What God is Saying

"Look at the nations and watch—and be utterly amazed. For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told." Habakuk 1:5

Are We Jonahs? God's Missionary Heart from the Beginning

Hello, friends, and welcome back to Nations 4 Jesus. Today I want to ask you a question that might make some of us uncomfortable: Are we Jonahs?

I think many of us have heard the story of Jonah and the whale. We probably learned it in Sunday school. Maybe we've taught it to our own kids, focusing on the drama of being swallowed by a fish. But friends, there's so much more to Jonah's story than a miraculous fish tale. And if we're honest, his story hits uncomfortably close to home.

[The big question - where did missions begin?]

Let me ask you: Did the idea of missional outreach—of sharing the message of who God is and His love for mankind—begin with the Great Commission? Is that the first time God tells His people to share His message with the surrounding nations?

The answer is no. In fact, mission outreach can be seen throughout the entire Bible, beginning with Abraham. God's missionary heart didn't start with Jesus on the mountain in Galilee. It's been His heart from the very beginning!

[Abraham and Israel - blessed to be a blessing]

Let's go back to Genesis 12. God didn't choose Abraham just because He liked him. God chose Abraham and made him this incredible promise: "All peoples on earth will be blessed through you" (Genesis 12:3). From the very beginning, God's plan was global. His heart was for the nations.

Why was Israel chosen? Was it because they were better or more holy than other nations? Friends, it only takes reading the Bible a bit to see that's not true! Israel sinned just like the other nations did. God singled them out to show Himself through them. Theologian Johannes Verkuyl writes that "Israel was a minority called to serve the majority."

They weren't blessed just to be blessed. They were blessed to be a blessing! They were set apart to call all nations to God, to reflect His glory. This idea of being blessed to be a blessing is what we as Christians are also called to do.

[The missionary theme throughout Scripture]

You can see this missionary theme woven throughout Scripture. Psalm 67:1-2 says, "May God be gracious to us and bless us—so that your ways may be known on earth, your salvation among all nations." In Revelation 5:9-10, we see people from "every tribe and language and people and nation" worshiping before God's throne. God's heart for the nations runs from Genesis to Revelation!

Throughout the Old Testament, God drew people from other nations to Himself. Remember Rahab the Canaanite? Ruth the Moabite? The city of Nineveh? God was always working to draw the nations to Himself!

[Jonah's story - a lesson in missionary education]

Which brings us to Jonah. Verkuyl writes that "Jonah is a lesson in educating a person to be a missionary. It reveals the need for a radical conversion of one's natural tendencies and a complete restructuring of his life to make it serviceable for mission."

Here's what happened: God told Jonah to go to Nineveh and preach repentance. But Jonah didn't want to. Why? Because he didn't think the Ninevites deserved it. Nineveh was the capital of Assyria, and the Assyrians had persecuted the Jews horribly. Jonah didn't just fear them—he hated them. They didn't deserve salvation in his eyes.

So Jonah ran in the opposite direction! But friends, you can't run from God's missionary mandate on your life. God pursued him relentlessly—through a storm, through being thrown overboard, through three days in a great fish—until Jonah finally obeyed.

[God's relentless pursuit and surprising results]

And when Jonah finally, reluctantly preached to Nineveh, something amazing happened. The people turned to God with all their hearts and repented! The entire city—from the king down—put on sackcloth, fasted, and cried out to God. And God, in His mercy, relented from judgment.

Verkuyl notes something fascinating: "What Israel continually refused to do, these heathen Gentiles did do. The cruel king of Nineveh stands as anti-type to the disobedient kings of Judah." The people who supposedly didn't deserve God's mercy responded better than God's chosen people often did!

This should humble us. God's call and desire is that all nations and all people groups to turn to Him!

[The Great Commission - continuing the mission]

Fast forward to the New Testament. When Jesus gave the Great Commission, He was continuing this same mission. Like the Hebrews before them, believers were blessed to be a blessing to all nations. They were directed to go into all the world and preach the good news to everyone.

So here we are two thousand years later, and the mission isn't finished. According to Joshua Project, there are still over 7,000 unreached people groups representing about 3.4 billion people who have never heard the Gospel even once. Romans 10:14 asks, "How can they hear without someone preaching to them?" People are still waiting. The question is: Will we go? Or will we be like Jonah?

