Burning Hearts Transform Children: A.C.T.S. Plan for a Christlike Australia (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781726360555)

In February 1990 Fred Schaeffer heard an audible male voice state, "I want you to evangelize in Australia." He blurted, "Who?" The voice responded, "The Aborigines." Fred and his wife Carol responded to the call and learned from Australian missionaries that "Aboriginal people are the most neglected people on the face of the earth after 230+ years of oppression." From Massachusetts, they arrived in Sydney in 1996 and have built a US/Australian/Asian network of 13,000+ Prayer Partners and an Australian network of 128 Volunteer Evangelists who distribute Biblical resources in Aboriginal communities. Thousands have responded to God's saving grace, through combined action and prayer. "The Aboriginal people are starving for Jesus and His word!" Revival is rapidly spreading, but Australia is still a demonic stronghold. The worldwide church logistically needs a Christ like Australia to take Asia for Christ. Christianity is growing more rapidly amongst the Aborigines in Australia and Asia, especially in China, than in the rest of the population. The book presents a 12-year plan to evangelize Australia's coastal perimeter through the most accessible Aboriginal communities. A.C.T.S. vision of a reproducing, Christ like Australia, aided by a unified prayer evangelism network, supported by the world church, to conquer Asia for Christ by 2030 requires expansion in the A.C.T.S. organization, outreach, worldwide Action Prayer Network and budget in each of the next 12 years. Prior to founding A.C.T.S. in 1991 and permanently moving to Australia in 1996, Fred and Carol founded the Commonwealth of Massachusetts' first private business incubator, co-founded Salomon/North America, and helped create North American distribution companies for European sporting goods manufacturers such as Nordica, Puma and Fischer. Throughout the years, Fred and Carol amplified postgraduate education (MBA with distinction at the Kellogg School, Northwestern University and Tufts University, School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston) with studies at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, where they also served on the President's board from 1983 till 1996. The Schaeffers have also served on a regional board of Gideons International and have been trained by and or partnered with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, CRU (Campus Crusade for Christ), Bible Society-Australia, Wycliffe, and OMS International (One Mission Society). Fred and Carol continued their education at the Nazarene Theological College. Fred became an ordained elder of the Church of the Nazarene in 2000 and served as a pastor of multi-cultural churches in Enmore and Tweed Heads, N.S.W. In the past 25 years, well over 100 Christian Australian leaders have been assisted by A.C.T.S. to build a variety of fruitful enterprises and ministries. Since 2007, A.C.T.S. has used Fred and Carol's combined experience to direct the power of massive, united, action prayer and personal evangelism to build a rapidly reproducing network among 700+ Australian communities.
