Day of Battle: North Africa (Dispatches from the Front Episode 7) (DVD)

“Dispatches from the Front is a thoughtful, moving, understated, and ultimately convicting series of videos depicting the work of the gospel in some of the most challenging corners of the world. Here are brothers and sisters in Christ who in Gods grace display faithfulness and transcendent joy, unflagging zeal to share the gospel, and an unfettered allegiance to King Jesus. To watch the kingdom advance in the teeth of these challenges is to learn humility and rekindle contrition, faith, and intercessory prayer.”

I would greatly encourage you to get your hands on them if you seek to instill a culture of evangelism and mission in your family or church. They are very well done and give you a great on the ground’ view of how different people are seeking to take the Gospel to places where there is currently no access to it.”

“Paul tells us that the gospel comes to people (Colossians 1:5-6). The gospel, in a manner of speaking, searches people groups out in every corner of the world, and when it comes to them, it wonderfully bears fruit and grows among them (v. 6). Dispatches from the Front provides us with an inside look at the gospel doing its life-changing work in the forgotten places of the world. If you want to expand your vision of what God is doing in the world through the gospel, Dispatches from the Front will serve you, your family, and your church family extremely well.”

“Frontline Missions is perhaps too modestly named. Its ministry often reaches behind the frontlines to those areas and peoples that are in greatest need of hearing the soul-saving gospel of Christ and receiving the compassionate assistance of God’s people. These ministries aren’t carried on in hit and run fashion. Care is taken to train Christian leaders and to raise up and nourish responsible churches that will carry the work forward into the otherwise uncertain future of unreached and unbelieving peoples all around the world.”

“From the teeming humanity of cities like Bangkok to the remotest outposts of civilization, Dispatches takes us on an eye-opening journey through the world of the weak and despised of South East Asia: women and children enslaved in the sex trade, AIDS victims on the brink of eternity, hungry street children, and lepers. Yet in the midst of this overwhelming despair, we meet people like Esther doing her happy work of service to the Lord, and many others like her who have become living testimonies of the freedom Christ alone offers. Your faith will be strengthened as you listen to these stories of everlasting hope in the face of the very shadow of death.”

“Dispatches is like watching a reality television show. You feel like you are there, and you sense the emotions and crises of the people you meet on the screen; but it is not entertainment. It opens the vistas of spiritual reality, and after it is over you can’t just turn it off and walk away. You have to pray and say, Lord, what would you have me do?”

“Dispatches shows the Church forming organically and supernaturally like a modern-day book of Actsand the form of the video mirrors this. It is travelogue-ish: a meditative, reflective journey. It goes beyond the pragmatic and pedestrian use of video to create something more like a parable which invites the viewer in and creates space for God the Holy Spirit to work.”

“Dispatches is saturated with the brilliance of the Gospel. It is a travelogue of the soul-transforming power of life of Jesus Christ. Thank you for such a vivid narrative of how the righteousness of Christ is the only answer to the desperate need of mankind. The emphasis on the reliance of God’s Word and the work of the Holy Spirit fills this presentation and will impact all who see it. It will zealously challenge the hearts of Christ’s followers and direct the seeker to the One who is Truth. Praise God!”

“Who knows what might happen if churches and small groups and families were to watch these videos together, open to God’s leading for going and sending? It is a risk to watch them. But the motivation is Gospel grace, not guilt. I cannot recommend too highly these DVDs.”

“Dispatches from the Front is a fascinating look at how the gospel is penetrating some of the world’s neediest places. These are regions where all the worst agonies of human life are multiplied and magnified relentlessly by war, extreme poverty, sex trafficking, drug dealing, false religion, and disease. . . . But your spirit will be encouraged by the triumphant power of Christ.”

“Beware of watching these Dispatches if you don't like being moved and inspired and shaken out of the ruts of your life. My wife and I were riveted in watching the frontline reports of God's work recorded in the Dispatches from the Front. This is the sort of information that builds faith in the present providence of God over his mission, and stirs up action for the sake of lost and hurting people near and far. I would love to see thousands of people mobilized as senders and goers for the sake of the glory of Christ and the relief of suffering on the frontiers, especially eternal suffering.”
