Welcome to Igniting Hope Ministries

Igniting Faith in 40 Days

This life-changing book is short in length but powerful in effect. Igniting Faith in 40 Days is a great personal devotional and group study. It has been a key for many churches and small groups to go to the next level by having their faith and hope ignited like never before. 

Let's Just Laugh At That!

"Let’s Just Laugh at That! is the appropriate title for the latest book from Steve Backlund. In it, he trains believers to take on the mind of Christ and see the devil’s lies from God’s perspective. I love Steve’s continual efforts to bring encouragement and strength to the body of Christ. This book is sure to be a source of great refreshing."

Bill Johnson, Senior Pastor of Bethel Church

Possessing Joy

In His presence is fullness of joy (Psalm 16:11). Joy is to increase as we go deeper in our relationship with God. Religious tradition, however, has devalued the role that gladness and laughter have for personal victory and kingdom advancement. His presence may not always produce joy; but if we never or rarely have fullness of joy, we must reevaluate our concept of God. 

Igniting Hope Ministries is dedicated to ignite hope and personal victory in individuals, leaders and churches through a revelation of God's goodness in Jesus Christ. Igniting Hope founders Steve and Wendy Backlund are authors, revivalists, teachers, and church strategists. They have a unique anointing to release hope and joy and a revelatory teaching gift that creates new wineskins for greater dimensions of God (both personally and corporately).
