The nation of Kenya holds immense significance in EmPowered Living’s mission to equip indigenous pastors with sound biblical training.
Jesus taught us that where there is hunger and thirst for righteousness, there is a great blessing in store! Kenya is one of the key nations in East Africa that is hungry for sound training.
The staggering reality is that 95% of pastors worldwide lack formal biblical education, leaving them ill-equipped to effectively preach the gospel and shepherd their flocks. In Kenya God has opened doors for EmPowered Living to minister to these hungry village pastors, whose hearts burn with a fervent love for God and a desire to share the good news.
They love God. They want to preach the gospel. But how can they preach the gospel if they don’t understand the Word of God?
It is a heartbreaking predicament — pastors who yearn to spread the truth of the gospel but lack the necessary tools and training to do so effectively. Many of these village pastors cannot even read or write, leaving them helpless and ill-prepared to fulfill their calling.
These pastors attend our classes with an amazing capacity to listen, learn, and absorb truth.
But through the generosity of compassionate donors like you, EmPowered Living equips these pastors to overcome these obstacles and become the transformative leaders their communities so desperately need.
Because of you, they are being helped. Your giving opens the door for them to deeply understand the Word and be equipped with sound doctrine. They learn how to read the Bible, how to study the Bible, how to effectively preach truth, how to move in the gifts of the Spirit in a healthy way, and many other aspects of pastoral leadership.
Your giving also provides English classes, writing courses, and GED classes in partnership with their Department of Education.
The impact of this training is far-reaching, with the potential to transform not only individual pastors but entire communities and nations.
One of the visions I have always had for training these village pastors, here and around the world, is to bring in quality educators. And, with your help, throughout the years, we have seen this vision happen. Great teachers with a passion for God and pastors have come alongside us. And when these village pastors are transformed, their churches are transformed, their villages, and the nation!
You and the EmPowered Living giving community are the catalysts for this ripple effect of transformation. By investing in the education and empowerment of these village pastors, you are not only equipping them with the tools they need to preach the gospel effectively but also igniting a movement that has the power to impact entire nations for the Kingdom of God.
Kenya is a nation hungry for sound biblical training, and through your generosity, EmPowered Living is answering that call. Together, we are empowering village pastors to become the leaders their communities so desperately need, transforming lives and communities with the truth of God’s Word.
