From recent outreaches with YWAM TYLER, we put together some great advice you must take to heart when traveling with your school. Of course this is not by any means an exhaustive list; stay tuned for more amazing outreach stories, but this will definitely help you remain sane while living in community with your peers.

How I got from south texas to serbia
By Tyler Tom on 4 Aug 2017
In March of 2009, a small team from Youth with a Mission Tyler, Texas, called Take Action, visited my local church. At the end of their program, I found myself at the front of the sanctuary, on my knees, with someone praying out loud and over me. I can still remember hearing them praying, “God I pray that this young man would have the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of You; that you would open the eyes of his understanding, and that he many know what is the hope of His Calling, of the riches of glory in Christ Jesus.”

When DTS Outreach Became My Outrage
By Tyler Tom on 21 Jul 2017
As I sat in the classroom, listening to the speaker talk, I could barely focus on what he was saying because I was pumped about going on outreach. I was ready to do anything, go anywhere to share Jesus with someone who’d never heard about him.

Is Smuggling Bibles Risky?
By Tyler Tom on 26 May 2017
On a trip to South Asia, my colleague and I smuggled Bibles into a country that persecuted Christians, and never allowed the Bible to be brought in or published. We knew it was God’s desire to give His word to people in their heart language, so we took a risk and stuffed fifty Bibles into our luggage.

You're Not the Only One Struggling with Fundraising
By Tyler Tom on 11 May 2017
If you're having a hard time raising funds for your upcoming YWAM school, we want you to know you're not the only one. Many past students have found this to be a challenge at some point in their journey, but they've seen God's faithfulness to provide and first hand discovered nothing is too difficult for Him. We hope Adeline's story will encourage you to trust God for any needed provision.

By Tyler Tom on 6 May 2017
Do you want to impact the community and at the same time serve your family?
These are good questions that pop into your head when you decide to follow Jesus. YWAM Tyler believes that mission starts WITHIN the family no matter where you’re from or what culture you’re associated with. If you’re thinking about how to do missionary training as a family, please watch and learn how this one family found joy in following God’s calling.
선교의 부르심이 있는 것 같습니까? 가족들은 어떻게 생각하는지?
선교적인 삶을 통해 사회에 영향을 주고 또한 가족도 섬기고 싶으십니까?
예수님을 따르는 삶을 결정하실 때 자연스럽게 이러한 질문들과 맞닥트리게 됩니다.
YWAM Tyler 에서는 여러분이 어디서 왔는지, 그리고 어떤 문화로부터 왔는지 상관없이 선교적인 삶은 가족 안에서부터 시작된다고 믿습니다. 여러분께서 가족으로서 어떻게 선교훈련을 받을 수 있는지 고민 중이시라면, 지금 보여드리는 비디오를 통해 한 가정이 어떻게 주님의 부르심을 즐겁게 받아들이며 따르는 것을 보시길 기대합니다.
