...definetely not!
Was founded 1960...they have with the songs composed etc. also quite an ipact on the "mainstream churches"
A dear friend of mine was with YWAM in Albania for 6 months in the 90ies, if I remember correctly.Some of his accounts sound like straight from a "TF-pioneer-team"...however, he had quite some bad memories too, the way leadership was organised & handled the various problems.Also the way there, via Italy, with quite an old bus sounded like deja vu...in TF
My opinion is, that it pays quite a bit ...post-TF...to get to know a bit the religious/christian landscape...who is who, what are their dogmas, hangups etc...it truly helped me to find my niche.
