Congo – Hope in the middle of tragedy

Late Monday evening, June 21, 2010 - It started off like a normal train trip from Pointe Noire, the economic center of the Congo, to Brazzaville, the nation’s capital. Some may have noticed late that evening that the packed train was traveling faster than normal, but no one dreamed what was about to take place. As the train took a curve approximately 40 miles from Pointe Noire, four cars derailed and headed into a ravine.

Calling America to Its Revival Roots

Sammy Tippit recently told Mission Network News that the present world-wide economic crisis has produced a spark for a spiritual revival, but is not revival itself.

But we need the wind of God to blow across their hearts that the spark may turn into a flame of revival.”