[The uncomfortable question - are we Jonahs?]

So let me ask you again: Are we Jonahs? Are we sitting in our comfortable houses, enjoying the blessings of knowing Christ, but refusing the responsibility that comes with that blessing? Verkuyl writes something convicting: "Jonah is father to all those Christians who desire the benefits and blessings of election but refuse its responsibility."

How many of us love being blessed by God—love His presence, His provision, His peace—but don't want the responsibility of taking that blessing to others?

[The reasons we're like Jonah]

Let's be honest about why we're sometimes like Jonah. Maybe we think certain people don't deserve God's mercy. Or maybe we're just too comfortable. Going to the nations—or even going across the street to share with our neighbor—would disrupt our comfort. Or maybe we think we're not qualified. Friends, God doesn't need your qualifications. He needs your availability and your obedience!

[Jonah's reluctant obedience]

Here's what I find convicting: Even when Jonah finally obeyed, he obeyed reluctantly. He went to Nineveh, but he didn't want to. And when they repented, he was angry! He sat outside the city pouting, waiting for God to come around to his way of thinking.

There's a powerful poem by Thomas Carlisle that ends with these lines:

"And Jonah stalked to his shaded seat and waited for God to come around to his way of thinking. And God is still waiting for a host of Jonahs in their comfortable houses to come around to His way of thinking."

God is still waiting. He's waiting for us to come around to His way of thinking—to see the nations the way He sees them, to care about the unreached the way He cares about them.

[Five ways to stop being Jonah]

So how do we stop being Jonah? Let me give you five practical steps. First, pray for the unreached. Get Operation World or the Joshua Project app and start praying regularly for an unreached people group. Second, support missionaries financially. Put your money where God's heart is. Third, go on a mission trip if possible—overseas or local, serving immigrants or refugees in your city.

Fourth, raise mission-minded children. Read them missionary biographies. Pray with them for the nations. And fifth, ask God where He's calling you specifically. Maybe not to another country, but to share with your neighbor, support missionaries, host international students, or befriend refugees. Ask Him, and then obey!

[The choice is ours]

We have a choice. Will we obey or disobey? And will we obey joyfully or reluctantly? While God never forces us, He tenderly asks us to put our whole heart into the work of mission. If God could use reluctant, angry Jonah, He can use you and me! The question is: Will we let Him?

Let me pray: 

Thank you for joining me today, friends. Let's stop being Jonahs. Let's align our hearts with God's missionary heart. Let's be the blessing to the nations that we were always meant to be.

Until next time, keep your eyes on the nations and share the blessing of Jesus Christ with a world that's desperate to know Him.

Episode Description: Jonah ran from Nineveh because he thought they didn't deserve mercy. When they repented, he was angry, waiting in his comfortable seat for God to come around to his way of thinking. Today, with 3.4 billion unreached people, God is still waiting for comfortable Christians to come around to His way of thinking. Are we Jonahs, hoarding blessings while refusing responsibility? Five ways to align your heart with God's missionary heart.

Pastors, Your People Are Perishing: The Crisis of Biblical Illiteracy in the Church

Hello, friends, and welcome back to Nations 4 Jesus. Today I need to talk about something that's been on my heart for a long time.

It's about the state of teaching in many American churches today. I'm going to be honest with you: Jeff and I have left a few churches because of what I'm about to describe. This isn't about being critical or judgmental. It's about being heartbroken over what's happening to God's people when they're not being fed the Word of God.

[The original letter ]

About 15 years ago, a friend of ours named John Rackliffe wrote an open letter to pastors. His words struck a chord with us then, and they're even more relevant today. He began with this passage from Hosea 4:6: "My people perish from a lack of knowledge."

This scripture has always been powerful, but it speaks volumes in our current moment. When John wrote his letter in 2010, he was concerned about what he was seeing in Charleston-area churches. But here's what we need to understand: The problem has only gotten worse in the 15 years since.

[The state of biblical literacy today - updated statistics]

Let me share some sobering statistics with you. According to a 2024 study by the American Bible Society, only 11% of Americans are considered "Scripture engaged"—meaning they read the Bible regularly and allow it to transform their lives. That's down from 14% just five years ago. Among Christians specifically, less than 20% read their Bible daily.

