Loren Cunningham (1935-2023) was the founder of Youth With A Mission (YWAM), a missions organization with nearly twenty thousand full-time staff of more than 150 nationalities and from a wide variety of denominations. Loren ministered in every sovereign nation and dependent country in the world as well as in scores of territories and islands. The Book That Transforms Nations draws on a lifetime of observing the nations as they change and a lifelong pursuit of hearing God's word for the nations. Loren and his wife, Darlene, lived in Kona, Hawaii. Together they served in leadership capacities in YWAM and YWAM's University of the Nations. They have two grown children and three grandchildren.
