MAP Talks (Mission Awareness Presentation)
-
MAP Talk Description: The Stieng peoples of Vietnam and Cambodia are separated by only 20 kilometers but due to both cultural separation and a government which is hostile to the gospel, the Stieng of Cambodia (only around 10,000 in three provinces) remain unreached. The cultural barriers, language issues, and the needs of the Cambodian Stieng will be discussed as well as possible strategies needed for reaching this segment of the Stieng people for the gospel.
MAP Talk Speaker Bio: Joni has served as a missionary in Hong Kong, Vietnam, and Cambodia, and now resides with her husband, Gary, in the U.S. She continues to do strategic coordination work among the Stieng of Eastern Cambodia. In addition to aiding children in Vietnam and Cambodia through educational scholarships, she continues to work with local church planters in the Stieng area of Cambodia to share the gospel message.
-
MAP Talk Description: Antisemitism is a Gospel issue. Antisemitic incidents skyrocketed after the pandemic and reached new heights in the midst of the Israel-Hamas War. Christians must see Jesus in the faces of the Jewish brethren amongst us. When we confront antisemitism and speak comfort to our Jewish neighbors, the Holy Spirit begins healing generational wounds caused by historic Christian antisemitism and prepares Jewish hearts to hear the good news that Jesus is the Messiah of Israel.
MAP Talk Speaker Bio: Cariño is the Executive Director of the Church’s Ministry Among Jewish People (CMJ-USA). She is passionate to stir up the American church to build bridges with our Jewish neighbors, speak out against antisemitism, and proclaim Yeshua the Messiah to all nations. She has served with CMJ in Israel and the U.S. since 2014.
-
MAP Talk Description: The apostle Paul encourages Timothy to train up the next generation of leaders so they will be “qualified to teach others” (2 Tim 2:2). There is an urgent need to “train the trainers”—to biblically equip current leaders so they can entrust the gospel to the next generation of reliable and trustworthy leaders. We will consider three vital ingredients including how to communicate this training and the challenge that such training brings. Please join us to explore this urgent gospel task.
MAP Talk Speaker Bio: Bishop Gary is married to Christine with three adult sons. He is a missionary bishop with teaching and training experience in Africa, Malaysia, Fiji, and South America. He has also served as a parish minister, on the staff of a theological college, and as a diocesan bishop of a missionary diocese in outback Australia.

MAP Talk Description: How can we use God’s creation to share the love of Christ? God uses his creation to draw hearts closer to himself. The Church has a timely opportunity to lead the way in stewarding creation and, in doing so, point others to their Creator. As we engage people in his creation and share the specific revelation of Jesus Christ, we can lead them into a relationship with him. Join us to learn what it looks like to reclaim Christ as creator by igniting, captivating, and equipping faithful stewards of creation!