Barna Research reported in 2023 that 37% of practicing Christians—people who attend church at least monthly—cannot name all four Gospels. Nearly half cannot identify more than two or three of Jesus's disciples. And when asked basic questions about core Christian doctrines, the majority of churchgoers gave answers that contradicted biblical teaching.

Friends, how did we get here? How did we reach a point where people who regularly attend church don't know the basic content of Scripture? I believe a significant part of the answer lies in what's happening—or not happening—in our pulpits every Sunday.

[John Rackliffe's challenge - the heart of the message]

Let me read you what John wrote to pastors 15 years ago, because it's still desperately needed today:

"Pastors, if you are reading this, the people want to know what God has to say about our world! Please tell them. If you don't know, read God's word and find out! Your flock is perishing from a lack of knowledge. Popular preachers can't help you. Best-selling books are inadequate. Slick programs are not the answer. The Bible is our only answer book. Please tell your people."

When John wrote that in 2010, he was concerned about topical preaching, guest speakers talking about self-help issues, and teaching from popular authors instead of Scripture. But today? The situation has deteriorated even further.

[The problem today - entertainment over substance]

Now we have churches where the Bible is barely mentioned at all. We have services that are more like TED Talks than worship gatherings. We have pastors who are more concerned with not offending anyone than with declaring the whole counsel of God. We have worship experiences designed to entertain rather than to encounter the living God. We even have so-called churches showcasing drag queens and leaders from Planned Parenthood. 

A 2023 study by Lifeway Research found that only 52% of Protestant pastors strongly agree that the Bible is the sole authority for their faith and practice. Think about that! Nearly half of pastors don't fully embrace biblical authority. Is it any wonder that their congregations are biblically illiterate?

And here's something that really concerns me: According to Pew Research, 63% of young adults who grew up in evangelical churches and left the faith say they never really understood what Christianity taught. They sat in church for years, but no one actually taught them the Bible systematically. They got stories and inspirational talks and feel-good messages, but they never learned the grand narrative of Scripture or the foundational doctrines of the faith.

[Why this matters - the times we live in]

Friends, John wrote back in 2010 that "the times we live in are difficult. Terrorism, frequent natural disasters, the American dream disappearing before our eyes, and reports of wars all over the globe are in our faces daily. People want to know why these things are happening and they want to hear it from God."

Well, if that was true in 2010, how much more is it true today? We're living in times of unprecedented confusion, division, anxiety, and fear. We have entire generations drowning in mental health crises. We have families falling apart. We have a culture that's hostile to biblical Christianity. We have believers who are being tossed back and forth by every wind of doctrine because they don't know what Scripture actually says.

And entertainment-driven, topically-focused, feel-good church services are not equipping God's people to stand firm in these times. Second Timothy 4:3-4 warns us: "For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths."

[What people need - biblical teaching]

Here's what John asked 15 years ago, and it's still the right question: "Will my next place of worship reveal a deep knowledge of who God really is? How can I tell if the church I attend is revealing to me who God is?"

His answer was simple: "Is your pastor regularly teaching from the Bible? If he is not, if he is choosing topics, teaching from popular authors or theologians' writings, or bringing in guests to talk about self-help issues, it may be time to look elsewhere."

Friends, people need to know who God is! Not who Oprah thinks He is. Not what the latest Christian bestseller says about Him. Not what makes us feel good about ourselves. They need to know who God has revealed Himself to be in His Word. They need systematic, verse-by-verse, book-by-book teaching that takes them through all of Scripture—not just the comfortable parts.

[The personal cost - why this matters to us]

Let me tell you friends, leaving a church is hard. It's painful. You have relationships there. You have history there. Your kids have friends there. But you need to ask yourselves: Are your children learning who God is? Are they being grounded in Scripture? Are they being equipped to stand firm in their faith?

Often times the answer is no. You may be getting a lot of entertainment, some great programs and lots of feel-good messages about living your best life. But you aren’t getting consistent, deep, systematic teaching from God's Word. And friends, you shouldn’t stay in a church that isn’t feeding your family the Word of God.

