“I’m a firm believer that God uses many kinds of churches and agencies to do many different kinds of ministry and service. We need the large, respected institutions and organizations. But we also need new emerging organizations that are nimble, exploratory, innovative, and relational – ones like ServLife. We especially need leaders – like Joel Vestal – who are eager to build grass-roots partnerships with courageous and humble people around the world doing street-level ministry to express Christ’s love. The days of missions as a Euro-American enterprise are passing to this new day of global partnerships built on relationships, and ServLife is one of a short list leading the way into this new territory.”
