The Bible is crammed with evidence of God's abiding love for the poor, deep mercy and passion for justice. There are four study booklets in the ChangeMakers! series:

  • Awake to the World - NO LONGER AVAILABLE
  • Seeing and Praying - NO LONGER AVAILABLE
  • Eyes Wide Open
  • Seeing Faith at Work

These booklets provide an opportunity to prayerfully examine this evidence and explore its implications for Christian living.

Rev Time Costello, President of Baptist Union of Australia

"ChangeMakers! is an excellent and prophetic series of studies, tackling difficult questions from life, society and global realities. It allows the Bible to challenge our values and speak powerfully to our lifestyles. Indeed, it induces change! I look forward to using this material extensively in groups."

Margaret Smith, Member of the Board of Tearfund (UK):

"Do not embark on these studies if you wish your life to remain the same. You will meet the world's poor. You will read God's Word to those of use who are rich and discover how the two, rich and poor, can impact upon each other. I thoroughly recommend you take the risk!"

Sir Cliff Richard:

"The ChangeMakers series should be handled with care by any Christians who do not want to be shaken out of complacency. They bring home to us in a relevant and practical way, the Bible's challenge to engage with a hurting world."

These studies were compiled by Steve Bradbury and Allan Harkness.

  • Steve Bradbury is the National Director of TEAR Australia.
  • Allan Harkness is currently lecturing at Trinity Theological College in Singapore.

Their acts of grace have transformed the lives of hardship and suffering of child-headed households, widows and poor farmers. In this video you will see these activities and how local churches have enthusiastically embraced the tasks of mission and development. You will hear in their music the faith that sustains their work and gives them the hope that they will indeed see God "awaken the dawn".
