Shane Claiborne, The Simple Way

With tears and laughter, Shane Claiborne unveils the tragic messes we’ve made of our world and the tangible hope that another world is possible. Shane graduated from Eastern University, and did graduate work at Princeton Seminary. His ministry experience is varied, from a 10-week stint working alongside Mother Teresa in Calcutta, to a year spent serving a wealthy mega-congregation at Willow Creek Community Church outside Chicago. During the recent war in Iraq, Shane spent three weeks in Baghdad with the Iraq Peace Team. Shane is also a founding partner of The Simple Way, a faith community in inner city Philadelphia that has helped to birth and connect radical faith communities around the world.



Shane writes and travels extensively speaking about peacemaking, social justice, and Jesus. He is featured in the DVD series “Another World Is Possible” and is the author of the several books including The Irresistible Revolution, Jesus for President, and Becoming the Answer to Our Prayers. Shane speaks over 100 times a year in a dozen or so countries and nearly every state in the US. Shane has given academic seminars at Vanderbilt University, Duke University Pepperdine University, Wheaton College, Princeton University, Goshen College and Harvard University. Shane also speaks at various denominational gatherings, festivals, and conferences around the globe. Shane’s work has been featured in everything from Fox News and the Wall Street Journal to CNN and National Public Radio.



Dr. K.P. Yohannan, Gospel for Asia

Dr. K.P. Yohannan is the founder and international director of Gospel for Asia, a missions organization involved in reaching the unreached in Asian nations.

He spent eight years of his early adult life with Operation Mobilization, an international youth missions movement.

In 1974, K.P. came to the United States to attend Criswell College in Dallas, Texas. As a result of God’s calling, he and his wife, Gisela, dedicated their lives to bringing hope to the masses in the Indian subcontinent. They founded Gospel for Asia in 1979.

K.P.’s weekly radio broadcast, Road to Reality, is heard on more than 800 radio stations throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe and Australia. He has authored more than 200 books, including Revolution in World Missions, a national bestseller with more than 2.5 million copies in print.

He holds an honorary Doctor of Divinity from Hindustan Bible College in India.

K.P. and Gisela have two grown children who both serve the Lord with their families.



Freda Smallwood

Freda Smallwood now resides in upstate New York and travels extensively in the United States and abroad, but she has lived most of her adult life in Central Asia. For over thirty years she worked with her late husband, Art, to improve the lives of the native people, especially their eyesight.  They helped establish and grow a well known eye hospital and related ministries in that Central Asian country.  

Freda also served as an English teacher and in leadership roles for the expatriate community in the country on her heart.  Freda and Art raised their children in Central Asia, persevered through several regime changes, and lived in a difficult place out of love for God and His people.

Freda has seen much of God’s grace at work in the country on her heart, and her story now includes the sad task of experiences serving without Art, murdered in their country of service in 2010.  Her journey with God has been extraordinary, to be sure, but most importantly, it has been an ordinary Christian’s response to the world’s need and God’s call to serve.
