From Dr. Charles Wisdom
"I
am happy to commend to you the person and ministry of Brother B.
[of
The Elijah Challenge]. The
Lord has gifted him with keen insight into biblical teachings on
POWER ENCOUNTERS and he handles this exciting
and potentially controversial subject with great wisdom. I have attended
the seminar William teaches and this led me to invite him to present
it in the First Baptist Church of Katy. Any pastor or lay leader
will be greatly blessed who sits at the feet of this gifted and humble
servant of the Lord."
"I
approve Brother B. for many reasons:
1.
I think God has placed this calling on him and his wife: physical healing
as a means of leading people to place their faith in Jesus Christ.
Especially in developing countries God is using this ministry to open the eyes of unbelievers and give them hope for healing
and for eternal life.
2.
He is not an "extremist" in the healing
ministry. He believes in doctors and healing through the means God has given us (medicine,
etc). In addition, he is not using this ministry for personal gain:
he is not making millions of dollars and flying all over the
world
in his own jet, etc. (I do not know the hearts of those healing
evangelists on TV. I will let God be their judge. However, I am
greatly concerned
that the love of riches, power, etc. is getting to some of
them!)
3. They have humble, caring, Christ-honoring spirits.
I believe they are people of great integrity.
Bottom
line: go to his Training; you will be blessed. If God is calling
you to this ministry, you will get lots of
help from them."

From Pastor Roy Meadows
"Brother
B. and his wife are for real. They are faithful to the Word. They
are sweet and humble. I love them. I
encourage you to attend their Training."

Received
from a Southern Baptist missionary in India who attended
The Elijah Challenge Training in Uttar Pradesh
"I wanted to write and let you know, again,
how much we appreciated the teaching you brought to [our area].
We have applied much of your
teachings to our personal ministry and have seen much fruit in the
past couple of months from it. We had 12 student volunteers this
past summer and taught them all from your material about using their
God-given authority. As a result, several people have indicated decisions
for Christ due to healings and miracles.
A university professor from a large Christian college
even took your teachings with him and indicated a possibility of
including
it in his teachings this next year. We've also included it in our
trainings as we've been training hundreds of nationals in how to
plant churches. So thank you again for your influence and for your
teaching from God's word."
Their
Story
In 1978,
Brother B. and his wife L. left California to preach the Gospel
to unreached people groups living in the primitive
darkness of West Borneo. At that time he had been a Christian for
just two years. He had never led a Bible Study or taught Sunday School,
but had witnessed on the streets of Southern California as a first-year
seminary student. They had no formal training for
missions, and no mission board or church to send or support them.
He had no missionary visa and no idea what he was going to do after
they arrived, except to trust God to lead them.
But
God was enough. He miraculously opened doors for them to “dance
on the edge of the earth” for nine years. By His grace, they
led to Christ many souls bound in the grip of sorcery, idol-worship
and false religion. They witnessed powerful signs and wonders, and
made disciples and planted churches in areas which had lived under
the complete domination of demonic strongholds. Dancing on the
Edge of the Earth is the you-can’t-put-it-down account of the mountain
peaks and valleys they experienced as they followed Jesus to the
ends of the earth.
