What Would the Benefits of Missions Mobilization Be?
What would happen if you were trained and equipped as a Missions Mobilizer?
- You will know the joy of seeing people from nations your community reached gather around the Throne (Wedding Feast of the Lamb- Rev. 7:9)
- Your community will come to life and grow as they engage in God’s Global mission
- God’s Mission will become an essential part of your community’s operating system rather than a side activity
- Every member of the community maturing as a disciple who participates in the Great Commission through activities such as: learning, praying, giving, welcoming, going and mobilizing (advocating).
- Short-term missions trips serving as more than just a positive experience but rather a powerful means of developing mature disciples who are able to make disciples who can do the same both locally and globally.

Mindset Shifts that You Need to Make Right Now.
1) Mindset: As Missions mobilizers we have to go it alone because no one understands us.
Reality: Today there is a growing awareness of the vital role of mobilization and growing networks of mobilizers who are connecting and collaborating.
2) Mindset: Missions Mobilizers ask believers to make sacrifices in order to do more and give more.
Reality: There is overwhelming evidence missions vision does not rob anyone of time and money. Instead, that increased vision brings life and vitality to both individuals and whole communities!
3) Mindset: It is not clear what activities prioritize and how to increase fruitfulness.
Reality: You can glean priorities, principles and practices from experienced mobilization practitioners that will give you a clear sense of where to start and how to increase your fruitfulness.
4) Mindset: Building buy-in for missions vision is often very difficult.
Reality: When we engage with our community as learners, servants and storytellers, the buy-in becomes much more likely.
5) Mindset: Most believers are too busy and distracted to engage with global missions.
Reality: When there is a missions mobilizer helping people to lift their eyes, they are able see what God is doing in the nations. They become excited about getting involved.
6) Mindset: Mobilizers are only focused on sending missionaries to the unreached.
Reality: Mobilizers can play an important role in helping all disciples become active in disciple making locally and globally.
7) Mindset: Most mission mobilizers identify themselves as a mobilizer.
Reality: Most mobilizers are just Bible believing followers of Jesus who have caught God’s heart for the unreached and are willing to leverage their influence to help other believers find their part in Jesus’ Great Commission.
8) Mindset: New missionaries from the Global South cannot receive enough funding from the Global South.
Reality: The obstacle is not a lack of finances but is caused by failure to embrace their crucial role as senders not just rather than only missions receivers.

Bevin Ginder
Your Instructor
Bevin has been mentoring missions advocates for more than 20 years. He is married to Judy, an amazing Okinawan-Amercian lady. Together they are the proud parents of an 12-year-old son. Bevin and Judy met in Youth With A Mission (YWAM). For over 15 years, they served on the leadership team of a large YWAM community in Colorado Springs, Colorado, focused on mobilizing, equipping, sending, and sustaining missionaries who are going to the least-reached peoples on earth.
During the last 15 years, God has shifted the Ginders' focus to equipping and coaching the missionaries He is raising up from new sending nations in the Global South. This shift in focus eventually led them to move their family to South East Asia. Bevin and Judy serve with the Asia Leaders Learning Community which is a leadership development initiative in YWAM Asia. Bevin also serves as an International Mobilization Trainer for YWAM Frontier Missions.
