Silk and I had the privilege of welcoming a remarkable A3 leader into our home. A few members of our staff and board joined us around the table, and over a lunch Silk had prepared, we spent several hours listening as he walked us through what God has been doing through A3 in one of the most challenging environments in the world.
Sometimes ministry moments begin in surprisingly simple ways.
When the bombs started flying over the Persian Gulf, I started receiving messages that were hard to fully comprehend.
There are moments in the life of a movement when you sense God is inviting you to go deeper—not wider.
Our summit in Kuala Lumpur was one of those moments.
"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."
— JOHN 16:33
This week, we said goodbye to one of the most faithful friends and board members our mission has ever known.
This week has been full of sobering developments in the Middle East. We have been reminded how fragile parts of our world remain.
I’d like to share an update regarding the Middle East and invite you to pray with the A3 Community for this situation, especially on Thursday, March 5th.
CHANGING THE FEW WHO CHANGE THE MANY
By Joseph W. Handley
CEO, A3
Graduations are always liminal moments. Something has ended, yet something new is beginning. But in places like Middle Asia, that threshold carries unusual weight.
The World Evangelical Alliance (WEA) General Assembly in Seoul, South Korea) gathered nearly 900 delegates from 124 nations and thousands of Korean pastors and believers. It was a powerful picture of the global Church united in purpose: seeking God’s guidance for how we live, proclaim, and embody the Gospel in our generation.
WE HAVE ALWAYS BELIEVED THAT A CHRIST-CENTERED LEADER, WHO'S FUELED BY GOD AND SUPPORTED BY A LOCAL COMMUNITY, CAN CHANGE A NATION.
Looking ahead to 2026, I am super thrilled with all that God has on the horizon for A3.
As 2025 draws to a close, I’ve found myself returning again and again to one word: MULTIPLICATION.
