Passover: Israel's Legacy in Africa

One of the main celebrations of the Christ’s Church around the world is Easter. Christians around the world celebrate in unison the vicarious death of our Savior and his resurrection. However, this celebration traces back to the Old Testament, when the people of Israel were enslaved in Egypt and cried out for deliverance. It was, in fact, with their feet firmly planted on the African continent that the first revelation of Passover was granted to humanity.

Disability Ministry in 2025

Ryan Nelson
Disability Ministry Coordinator
M25

Individuals with disabilities are the largest minority population in the United States. Still, they are invisible in data because disability is considered a negative medical outcome. According to the Christian Council for Persons with Disabilities (2019), 80 percent of families who have a loved one with special needs are unchurched. Disability Ministry is not meant to be a nice new thing for a church to try.

Journey Highlights from the 2025 NDI General Board Report

Dr. Sam Barber
NDI Global Director
General Board

Walking by the sea, Jesus invited some fisherman to join him saying, “…follow me” (Matthew 4:19). These words of Jesus foreshadowed a ministry built around discipleship. Near the conclusion of Jesus’ earthly ministry, on the mountain, he said to his followers, “…go and make disciples” (Matthew 28:19). Discipleship “bookended” Jesus’ ministry with everything he did intended to turn his followers into faithful disciples.
