Jonathan & Theresa Baldwin
Laboring for every nation to hear the love of Christ
So you have followed Jesus to the ends of the earth to preach the Gospel and then you are counted worthy to suffer for Him. You are put in prison with the possibility of living the rest of your life in that place. What will sustain you? How will you make it out with your […]
Why do we pray? Is it because we need God so desperately? Is it because without Him we really can’t go on? But does it actually matter if we pray? Does God even listen to us? In the video above I tell my own story of these wrestling’s and what I discovered early on that […]
It was a defining moment on Tuesday, October 1st when we unrolled the scroll with almost a quarter million signatures to end abortion. Afterwards, as I went up the steps of the Supreme Court looking at the massive 5ftx125ft scroll from a distance, I felt the Holy Spirit say, “Each signature is a prayer before […]

Recently, God began to speak to the leadership at IHOPKC about a “reset”. God is calling us to prioritize our call to 24/7 prayer with worship and growing together as family. In light of that, leadership has decided that this will be our last conference for the next several years. As the years have unfolded […]
Recently we hosted over 1000 Chinese leaders from the underground church in China as well as our nation at our Converge Conference. They flew in from mainland China at their own expense because they believe that God wants the message of night and day prayer to go all over China. Many of them have watched […]
For the past five years, Hope City has had our sights set on an old middle school building a few blocks away from Hope City. We have felt the constraints of our current facility, an old Boys and Girls Club. Its limited space has often forced us to turn away drug addicts that desperately need […]
