October Daily Prayer Watch

Every, Even the Margins

Every Home for Christ has just opened a new chapter in our history. Last weekend, Dick Eastman was formally named Every Home’s chief prayer officer, and I succeeded him as president/CEO.

When Dick recommended to Every Home’s board of directors that I succeed him as this ministry’s leader, I was profoundly humbled. I wondered, what can I offer to a ministry with such a rich legacy, audacious vision, and high caliber of leadership already established across the globe?

Through the season of transition and still today, my assurance is in this: my soul will not rest until every person on this planet knows Christ. I am driven by a desire to see every beating heart know the healing, hope, dignity, security, and love we experience when we personally encounter Jesus. My heart agrees with the heart of this ministry.

Every Home, including over 3,000 global staff and the average 200,000 volunteers who partner with us monthly, is always moving toward reaching every single person on earth, whether they live across the street or around the world.

When we say “every,” we mean not just people who are easy to reach, but people on the “margins”—people who fall outside the traditional sphere of outreach and discipleship. We’ll never stop taking the gospel from home to home, but we’re always asking if there’s more we can do to ensure no one is overlooked or left behind. Where else can we go? Who can we see who might be invisible to the rest of the world? Sometimes margins projects look like caring for people with disabilities and their caregivers. Sometimes it looks like boldly loving those who have been abandoned by their communities. Sometimes whole people groups fall into the margins, isolated by language barriers, difficult terrain, or generations of oppression. And we go to them.

You carry this passion with us.

We’re empowering local leaders to share the Good News in ways that truly reach everyone. We surround them with prayer. Work in the margins is far from glamorous. A believer loading a canoe to travel to a village so forgotten that no one else believes it exists might be mocked. A mother insisting that children born with disabilities are precious might feel all alone in her fight against stigma and shame. In those moments when the work is challenging, your prayers for your brothers and sisters uphold and strengthen believers serving in the margins.

Thank you for joining us. It is my honor to take up the mantle of leading Every Home with your prayers and support.

Every Prayer

The task of sharing the gospel with everyone on earth can feel overwhelming. It is something we cannot do by our own strength. We cannot rely on our own plans or systems.

Every Believer

We believe that following and obeying Jesus means that Christians should actively participate in sharing the gospel.

Our conviction is that there is no more worthwhile investment for a Christian than helping others know God. This is the mission of the Church, and every one of us is called to step out into the world to share the gospel.

Every Place

Today, spiritual conversations happen in homes, workplaces, events, streets, and even online. People can encounter Jesus anywhere. We meet people where they are, and many times, that starts at home.

The mandate Jesus gave us to go into the world is just as important today as it was when it was first spoken. We cannot wait for others to come to us. We must travel far and wide to every place and take the love of Jesus across the world.

Every Method

Ask a million Christians how they came to know Jesus, and you’ll hear a million different stories. Some will tell you they discovered God by reading a book, others will tell you of a stranger who knocked on their door, and still others will share a story about a large event or a church service.

A global mission requires that we recognize the unique needs of every country, context, and circumstance.

Likewise, we are engaged in many methods of sharing the gospel, and we will continue to innovate. Home-to-home outreach is our foundation, but we support and develop every method it takes to share Jesus with the entire world.

Every Person

The gospel is for everyone. It’s for all of us. Every person is made in the image of God and invited into relationship with him.

This open invitation is what makes the kingdom of God so incredible. In a world so divided, God’s love brings dignity, value, and hope to every single person, no matter who they are or what they’ve done. A relationship with the Creator is something everyone can experience.
