## Resource

Dr. Jim Garlow spoke to the congregation at Ark Church in Redlands, CA on January 4, 2026. In his message, "The Church Under Fire: A Global Report," he discusses a long term (throwing in a tad of church history) and global look (nation by nation) at the condition of the church, and what is required to live out a vibrant Christian faith, even when in an hostile environment. Dr. Jim Garlow has partnered with Pastor Mario Bramnick and Terry Barnes to bring you World Prayer Network (WPN), which seeks out Holy Spirit given strategies for how to be an effective and contagious Christ-follower in our present national situations. WPN hosts weekly prayer calls to seek out strategies for the transformation of nations, including our own. During these live calls, we share briefings from key leaders and then pray into what we see and hear from the Lord.
