The world is instantly connected, yet millions still haven’t heard the story that changes everything. We sit down with Pastor Kyle Trewern to explore how a missionary family is planting Genoa International Church in a city where fewer than two percent personally know Jesus—and why prayer, partnership, and persistence are breaking through real barriers of distance, language, and culture. From a house church reading John in four languages to a quiet hospital-room miracle that turned alarms into awe, these stories show what happens when we ask for rain and bring the saddle inside.

We walk through a simple blueprint that hasn’t changed since Acts 1:8: wait on the Lord, receive the power of the Holy Spirit, and be witnesses locally, regionally, and globally. Kyle shares how everyday hospitality—meals, open Bibles, and honest questions—can help neighbors from China, Russia, and across Europe hear the gospel in their heart language, often for the very first time. Along the way, we confront a sobering image: too many empty saddles in churches and missions. Whether it’s seventeen pulpits open across Arizona or entire neighborhoods in Genoa without a Bible-preaching church, the need is clear and the invitation is personal.

If you’ve ever wondered how to make a real impact, this conversation offers practical next steps: pray specifically for laborers and open doors, give strategically through Kingdom Builders to fund translation and church plants, and be ready to go—across the street or across the sea. You’ll hear a warm, faith-filled challenge to move when the Spirit moves, plus a heartfelt invitation to trust Jesus and seek the Spirit’s empowering presence.
