About the Speaker:
Open Cry Heaven is a movement that unites pursuers of Jesus who are solely focused on calling Heaven down and bringing revival into reality in our cities through hunger in worship, fervent prayer, and radical love.
Its director, Pastor Ben Lim, is a young man with a heart after God. He is the lead pastor of His Way Life, a grass-root church in the inner-city of Koreatown, Los Angeles, which was founded upon radical faith; to save the lost and get Father’s house full (Luke 14). He serves as the director of Open Heaven Cry, a traveling ministry focused on uniting the Church and awakening the Body of Christ into the Lord’s revival. And he is also serving as an English radio host on KGBC (Korean Gospel Broadcasting Channel AM 1190), a radio station based in Los Angeles and is currently a writer for the English column of Christian Herald U.S.A.
Ben was born and raised into a Christian pastor’s family, but growing up wasn’t the easiest thing. Growing up in a broken family, he found himself lost and settling in and out of drugs and violence. He had no sense of identity, until that one day when the powerful prayers of his parents broke him through. He recalls that it was a miracle that the Lord had spared him.
He found himself in the Lord once again in Australia, after graduating high school, in an overseas Discipleship program with the missions organization, “YWAM (Youth With a Mission)”. Being undoubtedly delivered from the kingdom of darkness, he continued to pursue the Lord whole-heartily with no turning back, desiring to only love and obey his Savior. This once drug dealer had turned and become a man of God. The world knew it.
Since his transformation, he has so far, fearlessly ministered in thirteen different nations, in the ministry of the Holy Spirit, preaching the redeeming message of the cross and the identity as a son of God. He desires to go where it is the toughest and the hardest. For about two years, he’s worked alongside a church-planting movement, focused on the Muslims in the Southeast Asia region. His heart beats to see the nations discipled, restored, and empowered to its fullest, according to God’s original design and desire revealed in His Word.
His calling is to live in the mandate of restored relationship between the, “fathers and sons” (Malachi 4:6), walking hand in hand, step by step, together as one, as the true regenerated family of God; uniting the global church, trusting in His promises and taking the promised land by grace through faith. He desires to see the mountain of arts and media, retaken for the Lord, especially in the Hollywood area of Los Angeles, the city of the messengers. He is confident that he will see his generation, holy unto the Lord, with a heart to see the face of God.
