We Believe In Mass Miracle Crusade Evangelism:
Jesus (our Lord and example in ministry), Peter, Philip, Stephen, Paul, and the early church preached the Gospel Message with accompanying signs and wonders that confirmed the Word of God and gave evidence to the resurrection of Jesus Christ. As a result, multitudes came to hear the Word of God and to be healed of their sicknesses. This method is still effective today, reaching and meeting the needs of humanity on a larger scale. Mark and Victoria have seen crowds double, triple and even quadruple in size from one night to the next because of miracles of healing that take place in the Good News Miracle Festivals. People are hurting. People crave reality. People have real needs. People want to know the truth. The Holy Spirit, through the signs and wonders, convinces multitudes of Hindus, Muslims, Christians, and others of the reality of Jesus Christ.
We Believe In the Local Church:
Global Impact Ministries International endeavors to have the participation of all the local churches from every denomination in a community where a Good News Miracle Festival is conducted. This promotes unity, one-on-one evangelism, as well as provides a good system of follow-up to those who respond to Christ. Churches who participate grow numerically and spiritually.
Mobilizing Local Spiritual Leaders
To Plant Indigenous Churches In Un-reached Nations:
The key to reaching a nation is the local spiritual leaders. The national preacher already knows the language, the customs and culture of the people. One foreign missionary could go to a remote village, learn the language and customs, and eventually win souls and plant a church. This process can take months, if not years. But a local can do the same in a matter of weeks with less money. Therefore, GIMI conducts Faith and Fire Leadership Conferences, which strengthens and teaches the local ministers in the faith and mobilizes them to plant self-supporting, indigenous churches in unreached neighborhoods and villages. As a result, GIMI has seen more than 1,800 churches planted by the local evangelists and pastors who were mobilized in a GIMI conference. This has transpired in the first eight years of crusade and ministry.
We Believe In the Power Of the Printed Page:
Once a festival and conference is over, printed materials remain and continue to preach and inspire. Thousands of copies of the Gospel of John as well as a book entitled the New Birth have been distributed free of charge to new believers.
