Selections from this issue:
- “Reviving a Post-Christian Land” – Europe, once synonymous with Christian culture, has departed
significantly from its spiritual heritage. Comprising mostly post-Christian nations, the continent is in great need of revival, and an army of Christ-followers are actively working to meet that need, ministering in the land of the Reformation in order to awaken its people to the truth of the Gospel. - “Kindling the Flames of a New Reformation” – Germany’s post-Reformation history is plagued by theological liberalism, and few Germans today hold to a high view of Scripture. But through such
institutions as Southwestern Seminary and Bibelseminar Bonn, students are being equipped to preach and teach God’s inerrant Word, and the fruit of their ministries is on the verge of sparking a new reformation in Germany. - “Overcoming Spiritual Apathy: Equipping Everyday Followers of Christ to Reach the Lost in Sweden” – Present-day Sweden is characterized by postmodernism, individualistic philosophies, and a resistance to organized religion. Missionary David Moench labors in this context, and God graciously grants him opportunities to discuss faith as a personal relationship rather than an institutionalized church.
