Who we are… Gospel Revival Ministries

Gospel Revival Ministries exists to equip native workers to reach their nations for Christ. Our mission focuses especially on unreached people groups—hidden tribes and isolated villages that are often inaccessible to Western missionaries. Because of this, we also use the motto “Equipping Native Leaders to Reach the Last of the Lost.” Today, missiologists estimate that more than 12,000 people groups still lack a clear Gospel witness.

How God Has Led Our Work

Over the years, GRM has partnered with native leaders across several nations. Through these partnerships, we have been involved in many relief projects connected to our network of indigenous workers. As we support them during their “hour of trial,” doors open for the Good News of Jesus Christ in communities that were once resistant.

In the last fifteen years, Gospel Revival Ministries has increasingly focused on sustainability. Whenever possible, we help native leaders develop vocational skills so that ministries continue long after we are gone. Rather than creating a welfare system, we aim to establish thriving, self-sustaining mission works. Our long-term work in Pakistan is a clear example of this approach.

However, not every region allows for full self-support. For instance, our ministry in Odisha (formerly Orissa), India—among the Ancient Bondo Tribe—requires ongoing financial support due to the remote and challenging environment.

Why We Serve This Way

We believe this approach is the most strategic and effective way to fulfill Christ’s command in Matthew 28:19–20:

“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”

By empowering native leaders, Gospel Revival Ministries can reach people in places where Western missionaries cannot easily go. This strategy brings long-term impact and multiplies the effectiveness of every ministry effort.

What we believe…

• That the Bible is the verbally inspired, inerrant Word of God. It is the complete revelation of His will for salvation and the only unfailing rule of faith and practice for the Christian life.
• In one God, Creator of all things, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that these three are co-eternal and of equal dignity and power.
• In the deity of Jesus Christ; His miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit; His virgin birth; His sinless life; His substitutionary death on a cross; His bodily resurrection; His ascension to the right hand of the Father; and His personal, imminent return.
• That man was created by and for God; that by man’s disobeying God, every person incurred spiritual death, which is separation from God, and physical death as a consequence; and that all people are sinners by nature and practice.
• The Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins and that all who believe in Him are declared righteous because of His sacrificial death and are, therefore, in right relationship with God.
• In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit indwelling all believers and thus enabling and empowering the life and ministry of the believer.
• In the bodily resurrection of everyone who has lived, the everlasting blessedness of those in right relationship with God, and the everlasting punishment of those who have rejected God’s forgiveness in His Son.
• We also hold the belief of the Lausanne Covenant.
