Nothing but the Word
Romans chapter 1, verse 17, says, “For in the Gospel, a righteousness which God ascribes is revealed, both springing from faith and leading to faith (disclosed through the way of faith that arouses to more faith). As it is written, the man who through faith is just and upright shall live and shall live by…
The Riyadh Miracle
I have just returned from another incredible time of ministry in Saudi Arabia. I am not at liberty to disclose all information here via the website, but what God is doing through Grace Outreach Church is nothing short of a miracle. The Church has literally exploded! This revival meeting was a celebration of four…
En route to Riyadh
Chresten has safely arrived in Dubai for a lengthy layover before his final leg of the journey to Riyadh. We appreciate your continued prayers on our behalf, as well as on behalf of the Grace Outreach ministry team as they are carrying a significant load. God will do great and mighty things this week!
Your prayers are welcomed!
Tomorrow I will depart for Riyadh, Saudi Arabia by way of Washington, D.C, returning next Sunday, October 21, 2012. I would most certainly welcome your prayer support for this exciting endeavor. Saudi Arabia is at peace currently but, as you know, things can turn quickly in that part of the world. I simply ask for…
Profession & Possession
Jesus was teaching His disciples, both then and now, that this tree was making a profession of bearing figs, but had no possession of figs. If it had leaves, it was supposed to have fruit.

I covet your prayers for protection while traveling to and from Riyadh by plane, supernatural favor through customs,…
Lakota Sioux Update
On Sunday afternoon, July 29, 2012, I, along with a team of 17 from various churches in Oklahoma, made my way on a 15-hour journey to the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. This is home to the Oglala-Lakota Sioux tribe of Native Americans. One would never think that, looking at the beautiful backdrop of…
Evangelizing the Rez
Chresten headed out Sunday afternoon for a 15-hour journey with a team of 17 from members of New Life Assembly in Owasso, OK and New Life Assembly in Broken Arrow, OK. Destination: the Lakota-Sioux Indian Reservation of South Dakota. While this is a strange land, Chresten is no stranger to it. He’s been blessed with the…
Hurry up….and wait
I recently came upon Isaiah 40 in my personal Bible study, which contains many familiar verses to most of us. It was, in essence, a word of comfort to God’s people as they had been in captivity in Babylon for 150 years! (I imagine we’d all need a word of encouragement by then….) I want to…
An experience that leaves no doubt
Through an experience that leaves no doubt a lost world comes in contact with the living Jesus.
Are YOU an evangelist?
Some today believe that the work of the evangelist is outdated and unnecessary. However, the book of Ephesians chapter 4 makes it very clear that the evangelist is still one of the five-fold ministry gifts to the Church. A true evangelist’s heartbeat is to partner with the Church for the winning of souls & to stir…
