Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Spirit of Martyrdom strives to equip Christians to serve as witnesses around the world by training believers in Christ in effective practices of discipleship and evangelism. Spirit of Martyrdom assists persecuted brothers and sisters globally, the living martyrs with tools of ministry to strengthen their witness of Christ. This includes distribution of literature, media, funds, ministry leadership tools, networking with like minded ministries, field visitation and assessment.
We have a vision of having over 100,000 house churches by 2030.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
We serve the church, the "living martyrs." We desire to embolden Christians to overcome fear with faith, hope and love. We supply Christian materials, training and funds to equip Christians living in hostile areas of the world. In turn, we share stories of courageous faith in the USA.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
We regularly build relationships, lead speaking engagements and send out updates to our faithful partners who support the ministry both financially and through their prayers domestically and internationally.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
We have accomplished building a healthy spirit of networking, flexible, spiritually mature board members, volunteers and staff. We have solid overseas contacts, strategic ministry partners, low overhead ministry expenses and lots of faith.
Some of our areas of needed growth are a small staff to meet growing needs, communication challenges because of security issues of restricted nations and need for greater technology.
