Professor of Missiology at the Living Faith Bible Institute, James Fyffe, continues the Unknown Missionary series on The Postscript today with Provost of LFBI Brandon Briscoe. We begin with the interesting story and legacy of the Erny family. Ed was the son of missionaries and grandson to Swiss Protestant immigrants to the U.S. Ed was trained for missions at Asbury Theological Seminary. Ed and Rachel spent 40 years in Asia as missionaries, suffering many trials along the way. Their testimony remains that God used them mightily, with many souls coming into Christ’s Kingdom and glory after them. Ed wrote an autobiography titled “No Reserves, No Regrets, No Retreats: The Life and Ministry of Ed Erny.”

Dan Jalowiec joins us today to share his testimony of salvation and how that led to a missionary call to Zambia, Africa for him and his wife, Jan. Dan shares many ways in which he has experienced God’s grace along the way. He discovered the mission field of Zambia on his very first mission trip, after a long career with his wife Jan in optometry. Most recently, Dan and Jan have planned to return to Zambia for more focused cultural and linguistic training; this time they will be without their children who have grown and are trusting Christ in their own endeavors as they have come to maturity.

In this episode Jeff Bartell, the missions pastor of First Baptist Church in New Philadelphia, OH and host of the podcast Theology Roundtable shares his missions experience in post-communist Albania. In 1992 Jeff found himself amidst a people who had never heard the gospel. He learned the language, preached the gospel and made disciples. Now that same Albanian local church God used Jeff to plant is biblically envisioned and actively reproducing local churches in other parts of the world. We discuss missions and specifically how the local church described throughout the New Testament fits God’s plan for evangelizing the lost and making disciples of Jesus Christ.

We continue our missions series with missionary and LFBI professor James Fyffe. Last time we spoke, we covered the ministry of George Grenfell in the Congo, Africa (Ep. 116). This time we travel to Asia to cover the life of another lesser-known missionary, Quan Xuan, who worked in Vietnam during a communist uprisal which severely opposed the spread of Christianity. His passion for Christ led him to become a great example of what it means to go before those we lead.

In this weeks episode we sit down with Pastor James Fyffe, professor of Missiology at Living Faith Bible Institute and former missionary to Southeast Asia to discuss a missionary not often talked about, George Grenfell. For over 20 years Grenfell gave his life to establish a chain of churches through the Congo. His story is one of inspiration and resolve.

In this episode with Missions Pastor Chris Best of Midtown Baptist Temple we hear how God gave a Chris a burden to develop a team. Then we look behind the scenes at the vision “DNA”, plan & work ongoing to prepare, send and support missionaries worldwide.
