Ep 61: Radio Brings Gospel Light into Darkness
Much of Sub Saharan Africa has been reached with the gospel, but there are pockets that still lack gospel presence. We’re going to take you to two of those places in this episode. Reach Beyond radio planter Alex Walker gives us eyewitness reports of what God is doing at new radio stations in Madagascar and Malawi. You’ll hear the stories of radically transformed lives. Alex was part of the team that built these two stations, one as recently as November. The Lord has pulled together several churches and ministries in each of the communities to make the stations possible. After several years of prayer, effort and waiting, both of these stations went on the air and saw results right away. God is at work and you’ll hear how.

Ep 41: 10 Ways to Pray for Missionaries
As we approach our National Day of Prayer (THU, May 4), today’s podcast guest also reminds us to pray for missionaries around the world. Dr. Jessie Ritchie, a missionary kid and past missionary herself, shares 10 practical ways we can lift up missionaries in prayer. Most of us haven’t lived in another country, another culture.

Today’s discussion opens that window for us with candid conversation from Dr. Ritchie and Steve Harling, as they both share experiences and difficulties from years as missionaries. In addition to the daily challenges missionaries face, there are also pressures to provide updates, concerns for the health and well being of their families, and the lack of opportunity for fellowship. The stark reality is that it’s often tough for missionaries just to hold on. This episode is a good reminder for all who support missionaries that prayer is such a critical part of supporting them. The insights shared by Dr. Ritchie give us guidelines for praying well. You’ll find the free download of 10 ways to pray for your missionaries to be a great resource to equip you to pray for your missionaries! So listen and enjoy this episode now!
