Paul Washer
Paul Washer became a believer while studying at the University of Texas. He completed his undergraduate studies and enrolled at Southwestern Theological Seminary, where he received his Master of Divinity degree. After graduating, he moved to Peru and served there as a missionary.
Paul ministered as a missionary in Peru for 10 years, during which time he founded the HeartCry Missionary Society to support Peruvian church planters. HeartCry's work now supports over 165 indigenous missionaries in over 26 countries throughout Eastern Europe, South America, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East.
Paul now serves as one of the laborers with the HeartCry Missionary Society (www.heartcrymissionary.com). He and his wife Charo have three children: Ian, Evan, and Rowan.
“Men and women who are used of GOD, if I had only a few words to describe them, they are the passionate-weak, they are the violently-desperate.”
“Everywhere......everyone you meet....is a potential brother or sister in CHRIST.”
“Las misiones no son un cuerpo de paz, sino la proclamación fiel del evangelio.”
“People tell me judge not lest ye be judged. I always tell them, twist not scripture lest ye be like satan.”
“Why would we want fame, when God promises us glory? Why would we be seeking the wealth of the world when the wealth of heaven is ours? Why would we run for a crown that will perish with time, when we're called to win a crown that is imperishable?”
“Idolatry is when you become the source of your own joy. Poverty of spirit is a wonderful thing.”
“There is no such thing as a great man of God, only weak, pitiful, faithless men of a great and merciful God.”
“I used to tell young preachers, in order to preach you've got to have the power of God on your life. Now I tell them, in order to tie your shoes you've got to have the power of God on your life.”