[What to look for - practical guidance]

So what should you look for in a church? Let me give you some practical guidance. First, does the pastor preach through books of the Bible systematically? Not just his favorite verses or topics, but actually working through entire books, verse by verse, chapter by chapter? This ensures that the whole counsel of God is taught, not just the pastor's pet themes.

Second, is the Bible the authority, or is the pastor using it to support points he's already decided to make? There's a big difference between expository preaching—where the text determines what's taught—and topical preaching where Scripture is just sprinkled in for support. Third, does the teaching challenge you, convict you, and call you to obedience? Or does it just make you feel good and send you home unchanged?

Fourth, are doctrinal truths being clearly explained? Do you understand more about God's character, His redemptive plan, His purposes in the world after attending this church? Can you look at what is happening in the world and understand it better through the context of Scripture. And fifth, is there an expectation that you'll read and study Scripture for yourself during the week? Or is Sunday morning the only time God's Word is opened?

[Biblical foundation - God's call to teach His Word]

Nehemiah 8 gives us a beautiful picture of what biblical teaching should look like. Verses 8-9 say: "They read from the Book of the Law of God, making it clear and giving the meaning so that the people understood what was being read. Then Nehemiah the governor, Ezra the priest and teacher of the Law, and the Levites who were instructing the people said to them all, 'This day is holy to the LORD your God.'"

Notice what happened: They read from God's Word. They made it clear. They gave the meaning. The people understood. And the result? Conviction, repentance, worship, and transformation. That's what happens when God's Word is faithfully taught!

[The call to action - for everyone]

So friends, here's what I want to challenge you with today. If you're in a church where you're not being fed the Word of God, it's time to have a conversation. Make an appointment with your pastor. Ask him, respectfully and humbly, why expository teaching from Scripture isn't happening. Tell him you're hungry for God's Word. Tell him your family needs to be grounded in biblical truth.

And if things don't change? It may be time to find a church that will feed you. I know that's hard to hear. I know it's disruptive. But friends, spiritual malnutrition has eternal consequences. Your children are watching and learning what you prioritize. If you stay in a church that doesn't take Scripture seriously, you're teaching them that God's Word isn't really that important.

[Five characteristics of a Bible-teaching church]

Let me leave you with five characteristics to look for in a Bible-teaching church. First, Scripture is opened every single week, and substantial portions are read and explained. Second, the teaching flows from the text—the passage determines what's taught. Third, the pastor looks at the world and helps you understand what is going on through the lens of Scripture. 

Fourth, the whole Bible is taught over time—Old Testament and New Testament, easy passages and difficult ones. And fifth, there's an expectation and equipping for personal Bible study—the goal is to make you a student of God's Word, not dependent on the pastor to spoon-feed you.

[Closing encouragement and prayer]

Friends, John Rackliffe ended his letter with these words: "Our time is short and God wants to use us for His purposes. Get out of the dark places and move into the light so that God can put you to work."

I couldn't agree more. Life is too short and eternity is too long to spend your Sundays in churches that aren't teaching you who God is. Pray and ask God to lead you to a church, a Bible study, or a home group that is learning about God from the Bible and honoring Him through genuine worship and obedience to His Word.

Let me pray for us: 

Thank you for joining me today. I know this was a challenging episode, but friends, it needed to be said. Your spiritual health and your family's spiritual health depend on being in a place where God's Word is taught faithfully.

Until next time, remember—as you keep your eyes on the nations, remember the warning that God's people perish from lack of knowledge. Don't let that be your story.

Releasing Your Child to God: Raising World-Changers at Home

Hello, friends, and welcome back to Nations 4 Jesus. Today I want to talk about something that's deeply personal to me as a mom of six—something that challenges me, convicts me, and encourages me all at the same time.

It's about releasing our children to God. It's about raising them with an eternal perspective. And friends, it's about recognizing that the most important mission field we'll ever have might just be sitting at our kitchen table right now.

[Hannah's story - the powerful opening image]

Let me take you to a moment in Scripture that impacts me deeply every time I read it. Picture this: Hannah is embracing her little Samuel one last time. She's placing his small, timid fingers into the wrinkled hands of the old priest, Eli. And then... she lets go.

