Maybe he should put the rest of the world on hold and be a missionary in America.
Hi Giovanna, that’s exactly what he’s doing even though he dreaded coming back to the states (after spending a decade in Peru)—as he’s disheartened by the materialism and the apathetic, cultural Christianity that has dominated the church in this country for so long. He is an evangelist and he sees his primary mission field to be composed of Christians (or those who believe theselves to be Christians) moreso than unbelievers.
It’s “Christians” that need to hear the real Gospel more than ever today. He’s pointsout that in America, it’s the church that needs reform. The church has lost its power because it’s become too worldly. It needs to be strengthened in the Word and become a better reflection of Christ—which means standing in stark contrast to our godless culture. Only then can we reach out to the unbelieving world.
Washer continues to travel frequently, namely Europe and Latin America. His home church is in Alabama, but his main ministry is the organization he founded called “Heartcry Missionaries.” His passion for Christ and to see Him glorified continues to challenge and convict my own standing in the faith. His sermons are on youtube if you want to hear more of his preaching. God bless!
