John Yoder, Cross-Cultural Partnership Coach

During 13 years in Beijing, I served ministry leaders across Asia and pastored at a large multiethnic International Church.  After returning to Minnesota I founded Immigrant Ministry Connections to equip American and immigrant Christians to serve together reaching our communities for Christ.  I’ve worshipped in 60 diverse immigrant congregations and had the privilege of sharing a meal or other conversation with most of their pastors.  I’ve interviewed dozens of cross-cultural ministry leaders over Zoom; clips from 6 of those interviews are included in the course videos.  My life has been deeply enriched by the spiritual zeal of believers from around the world, and I believe yours will too. 

The practical steps I teach in this course aren’t just for ministry professionals.  I’ve seen everyday Christians build warm, trusting relationships with immigrant friends using these techniques.  May God enrich your life through fellowship with brothers and sisters from around the world!
