Who Are We?

What We
Believe

© 2003 Global Outreach Development, Inc.

What does it really mean to “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind and love your neighbor as yourself?” Are churches around the world, regardless of the poverty level in their given countries bound by the same mandate we are; to “go into all the world and make disciples?”

These are the two overriding questions that drive this ministry. Because we desire that every Christian come to understand their unique role in the Great Commission we focus our efforts on helping every Christian develop a great commitment to God’s greatest commandment. In doing so, we believe that Christians will not simply win the world for Jesus Christ but will develop disciples of Him along the way.

That’s why, in May of 2003, Bob & Janet Wielenga started this ministry called Global Outreach Development. It’s purpose is to simply use education and experience to help believers better understand how to live out both the Great Commission and the Great Commandment.

This is being accomplished through two programs.  Develop U is a series of workshops and seminary courses that focus on educating ministry leaders in the areas of leadership development and stewardship training. Simply Missions is a program designed to assist groups of people interested in serving in short-term missions.
