Compassion International

Compassion’s mission is to release children from poverty in Jesus’ Name, and they fulfill their mission by partnering with churches located in areas with extreme poverty.

Did you know that every sponsored child, all 2.2 million, are cared for by a local church in their community? Every single one.

Compassion partners with over 8400 churches in the developing world, which means if your church partners with Compassion, you are helping a pastor and church reach its community with the love of Jesus.

If you are a church leader, Compassion also provides valuable resources for your congregation.

As a pastor, Compassion offered our church an amazing opportunity for outreach. It allowed everyone in our church to be personally engaged in missions – I trust Compassion and they made it easy for me as a lead pastor.

Preaching Cheat Sheet

Pastors, I know how difficult it can be to keep your sermons feeling fresh and relevant, especially when you’re preaching week after week.

Whether you’re hitting writer’s block or in a rush trying to put the finishing touches on your sermon, things don’t always go as planned.

To help, I’ve created a 10-step preaching cheat sheet. After decades of preaching, I simplified my sermon preparation into a series of steps and reminders that help me ensure my sermons are engaging, relevant, and memorable.

It’s easy to use, with just 10 simple prompts—and examples—that you can start using as early as this Sunday.
