Responding to Mission’s Minefields

Newton Chilingulo is a supported GO Partner of Bethany Baptist Church. He serves as Pastor of Reformation Bible Church in Lilongwe, Malawi, and is a graduate of Christ Seminary in South Africa, where he sat under the instruction of fellow Bethany GO Partner, Dave Beakley. Newton and his family joined us in Peoria (along with five additional GO Partners) for our annual Global Outreach Conference, a five-day focus on missions work across the country and throughout the world.

The Frailty of Godly People

The very same hardships that God designs to grow our faith can also destroy our faith when we grow frustrated. Frustration places us in great spiritual danger because it destroys our faith in God and tempts us into unbelief. But our unbelief dishonors God and disconnects us from His divine blessing.

God’s Deliverance

God delivers His people from bondage by grace through a blood sacrifice. But His primary focus in His redemption is freedom from the spiritual bondage of our own sin, not liberation from external oppression.
