April 2008:

Dear Jim,

We are willing to be accountable for the work here in India and we are avail ourselves for teaching, correction, we are willing to be submissive to the leadership, we need counsel, guidance etc., There are a great harvest and given us an opportunity to work with your mission we are sure that we will be to plant hundreds of churches and able to raise hundreds of native workers in this region.

l am very, very, excited to hear that you are planning to come down and visit us…

(Jim began to disciple Aarav on a regular basis but did not respond to Aarav’s previous email to be under or accountable to Jim and his team. Jim just started pouring out the Word to him… but later Aarav asked again if he could be under Jim’s leadership.)

June 2008

Dear Jim,

We once again request you to consider giving us an opportunity to get associated with your churches in this region. Hope God is making a way for you to come to India very soon.

With much love and prayers,

Aarav

(After Aarav’s repeated appeal to be associated with Jim, Jim said ok, and then began to really admonish Aarav to drop all American church traditions and follow only the NT model, as reveled in Jim’s book Church Revolution Today at www.JimsBookstore.com  )

Dear Jim,

I read your book Church Revolution Today again, this time I read it slowly three times… sitting with my bible referencing all those scriptures. Thank you for that book!  Thank God for inspiring you to write this…indeed it will bring a revolution to the traditional churches of our generation…

I do make up my mind to make drastic changes in our ministry… especially in regard to the house churches…and what you say about the meal thing… now I’m more convinced… we were traditional for too many years.

This year 63,000 baptized, hundreds of new house churches and hundreds of new leaders… praise Lord. Hope see you soon to talk to leaders.

Dear Jim

The work is continually multiplying and increases more than 100,000 churches that meets in the homes. God has raised up hundreds of leaders to serve the movement…

Aarav

(In all Jim’s years working with Aarav, unlike many in India, Aarav never asked Jim for money, nor did Jim ever give him anything, but only the Word! Jim showed Aarav, along with other things, the N.T. way of financing to reach the world, as in Jim’s two books Church Revolution Today and especially Army of Preachers, quite unlike traditional America Christian financing.

Aarav’s latest report (2022): “Over 500,000 house churches… praise the Lord.”

Yes the world can be reached today! IF we repent of our traditions and follow ONLY the N.T. – and men are desperate as Aarav to search and obey Scripture – “I read Church Revolution Today!three times with my Bible open.”)
