 1024 719 Within Reach Global

“I am an overcomer!” was the exclamation of 100 Chinese students who attended our 2 day 2013 Chinese Christian Camp at Within Reach Global. The camp consisted of students from more than six universities, many different unreached tribal people groups, and twenty-five foreign short and long term missionaries.

The 100% Model: Taking A Page From The Charity: Water Handbook

 1024 682 Within Reach Global

Ever since I heard of charity: water’s bold promise to the general public, that 100% of their donations would go directly to the field to fund water projects, I was enamored. I coveted their promise, and sought to come up with ideas to replicate that strategy at Within Reach Global. Given, we are still somewhat…

Missions Ain’t That Mysterious

 1024 802 Within Reach Global

I have recently come to understand that many Christians do not get involved in long term missions because of the mystery surrounding what missionaries do. Or perhaps what missions actually is. Or possibly because they feel they have to “sacrifice it all for the sake of the call,” giving up their gifts and enjoyments to…

Reaching Unengaged People Groups Through Urban Mission

 800 600 Within Reach Global

I have spent some serious time on rural Chinese mountain tops, hours conversing with former headhunting tribes and ethnic minorities and unreached people groups. Real life people kind of ministry, where life rubs off onto life, and handshakes and hugs and smiles ensue. Conversations usually take place over wok fried leafy greens and spicy oil…

Missions Impacting Families

 800 534 Within Reach Global

The thought of impacting families is an integral facet of missions, but sadly so often overlooked. Admittedly, in the past even by Within Reach Global. For years we trekked through rural mountain villages in China, seeking hungry hearts to share the gospel with. We targeted young people, future leaders and culture shapers. And we still…
