A Matter of the Heart
Maria sat in the boardroom of one of the biggest banks in Estonia, wishing she could tell the CEO what he really needed to hear. She looked at the luxurious conference table, the plush chairs, the man’s expensive suit, and thought, Sir, your finances are in order, but let me tell you what is not in order – your heart. You really need Jesus! ... more

Seven Steps to Financial Freedom

Pray for Europe
A Message From Javier
Jesus wants us to pray. One way we do this, as a global movement, is to set aside two worldwide Days of Prayer—one on the first Tuesday of October each year, and the second on the fourth Tuesday of April. Staff members in every one of the 151 countries in which we work set these days aside to pray for the ministry.
I’d like to propose an additional emphasis here in Europe. One idea I had would be to stop every day at 15:00 to pray briefly for our continent. Why this hour? Because tradition says that this is the time at which Jesus actually died, and it reminds us of Him.
I will be praying each day at this time – would you join me?
