Hein VanWyk Giving Keynote Address

On a beautiful early summer evening in Scottsdale, Arizona, the DNA Support Center hosted its first-ever fundraising dinner. Hein VanWyk, Southern Africa Coordinator for Samaritan Strategy Africa gave the keynote address, along with Scott Allen, DNA Support Center President.

Over 50 people attended the event, hosted by Danny and Jodi Nelson, friends of the Disciple Nations Alliance. DNA board member Dwight Vogt served as Master of Ceremonies, and new DNA Support Center team member Gary Brumbelow shared his testimony of how the DNA has impacted him. Former DNA support center staff member Jeffrey Houser and his wife Christine served as table hosts.

The sponsors for the evening were Greg and Jean Vestri. Greg was formerly president of Food for the Hungry. He and Jean graciously provided a donation that covered all of the expenses for the evening. By God’s grace, over $18,000 was raised to support the work of the DNA.

The Gospel Has No Significance for Society

Christian nationalism was recently denounced by John MacArthur as a faulty viewpoint. He says things will get continually worse on Earth. Unfortunately, this view cultivates apathy and even discourages cultural influence. In contrast to this view, Christ teaches us to pray: “Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” If things will only get worse, then what was the justification for the profoundly positive influence of Christian leaders like William Wilberforce? And why should we, as Christians, work to eradicate slavery, human trafficking, and abortion? Wherever God has placed you, whether in a family, school, political office, or bakery, you are called to faithfully represent Christ and His Kingdom in everything you do. It’s time for a faith that is active, not passive, in the face of challenges.

Words Worth Rejecting or Redeeming with Dr. Elizabeth Youmans

Words are constantly created and redefined in our day. With such dramatic shifts, how can we have the “mind of Christ?” Words are not just sounds we utter; they are powerful building blocks for culture. Words and their meanings shape our thinking, convictions, beliefs, and worldview – ultimately bringing about our actions. Which words need to be redeemed? Are there words that need to be rejected? Today we are joined by author, teacher, education consultant, trainer, speaker, and our good friend, Dr. Elizabeth Youmans, who helps us think deeply about this while helping us consider specific words like, gender, marriage, liberty and more.