What thoughts must have filled her mind in that moment? What questions did she surrender to the Lord? As she looked back toward her son, what did her mother's heart feel? How could she walk away from the answer to all her prayers? How could she release this dream she had so desperately longed for—this dream that was now a real little boy looking up at her with questioning eyes and a quivering lip, trying to obey her loving instructions, trying to hold back his tears?

[The eternal perspective we don't have]

If only Hannah could have known at that moment how the story looks from our perspective! We know her Samuel would soon hear the audible voice of God. We know he would impact the entire nation of Israel. We know that this very act of her obedient surrender would be recorded and recalled for generations.

But Hannah didn't know the future. She only knew it was time to say goodbye and go home—childless once again. She must have turned her face quickly so Samuel wouldn't see her mixed emotions. As Hannah walked away, she released her little one into the mighty hand of God and chose to worship. And as she did, God's plan began to unfold.

Because this child was not just Hannah's dream—he was God's dream. At that time, the nation of Israel desperately needed a new spiritual leader, and God had found a mother desperate enough for Him to willingly yield to His plans.

[Our vital role as parents]

As parents, we don't always realize the importance of our vital role in the kingdom of God. Will we equip our children to fulfill God's purposes and reach for God's potential? Will we train our children to reach their world for Jesus? These aren't just nice questions—they're the questions that should shape every decision we make in raising our kids.

Through this podcast, I desire to light a spark for world missions—like God has lit in me—that will grow into a fire for the unsaved like you've never had before. I want God's love for unreached people to burn so strongly inside you that it will start spreading to others, specifically to your own children and to the young people you come in contact with.

[Personal struggle - the tension of faithfulness]

Now let me be really honest with you about something I wrestle with. Over the years, through Jeff's Air Force career, I've had opportunities to travel to dozens of countries and see many of our world's appalling needs firsthand. We lived in Japan, South Korea, and Hungary. We've adopted internationally. We've seen the needs up close.

But in this particular season of my life, I'm primarily called to be at home. I love being a mother, raising a family, and teaching children through homeschooling. But sometimes—and I'm just going to be real with you—I want to do more. Many days I wonder if I am "doing" enough, and I often struggle with a horrible "striving" mentality in my flesh.

When I hear of "big needs"—like the desperate need for world missions, the 3.4 billion unreached people who have never heard the Gospel even once—I feel this striving to want to do more. I want to be busy! I want to go! I want to be on the front lines!

Over 23 years of parenting six children I often feel like I'm meeting mostly "little needs"—like folding the clothes over and over, explaining that math problem again, cooking the next meal, washing the next dish, and simply watching my children grow. Can anyone else relate to this?

[The truth about faithfulness vs. striving]

Yet deep inside, I do know the truth. Raising and training children—and serving my husband—is important! "Striving," or mere "busyness," is not the same as "fruitfulness." All God really requires is for me to stay close to Him and obey Him, day by day.

Today the Lord is simply showing me to be faithful—that is, to love God and to support Jeff here at home. To be fruitful—to be a mother and to teach and train our children in the ways of the Lord. And to keep my eyes on the future—to eagerly anticipate the Lord's return and keep living in His joy.

Friends, this is what Proverbs 22:6 tells us: "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." And in the Great Commission, Jesus told us exactly what way we should go: "Go into all the world and preach the gospel" (Mark 16:15). We're called to raise our children to go into all the world!

[Jesus as our model - the ultimate missionary]

David Livingstone, the great missionary to Africa, said something profound: "God had only one Son, and He made Him a missionary." Think about that! Jesus came as our missionary to earth. He relinquished everything in heaven to provide the way for us—and all people—to come into relationship with Him. He knew the cost before Him, and the price He paid was beyond anything we could imagine.

Hebrews 12:2 says we are to look to Jesus, "the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame." Jesus' incredible love compelled Him to the cross. His burning desire was to fully obey the will of the Father, providing a way for humanity to be reconciled back to God.

Jesus was willing to sacrifice whatever it took: His position in heaven, His unsurpassed riches and glory, His reputation, and even His very life. He was whipped, beaten, tortured, and despised—all for the joy that was set before Him.

