    No Boundaries – Loren Cunningham – Chapter 1

    This special edition of the YWAM Teaching Podcast is a celebration of Loren Cunningham's final ministry focus with his final book,  No Boundaries Within God’s Will. Loren Cunningham, founder of Youth With A Mission (YWAM) went to be with Jesus on October 6, 2023 at the age of 88. Loren’s ministry focus in his last days was for translating the Bible and message of Jesus into every language on Earth. The new book is an account of Loren Cunningham's rugged path to all nations includes stories from secret gatherings of believers, desert border crossings and an emergency plane landing in the African jungle. No Boundaries tells Loren's vivid missions experiences to inspire your own all-or-nothing path. He fuses each story with biblical principles, inviting you to escape boxes of fear, doubt, or confusion. Clear examples and practical steps will help you find and follow God's vision for your life. The book was written by Loren Cunningham and Jeff Rogers, and the first chapter of the book has been released for free over at lorencunningham.com, where you can order your own copy of the book in print edition, or as an ebook. Since the first chapter has been released for free, I thought we could do a live read through of the first chapter for this YWAM Teaching Podcast. It's a different format from the usual teachings, but I'm hoping it motivates you to pick up and read the full new book. https://youtu.be/HvZQQx7OgPY

    The Cross – Loren Cunningham

    In this episode of the Youth With A Mission Teaching Podcast Loren Cunningham shares with us a teaching about The Cross. Loren Cunningham is the founder of Youth With A Mission (YWAM) and the co-founder of the University of the Nations (U of N). He is also a leader at the YWAM, U of N Campus in Hawaii, and a member of the YWAM International Eldership. In this teaching Loren invites us to stop at the cross and consider God’s love for us. He shares that though we don't have to understand all the technicalities of atonement to experience salvation, it is good to understand and appreciate it more fully. Loren describes how through the Cross, God meets the conditions of both justice and mercy. We see the horror of sin and the reformation of the sinner. We see the law upheld and the welfare of the community considered. In the cross we see the evidence of God's incredible love for us. More Than Conquerors What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? (Romans 8, 31-32) If you head over to the YWAM Teaching Podcast web-site, ywampodcast.net/teaching, you can subscribe to future teachings, find links to Loren’s books, and share this podcast with others.

Then the word of the LORD came to me saying, “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy and say to those shepherds, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD, “Woe, shepherds of Israel who have been feeding themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flock? “You eat the fat and clothe yourselves with the wool, you slaughter the fat sheep without feeding the flock. “Those who are sickly you have not strengthened, the diseased you have not healed, the broken you have not bound up, the scattered you have not brought back, nor have you sought for the lost; but with force and with severity you have dominated them. “They were scattered for lack of a shepherd, and they became food for every beast of the field and were scattered. “My flock wandered through all the mountains and on every high hill; My flock was scattered over all the surface of the earth, and there was no one to search or seek for them.”’ (Ezekiel 34:1-7) Loren Cunningham is the author of a number of books including: * Is That Really You God?

    How to Pray for Someone’s Salvation – Tom Bloomer

    Tom Bloomer shares with us about his conversion testimony and also about how we should pray for the salvation of people we care about on this episode of the YWAM Teaching Podcast at ywampodcast.net/teaching. Tom Bloomer studied archaeology at the University of Illinois (B.A. 1972), and worked as a house painter, French translator, and ladies' shoe salesman before marrying Cynthia. In 1983 they responded to a call from Loren Cunningham and Howard Malmstadt to help develop the University of the Nations (UofN). A Master's degree in Intercultural Studies from Wheaton in 1987 and years of experience in cross-cultural education proved invaluable as Tom helped coordinate, refine, and improve the different courses developing through the UofN. Tom completed a Ph.D. in Education Science at Trinity International University in 1999. Tom Bloomer has served as the International Provost of the University of the Nations since 2001. Tom lives at one of the UofN’s mini-campuses in French-speaking Switzerland, and is committed to teaching and mentoring students and staff. When I was in Switzerland I had the privilege of hearing Tom Bloomer speak on my communications school and he also guided our school on a tour of Geneva. Tom is an inspiring teacher, with an exciting testimony and some great stories of God's Faithfulness. Lots of us pray for our loved ones, often without success. Often we pray wrong without thinking seriously about it. Tom Bloomer shares with us in this podcast about some Biblical strategies of effective prayer ... https://youtu.be/LH5O3jgR0-0 You can find lots more teaching from Youth With A Mission staff and leaders on our web-site, ywampodcast.net/teaching.
