When you truly believe something, you will defend it and prove it to anyone willing to listen. Even when you are facing persecution from other people, you will still share if you genuinely believe. We watch that happen among our pastors regularly. In Myanmar, eighty-five percent of the population are Buddhists. Some of those people are merely following the religion that they grew up hearing from their parents. However, some are zealous and persecute our churches, and they fight against every other religion.

God Keeps Changing Lives in Extraordinary Ways
The enemy can throw every hurdle in the way of our pastors, but God keeps moving in the hearts of the people who hear the Good News. Governments placed restrictions that kept churches from gathering, but God continually opens new opportunities for pastors to minister to the people of their community.

Healing the Body, Soul, and Mind
The gospel ministry brings hope for eternal life through faith in Jesus, the transformation of communities by the influence of new believers being salt and light, and healing through medicine and counseling. There is a wholeness to how the Scriptures bring new life to everyone touched by church members’ obedience. They turn away from the darkness and walk in truth and light. They no longer seek the input of witchdoctors but instead trust the doctor at the Medical Center.
The gospel brings healing to the soul. Everyone has come short of the glory of God and rightly deserves eternal punishment and separation from God. But through the gracious mercy of the Lord, He provided the atonement for our sin. The pastors in our ministry boldly and courageously proclaim the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. The new believer’s eternal state is now secured, and they have the life-transforming power of the gospel changing their life every day until they reach their final day of life on this earth. But the ministry does not stop there. The diligent study of the Scriptures will entirely transform every new believer’s life. Additionally, The Medical Center provides treatment for physical ailments, so there are healthier futures for all the family members.

One of the most compelling facts about the state of present-day Christianity is that it is growing by leaps and bounds in the third world. A growing number of observers clearly recognize, for example, the fact of the explosion of the church in the poorest continent on earth: Africa. For example, Drs. Mark Shaw and Steve Morad of Africa International University, Nairobi, Kenya, concurred in a slightly dated documentary by the Africa Inland Mission (AIM), that the African Church might be the most dynamic church in the world today (Leadership Development: Africa Inland Mission CD, 2003).

The methodology of White Fields causes us to always look for the next village to plant a church. Our team on the ground analyzes how to move us toward the farthest fringe where people do not have a witness for the gospel. The local leadership finds the avenue to introduce the gospel to these needy people.
