Gurdaspur, India will always hold a sacred place in my heart.
It was here that I preached my very first international crusade, and nearly every year since, the Lord has allowed me to return—each time witnessing His unmistakable hand at work. What began with a few hungry hearts has grown into a mighty harvest. Multitudes have come to Jesus for the very first time, and some of those early believers are now leading thriving churches with thousands in attendance. I am deeply grateful for what God began in this region and for the faithful men and women who continue to steward His work.
This most recent crusade looked a little different—but God was no less powerful.
From the streets of Nepal, I preached live into India via Zoom… using my iPhone. In the middle of it all, the hotel lost power. Undeterred, I hurried into the street and asked a complete stranger for access to Wi-Fi—and they gladly helped. It was a beautiful reminder that when God opens a door, no obstacle can shut it. The Gospel is not bound. God gives us grace, creativity, and flexibility to preach His Word—no matter the circumstances.
When the altar call was given, many hands were raised as people responded to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior for the first time. That moment never grows old. The Gospel still works—every time, in every nation—because it is the living Word of God, and it never fails.
The crusade concluded with two glorious nights filled with worship, dancing, clapping, and joyful celebration of the Word of the Lord. We were also able to provide free fresh meals for attendees, many of whom traveled from distant cities simply to hear the Gospel.
Throughout the meetings, we received reports of instant healings. One woman testified publicly that she had been completely healed of chronic pain—she was pain-free by the power of God. Our God is good, and His mercy endures forever.
To our partners and donors: thank you. Thank you for your prayers. Thank you for your generosity. Thank you for sending us. Because of your faithfulness, the Gospel is being preached, the sick are being healed, and souls are being saved. We do not take lightly the calling—and responsibility—to proclaim this glorious good news that has transformed our own lives.
As Scripture reminds us:
“How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?” — Romans 10:14
Together, we are answering that call.
