Synopsis

Why Values Matter...

Youth With A Mission (YWAM) is a Christian missions movement like no other. Since 1960, it has launched wave after wave of young missionaries now into the millions who have impacted every nation on earth by simply listening to and obeying the voice of God. In Values Matter, YWAM Co-founder Darlene Cunningham shares inspiring stories of how God shaped YWAM into what it is today a large and effective wave-maker for missions through the spiritual DNA carried within its Core Beliefs and 18 Foundational Values. Darlene has lived, taught and led discoveries into these essential beliefs and values for decades on six continents. Her passion is to impart them into future generations of YWAM missionaries. This extraordinary book does just that.

About The Author

Darlene Cunningham is the Co-founder of Youth With A Mission, together with husband Loren -- an ever-expanding global missions movement currently serving in more than 200 countries. She is also the International Vice-Chancellor of YWAM’s University of the Nations. In the same way that Loren is the big-picture visionary, Darlene is the hands and heart of YWAM -- the implementer of vision, and people developer. When YWAM turned 25, Darlene began identifying, clarifying and teaching YWAM’s Foundational Beliefs and Values, which fueled her passion to pass on the spiritual “DNA” of the mission to new generations. She has led scores of multi-lingual YWAM leadership training events on six continents, creating opportunity for those who did not have access due to geographic, linguistic, or financial barriers. One of her greatest joys is discovering untapped leadership gifts in young men and women and helping them to reach their full potential in God. Close friends describe Darlene as “Spirit natural” -- totally non-religious, but always principled and godly. She is a lover of Jesus and will always, in every situation, point people to His great faithfulness. Darlene and Loren live in Kona, Hawaii, and are continuing their multi-generational missions legacy through daughter Karen, son David and his wife Judy, and their three grandchildren.

Si bien, Los Valores Importan está enfocado en enlistar, explicar y contar historias relacionadas a los dieciocho valores de Jucum, es imposible no considerar la mayoría de ellos, si es que no todos, como una carta de navegación para dirigir nuestras vidas en Cristo y nuestros ministerios, independi......more

Goodreads review by Tali on June 22, 2023

Values Matter is a list of amazing YWAM stories that line up with each of the values that YWAM have kept for years. Personally, I am more a fan of following a story all the way through, but if I have to read a collection of short stories, this would be the one. Darleen Cunningham is such an amazing......more
