Heaven's Family Stories

Books for Discipleship Fund

Based on questions he received from pastors during years of conducting pastors' conferences around the world, David wrote The Disciple-Making Minister with Christian leaders in mind who have had little opportunity to receive Bible training. Sadly, many Christian leaders in poor countries are being seduced by unbalanced and misleading television preachers who broadcast internationally.

The Disciple-Making Minister helps Christian leaders to reclaim their biblical calling to make disciples who obey all of Jesus' commandments. Its 500 pages cover many topics relevant to Christian ministry.

Tattooed Ladies [David’s 2nd Photo Blog from Myanmar]

Our first stop here in southern Chin State is the town of Kamplet, and waiting for us upon our arrival were two indigenous missionaries whom Heaven's Family has supported for a number of years. One of them is Stephen Paing Bu, who was born in a remote village in this region. He is working in a total of 30 villages, most of which are (or were) predominantly Buddhist or animist. Stephen is truly reaching the unreached.
