I recently spoke at the Empowered Conference hosted by the Southern Baptist Convention of Virginia. It was a wonderful time with the brothers and sisters from around the state. I was encouraged to hear what the Spirit is doing through their Kingdom labors. My assignment: share from my book Strangers Next Door.
The United States receives more international migrants than any other country. The United States is also home to the third largest number of unreached people groups in the world.
Here was my message to those present or watching via livestream.
You may download a copy of my presentation.
It was also an honor to hear from Jeff Iorg, President of Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary, and Ben Gutierrez, Vice Provost of Liberty University. Check out their messages and our panel discussion.

I speak for my wife and myself. Your message may be the one we’ve been looking for. I’ve been serving through VOM a while, now I believe Christians here should be preparing for underground work. No-one seems to understand this. The Lord has brought to my attention the flow of people, even before I discovered your message. I am already studying Spanish. If some Latin “refugee” we’re praying to find someone like me, how could they know that I’m available? I’m not gifted in “networking/politics”, yet I’m sure God has immigrants in our future.
Thanks for any advice……eph 2:10
Thanks, Marvin, for sharing. I would suggest making yourself known to various ministries and churches in your area. That way if they encounter someone, they may be able to point that person to you. It may also be helpful to contact World Relief as well.
