What touched residents’ hearts was that people they didn’t even know came to their city to alleviate suffering.
But, why would individuals from an internationally-broadcast preaching and teaching program give away water? Personal ministries.įrom its humble beginnings, Breath of Life has been called to go beyond the walls of the Church, and into the boundless community to minister as Jesus did: to care for people’s needs, win their confidence, and then bid them to follow Him. One initiative that truly represented this was Breath of Life’s trip to Flint, Michigan, to distribute more than 20,000 water bottles to residents who were plagued by Flint’s water contamination crisis. Volunteers - working long hours in Bible study and friendship evangelism, using Breath of Life Bible study guides, CDs, DVDs, and other resources - have raised up Breath of Life churches in Stamford, Connecticut San Antonio, Texas and Las Vegas, Nevada.Īt our live evangelistic meetings, we often ask, “How did you hear about this event?” Many tell us it was a friend who invited them. It takes many volunteers who are committed to personal ministries to plant a church, but this is exactly what has happened in three communities during the last five years. While Breath of Life continues to expand its global reach through social media, the Internet, smartphones, radio, and television, it’s the personal, one-to-one work that brings the most satisfaction and direct results for the kingdom of God.
In partnership with our broadcast home church, the Oakwood University Church in Huntsville, Alabama, Breath of Life is feeding the homeless, distributing clothing, and visiting the incarcerated. Public evangelism has always been a vital part of Breath of Life’s ministry, and as the most hands-on aspect of our outreach, remains the one most grounded in personal ministries.īecause we recognize that ministry does not end at the pulpit or on a television screen, Breath of Life is reaching out to those who need physical healing, spiritual healing, and hope. And, though most of this is done through the production and distribution of Christ-centered television, radio, satellite, and online programs, more is done through the heart and hands of personal ministries than many may know. Breath of Life Ministries is dedicated to sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the context of the Three Angels’ Messages of Revelation 14 from a contemporary, urban perspective.
