Bio

Jobst and Charlotte Bittner are founders and leaders of TOS. A team of 30 leaders made up of full timers and volunteers supports them in their ministry.

When they came to Tübingen more than 20 years ago to study, they had no intention of staying on in the city. But God had other plans and when they got together with other students to pray, this brought forth a lively church ministry. Over the year they built up the ministry of TOS as it is today with all its local, national and international branches of the ministry.

It is Jobst and Charlotte’s vision to see entire cities and nations changed and transformed by the power of God’s love. At the same time it is their hearts’ desire to actively meet the needs of the individual in word and deed. Through their ministry thousands have heard the gospel over the past few years, far beyond the borders of Tübingen. 12 new churches were planted within Germany and abroad. In four countries of Latin America we have planted long term projects for street children, in Belarus and Greece we have planted successful rehabilitation programs for drug addicts. In Argentina and Bolivia, Jobst Bittner initiated national prayer movements with more than 60.000 intercessors from different churches and denominations.

The main focus of Jobst’s messages and teaching is on a radical conversion to Jesus, the transformation and sanctification of each person’s life through the power of the Holy Spirit as well as the authority of continuous prayer.

Jobst has a degree in Theology from the university of Tübingen, Charlotte has a degree in Ancient History. They have two sons and live close to Tübingen.
