Papua New Guinea: Pray for New Believers Among ...

“The Bible teachers have been going through the Creation to Christ teaching with the students that are in the local school, and after the gospel presentation, 61 elementary students gave a profession of faith in Jesus. Some of these kids are from our village, but many are from other villages where the gospel has not been welcome. Praise the Lord!” Pray that this will open the door to other villages. Pray for missionaries to go to these other villages. Pray for these elementary students to have opportunities to grow in the Word and in their walk with the Lord.

Literacy Was God's Idea

Thank God, we have had the opportunity to learn to read and write. The proof of that is that you are currently reading our newsletter. Sadly, there are a lot of people who still do not have the ability to read and write.

What Do You Mean — Heart Language?

These past months we have been focusing our attention on heart language ministries around the world. But what do we really mean? Don’t we use our brains to reach others? Don’t we use our logical side when we discuss the work of Christ for mankind?

Celebrating the First Scriptures in Their Language!

Not every people group has the privilege of having a Bible in their language. So, when a Bible translation is completed in a new language, it is understandably a time for celebration.

I Can't Believe He Read the Whole Thing

In the first three months of having the Bible in his own language, Molesse read Genesis, Ruth, 1 and 2 Samuel, Daniel, Jonah, Malachi and the whole New Testament. And since at this point the Bible in Lolo consists of the New Testament and selected portions of the Old Testament, that was the whole thing. In three months.

Growing Pains in the Church

Anyone have kids that wake you up at night with aching knees and legs? Growing pains, we call it.

We also have kids that are waking us up at night. No, not our teens. The “middle-of-the-night-wake-up-and-pray” call is coming from our spiritual kids, the Pal church.

The Gifts of Involvement, Growth and Community

Why does God refer to missionaries as “gifts” to the church (Ephesians 4:11-12)?

When I visited Community Baptist Church in Montoursville, Pennsylvania, this summer, I found some great answers.

There are still several more lessons on the life, words and ministry of Jesus that the guys will teach before they reach the point of discussing Jesus' death and resurrection.
