Have you thought about the eternal fate of Australia? 22% of Australians register as having no religious affiliation. Those claiming 'no religion' comprise the second largest block of religious beliefs in Australia. Correspondingly, over the past ten years, the percentage of those identifying with a religion has declined by 4.5%. The 2009 Australian Survey of Social Attitudes indicated that of the 22% who express 'no religion', "one-third may be atheists, one-quarter agnostics, and about 40% of them feel there is something beyond, perhaps God, or perhaps some sort of higher power." By far the majority of those who indicate they are Christians do so because they believe in the values of Christianity and not a personal relationship with God through Jesus.

Since 1971, the percentage of Australians following a religion other than Christianity has increased from less than 1% to 7% of the population. Australia has undergone incredible change over the past fifteen years. People rely on experience and one another to determine the truth. Jesus is the light and provides life. Many changes in Australia have opened up incredible opportunities for the gospel.

With the tremendous spiritual needs, Jesus' words carry much significance - "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few." We need labourers to help reach Australians on the field and behind the scenes. Join us with Campus, Families, Church Movements, GAiN, Youth, or in HQ. 

You can make a difference! 

 

"I urge you ... to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and please to God..." Romans 12:1

"All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations ..." Matthew 28:18-19

"The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field." Matthew 9:37,39

 

The opportunity for involvement in full-time ministry is a great privilege. Although it is not for everyone, we believe that in view of the needs of the world and the love and mandate of Jesus Christ, being in full-time ministry is a possibility all Christians should prayerfully consider. Our application process is designed to help you decide if Power to Change is where you would like to serve God.

We encourage you to prayerfully consider joining us!

"I love to help encourage people to trust God for big things. Seeing people take a step of faith and trust God with the impossible or at least the highly improbable get me excited. We serve a God who wants to do so much more than we ask or imagine." - Tim Freyer

  • "Passing the Baton the Next Generation"

                               ~ Jonathon Kilchester, a missionary with the Campus Ministry                          Passing the baton to the next generation Let me reintroduce you to Harry. He is one of the students I have been discipling at Monash uni for the past 3 years or so. Last year he graduated and has since joined as a missionary with Power to Change! As I have taken on the Global Missions Director role with Power to Change Australia, I have had to step back a little further from my on-campus ministry (though I still plan to engage with the basics of evangelism and discipleship on campus). I have been on Monash uni now for 10 years. But what I'm thrilled about is that I can now pass the baton on to Harry,…

  • Stories and Reflections

    ~ Jackie Kim, a missionary from the Campus Ministry   In October, I went to Melbourne with 7 other new campus missionaries for training. It was amazing!    Follow up... Last time I wrote, we were celebrating answered prayers of God bringing spiritually-open, non-Christian students who wanted to meet again. I actually got to follow-up with a couple of them which was pretty exciting! We continued reading the Bible with Miles and looked at Jesus’ crucifixion in Mark. I was so amazed when after the study Miles could explain the whole thing clearly in his own words (including reasoning for Jesus’ death). We’re still not sure he believes it for himself but he seems to like meeting up with us every week! We also met with Emily, who shared her life story with us for almost 2 hours! I was a bit disappointed at the lack of Jesus in our…

  • Where will we stay? Mary asked...

    "Where will we stay?" Mary asked. "We'll find somewhere" Joseph replied.   He sounded more confident than he felt. The uncertainty of their accommodation was in contrast to the certainty of his reception from his relatives. They'd disowned him for the shame of marrying this pregnant girl. They hadn't listened to his dream. Still, in obedience to Caesar's decree, and to a greater calling that they were only beginning to understand, they wound their way along the well-worn path.

  • Fruitful Church Planting!

    Imagine planting five house churches in four years. This is what Poh Choo and her husband Phil have done in Melbourne through the Basic Church network under the umbrella of Churches of Christ. Poh Choo is also a missionary with Power to Change serving with me in the Church Movements team. Poh Choo's motivation to get involved in planting house churches was her passion for disciplemaking. "In Basic Church, we keep programs really low and emphasis training our people to be a disciple of Jesus," Poh Choo explained. This focus is shaped around loving God, loving others, and making disciples. "We focus on developing a personal relationship with God, learning to hear from and obey Him. We seek to love, care, pray for one another, and then reach out to the lost. Disciplemaking is in our DNA. Part of our culture is that everyone who comes to Basic Church will…

  • God's Story!

    - By Stuart Brownscombe, Youth MInistry   At the end of Term 2 (before Sydney went into lockdown), the younger Bible Study group were exploring the big picture of God’s story. We had started in Genesis and were making our way through Exodus. The topic for that afternoon: The Ten Commandments.   I explained the setting to the students, that God had rescued his chosen people from Egypt and was now telling them how they were to live as His people. Miles was surprised by this. He asked how people were supposed to know how to live before God had given them the commandments. We turned to the book of Romans where Paul says that the law is written on our hearts and our consciences.

  • Our Amazing Finance Team

    - Geoff Folland: National Leader-Strategic Engagement       After 25 years on campus in Sydney, I moved to Melbourne last Easter to take up a national leadership role. I'd always enjoyed sitting across the table from a student, having a laugh, and engaging with God's Word together. It was a privilege to see God at work before my eyes.  But I was always aware of those quiet servants in our HQ who processed our finances, tracked down insurance policies to cover our events or processed new missionary applications. Our work on campus - or in schools, churches and the community, couldn't happen without them.  Almost all of them raise financial support to serve in mission this way. We praise God for these servant-hearted missionaries. We need three important roles (salaried, 1 supported).      These are the roles that are so important to us: 1. Experienced Finance Officer2. Major Partners Manager3. IT Manager If you know anyone who might be suitable…
