Novo Novo is sent to SPARK and SUSTAIN gospel movements among the nations. Novo is a Latin word that means to make new.

We are ordinary people: awakened by the Holy Spirit, equipped to multiply new disciples of Jesus, and compelled by God to reach the harvest. Our name is a powerful statement about the aim of our partnership with God’s work in the world—the redemption of people everywhere. We long to see men, women, and children made new in the image of Jesus. Our name also describes how we go about this redemptive mission. We are innovators, artists, risk-takers, and catalysts. We believe creativity is critical to sparking and sustaining the gospel movements we long to see.

"I don't want you to serve Jesus for years out of a false identity, believing lies, or feeling like you're not enough." ~ Amber

In this testimony from , Amber opens up about the trap of striving: trying to be the perfect mom, do all the ministry, and tie her self-worth to productivity instead of God’s love.

Real freedom came when she realized that her worth isn't based on what she produces—and that true healing starts by unlearning the lie that we aren't enough.

"There is always more healing that the Lord has for us. Your healing journey needs to start now."

"My house shall be a house of prayer for all nations." 🏛️🙏🏾

Author/Speaker Karl Martin reminded us at that God’s passion has always been making His presence accessible to everyone. And it’s that very presence that propels us out into mission!

How does shifting your focus from "mission first" to "presence first" change how you approach ministry?

No resumes. No titles. Nobody knew who was in vocational ministry or who was in the marketplace.

When we all wear the same team jersey—Jesus—comparison and competition are stripped away and we’re freed to just be who God created us to be.

"It felt so much like the Kingdom of God to me." — Mark Thrash, Novo President

Watch this powerful takeaway from on what true looks like in action.

When we reduce mission to numbers, we lose the heart of the Gospel. Jesus didn't call us to reach "metrics"—He called us to love real people.

The "harvest" isn't a faceless crowd. It’s Alma, the neighbor struggling to get by. It’s DJ, the cop. It’s Bryan, who’s terrified of what comes after death. It’s Jill, who stepped away from church because she was hurt. It’s the people right in your neighborhood, your office, and your family.

When we learn their names, hear their stories, and walk alongside them in their messes, love becomes tangible. God is compelled by love for individuals—and so should we be.

Here are three core convictions Adam Penketh, director of Novo Europe Collective, shared for seeing gospel movements take root:

⚔️ 1. Fight for Unity
A house divided against itself cannot stand—but a united family, operating in their unique callings and gifts, can plunder the gates of hell. Kingdom impact requires us to stand side-by-side.

🔥 2. Worship as Spiritual Warfare
Strategy is great, but our main strategy must always be: "Holy Spirit, move!" When we are unwilling to take another step without the fire and presence of God, worship becomes a landing strip for His power to flow.

🌱 3. Humility Trumps Anointing
True multiplication requires radical humility. God’s Kingdom is bigger than any single church, organization, or leader. Collaboration means holding our own platforms loosely so that Christ's Kingdom can be built together.

What if the best thing that could happen to your daily routine is for God to interrupt it?

Too often, we rush through life trying to control everything in our own strength, relying on our own rationale and competency. But when we stop striving and let God speak, He gives us divine encouragement, radical generosity, and timely words for the poor, the needy, the anxious, and the broken.

When you live led by revelation rather than rationale, it completely ruins you for any ordinary way of doing life or mission.

It’s easy to get focused on the methods, the strategies, and the work itself. But as Scripture reminds us, the ultimate aim of missions is worship—to bring God the glory He truly deserves.

Psalm 22:27 tells us, "All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations shall worship before you." And Psalm 67 declares, "Let the nations be glad and sing for joy."

Charles Spurgeon captured this heart perfectly when he said, "Adoration must exceed activity." Our service to God must always spring from a deep, abiding love for Him. When worship is our foundation, ministry stops being a burden and becomes a joyful overflow of His presence.

Watch this quick snippet from and reflect today: How can you ensure your adoration for God stays ahead of your daily activity?

In a culture obsessed with metrics, success, and quick outcomes, it’s easy to carry that same mindset into our relationship with God. But God isn't asking you to carry the weight of the results. He alone is responsible for producing the fruit—your only calling is to maintain a posture of obedience.

As the apostle Paul wrote, we are compelled by the love of Christ. When we grasp the magnitude of what Jesus did on the cross, our response isn't about striving for success; it's about surrendering our lives to Him and sharing that love with others.
He handles the outcome. We focus on the obedience.

What if the most important part of Moses’ story wasn't the burning bush, but the moment he took off his shoes?

How far can you actually run in a desert with no sandals? You can’t.

Taking off your shoes stops you in your tracks—forcing you to stop running, be present, and recognize the presence of God right where you are.

God wants to speak to you. He wants to align your life with His purpose and fill you with His power. But so many of us shortchange His presence because we’re too busy, too rushed, and constantly moving on to the next thing.

Psalm 46 tells us to "Be still and know that I am God." But ask yourself today: Are you sitting still long enough to actually hear His voice?
