Paton,
I found a letter written by Judson from Burma on June 25, 1832 with sobering
counsel to missionaries. Actually, these are hard and good words for all of
us."