[The joy that led Jesus to the cross]

What was that joy? Isaiah 9:2-3 describes the joy of harvest as a light shining through darkness. There's rejoicing when a lost coin is found! There's joy when a shepherd finds a lost sheep or when a prodigal finally comes home! Luke 15:7 tells us that "there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance."

Friends, this is the joy that led Jesus to the cross—the joy of seeing lost people come home to the Father. So here's my question for us today: How many of us are so captivated by God's love that we would be willing to lay down everything to follow Him? And more importantly, are we raising our children to have that same captivation?

[Critical questions - examining our priorities]

We need to take a moment to consider our lives and our priorities from God's eternal perspective. Let me ask you some hard questions—questions I have to ask myself regularly. As we teach and train our children, what are we hoping they will achieve? Are we hoping they'll get into a good college, land a high-paying job, and live comfortably? Or are we hoping they'll impact eternity?

As we steward God's resources, what are we saving toward? A bigger house? A comfortable retirement? Or kingdom purposes? As we influence the next generation, what dreams are we instilling? Dreams of success and security? Or dreams of reaching the unreached?

And as we talk to God, what is the primary focus of our prayers? Our comfort and convenience? Or His glory among the nations?

[God's love flowing through us and our children]

As Christians, we must realize that God's love—His passionate, world-changing love—resides in us. Are we willing to allow this love to flow through us and through our children to the world? Second Corinthians 5:14-15 says, "For the love of Christ compels us... that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again."

Friends, like Hannah, we must realize that our child is actually God's child—entrusted to us for only a short time. We need to release our child to God and then follow His guidance to raise His child for His divine purposes! This is not our job; it's our calling. This is not our burden; it's our privilege.

[Five ways to raise mission-minded children]

So let me give you five practical ways to raise mission-minded children right now, right where you are. First, pray with your children for unreached people groups. Get a globe or a map. Pick a country from the 10/40 Window. Research it together, learn about the people there, and pray specifically for them. 

Second, expose your children to missionary biographies. Read stories of Hudson Taylor, Amy Carmichael, Gladys Aylward, Jim Elliot. Let your kids see that following Jesus radically is normal Christianity, not exceptional Christianity. 

Third, support a missionary family together as a family. Write letters, send care packages, pray for them regularly. Let your kids see that missions isn't just something "other people" do—it's something your family participates in.

Fourth, teach your children about persecution and the unreached. Don't shelter them from the reality of what's happening in God's global Church. 

Fofth, release your expectations. Stop clinging to your own dreams for your children's futures. Ask God what His dreams are for them, and then parent toward those dreams instead.

[The hope - what God can do through surrendered children]

Friends, I don't know what God is calling your children to do. Maybe He's calling them to be missionaries in closed countries. Maybe He's calling them to be nurses who serve the poor. Maybe He's calling them to be business people who fund kingdom work. Maybe He's calling them to be faithful parents who raise the next generation of world-changers.

But here's what I do know: According to recent missions research, only about 3% of missionary efforts and resources are focused on reaching the 3.4 billion people in unreached people groups. That's a staggering gap! And God is looking for a generation of young people who will say, "Here I am, Lord. Send me."

Will your children be part of that generation? That depends largely on what we're teaching them today. What we're modeling for them. What we're praying over them. What we're releasing them to.

[The challenge - releasing them now]

So here's my challenge to you today: Start releasing your children to God right now. Not when they're 18 and leaving home—now. In your prayers, in your parenting, in your priorities. Stop holding them so tightly that God can't use them. Stop being so afraid of what might happen if they fully follow Jesus, that you subtly discourage radical obedience.

Hannah released Samuel when he was just a little boy, and God used him to change a nation. What might God do through your child if you release them fully to Him? You may never know in this lifetime. But one day in heaven, you might meet someone who came to Christ because your child was obedient to go. You might hear stories of lives changed, churches planted, and darkness penetrated—all because you raised your child to love the things God loves.

[Closing prayer and encouragement]

Let me pray for us: 

Thank you for joining me today, friends. I know this episode might have challenged some of your thinking about parenting and priorities. That's okay. Let God stir your heart. Let Him show you what it means to release your children to Him. And remember, the most important mission field you'll ever have sits around your kitchen table.

Until next time, keep your eyes on the nations and keep faithfully raising the next generation of world-changers.
