Episode 4 Jason Mandryk -Finding adventure in praying for the world

Wonder if you can make a difference in the world? My conversation with Jason Mandryk, co director of Operation World, should be an encouragement to you. Not only will you see a lot of practical way to give yourself to the life of prayer for what God is doing around the world, I hope that you are encouraged by the creative expressions of what missions work can look like including Jason’s work.

“A master’s graduate in global Christian studies from Providence College and Theological Seminary in Canada, Jason Mandryk sensed that God was putting in him a more global calling to see the big picture, to analyze the trends, and to communicate the global challenge to the church. Jason coauthored the sixth edition of Operation World, released in 2001, with Patrick Johnstone. A regular speaker at mission events, Jason specializes in mission mobilizing, focusing on the biblical basis for mission and weighing strategic considerations for mission today and in the future.” (Via https://www.ivpress.com/jason-mandryk)
