Global Impact
In a slum in Nairobi, Kenya, a young boy holds up a well-worn copy of The Story of Jesus, a colorful booklet that presents the gospel to children in engaging, age-appropriate ways and shows them how to share the gospel with others.
“It has really made a difference in my family,” he tells his teacher who gave him the book.
The boy goes on to tell the story of how his entire family was led to Jesus by his eight-year-old brother, who used the book to share the powerful, winsome gospel of Jesus Christ with his siblings and even his alcoholic father.
“Now that my father knows Jesus, he doesn’t drink anymore. Our home is peaceful. And now we have more money for food, and I get to go to school again because we can afford the school fees,” he said.
“What you are teaching about God’s provision is true. God is good—and He gives us what we need.”
The World Needs Jesus
There’s no doubt, we are living in challenging times. Whether these challenges are economic, political, social, cultural, or familial, the Church is needed now more than ever. Christians around the world face unprecedented opposition for following Jesus.
Sifting through the overabundance of information available from unvetted sources makes finding tools for evangelism and discipleship a challenge in itself, especially in impoverished, religiously restricted, or remote regions of the world.

Change a child’s life for eternity
In a village in a part of India, where believers are at risk of persecution and even personal harm, 14-year-old Prisha is learning to trust God through all the challenges of life in this part of the world. She learned this important faith lesson in a Life on Life class at her small local church.
Recently we’ve been learning about Joshua and the responsibility he had after Moses died. He had great responsibilities, and with that he also was afraid and scared somewhere deep down. The thing I learned was even when there are problems, you have to believe on God and hold on to God, because there might be problems, but God is bigger than your problems.”
