Note from Steve Strang: Attending this meeting of leaders was a great honor. Please read my commentary on what I learned. I took the opportunity to bring home "flip camera" interviews with about half of the participants representing churches and ministries around the world. Each one is only 2-3 minutes but gives you more information about that ministry. If you view several or all of them, you'll begin to get a feel for what is happening around the world—and that is my goal.
Come back to this site as we will be adding more commentary on some of the ministries from parts of the world where there is persecution—especially in the Muslim world. We will also put up other videos and other materials from my trip in March that I believe will inform, inspire and minister to you.
