The More You Know

Hey there! I’m Isabelle Lueddeke. I’m originally from New Jersey, and I’ve felt a clear call from the Lord to serve Him full-time in missions! Throughout my life, God has brought me to a place of full surrender—desiring to live a life set apart for His glory. My heart is to see young people, especially women, walking in freedom and joy in their identity in Christ. I also have a deep passion for worship and long to see worshipers raised up in spirit and truth, simply beholding the Lord.

I’m so thankful to Jesus for the honor and privilege it is to serve His Kingdom. Thank you for praying and being a part of this journey. God bless!

My favorite book of the Bible right now is Hebrews. It has absolutely wrecked me—in the best way—by how clearly it reveals that Jesus is the Messiah and proves His authority. It’s strengthened my faith and reminded me of the unwavering faithfulness of God.

I’ve been using the ESV for the past six months, and it’s been really helpful. It uses language that people can understand while still staying clear and faithful to the text.

The most memorable place I’ve been for missions was a closed nation in Central Asia! It was the first place I had ever gone for missions, and it was there that God revealed His heart for the lost to me. Many people there lack the freedom we have in America, and it shook my heart—bringing a deep realization of the seriousness of the Great Commission.

Something that’s truly inspired me to go after the lost is the fact that 3.2 billion people have never heard the name of Jesus. When you realize the privilege we have—to own Bibles and attend churches—it brings you to a place of heartbreak knowing that others don’t live with the same freedoms.

I completed my DTS at YWAM Lancaster in August of 2024, and it changed my life. DTS transformed me and shaped my understanding of the identity we walk in and God’s desire for His people to dwell with Him.

I will never forget how, when I was in Cambodia, the Lord gave me a picture of Him in the villages. Through this vision, God showed me how we are simply His hands and feet. We serve a Master who is already at work before we get there. His desire is for us to partner with Him in the field, but we are nothing without the Man who has already been harvesting.
