Let’s create a “hall of fame” list of the best YouTube or Vimeo-type videos focusing on ….
-the power of prayer
-the big picture on Unreached People Groups
-introducing Islam
-church multiplication/planting movements
We’re hoping the answers to these questions will help *all* of us as we seek to mobilize, pray, and place workers. To add your “best of the best” videos to the list, just find this item on the web (if you’re reading via email, just use the link below), then add a comment with a URL. Don’t worry if your comment doesn’t show up immediately. Our spam engine automatically defers comments with more than one URL included. So we’ll have to glance at them and “approve” them,… but check back and, within a day or two, you’ll see your item listed. Thanks in advance for helping us find the best of the best !!!
The agency I work with, Pioneers, has a couple of videos meant to illustrate the process of church planting. I think the Indonesia one includes more universal elements. http://www.pioneers.org/multiply/indonesia.aspx but there’s also one from Chad http://www.pioneers.org/multiply/Chad.aspx. Some of our workers in another region have produced a short video that illustrates the reality of people groups in an engaging way; see People Groups: An Imperfect Illustration

Wycliffe’s George Cowan on Place of Prayer in missions.
I work for Heart Sounds International (HSI) and am a member of the International Council of Ethnodoxologists (ICE). Both have videos promoting missions while encouraging culturally relevant and biblically appropriate worship around the globe:

ICE: The AiM 2011 conference on contextualized arts in mission video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gea1yhwSy_s
I gues the best missions video I have seen is a mobilization video to be used in the church.

Hay there guys,
Just want to encourage you all, I am a videographer, and have a heart for missions. I am starting to see more and more guys like me with the skills get a calling to use their skill in mobilizing more into missions. When it come to missions videos one group has been my inspiration/ standard for awhile. http://www.historymakers.info with some of the most cinematic, compelling, moving, videos out there about the great omission.
Prayercast has great videos that are great for mobilization. They are also on vimeo.
This global music video featuring eight languages and 12 nations singing the same song illustrates the goal of missions — for people from every tongue and tribe to choose a relationship with Christ Jesus our Savior and praise Him for eternity.
