Dr. R. B. Ouellette
May 01, 2012
The first time we held a missions conference, I was greatly disappointed by the attendance at the Monday and Tuesday evening services. I had assumed that our people would come because I had announced the meeting and had excellent missionaries in attendance.

In 1959, God moved a young man and his family from Oklahoma to the Muslim-dominated city of Tripoli, Lebanon, to establish a Gospel-preaching church. Richard Hester wasn’t the first American missionary to go to Lebanon, but he was one of the few who would go to the Muslim area of North Lebanon.

When We Love God, He Gives Us Love for Others
Dr. Don Sisk
April 02, 2012
In writing to one of his converts, Gaius, John commended him for many things. First, John was pleased that Gaius knew the truth. If we are to be true to God, we must know the truth. In our day with so many tools available to us, there is no reason for any Christian in America to be ignorant of the Word of God. It is vital for our spiritual growth that we read, study, memorize, and meditate on the Bible.

Stephen Benefield
October 21, 2011
There is no shortage today of books on missions, and I have certainly read my share. Aside from individual missionary biographies, there are three books that I have read in recent years which stand out in my mind as some of the most challenging books I have ever read. One of them is Nothing to Win But the World.

The Joy of Missions
Finding Fulfillment in God’s Plan for Missions
Dr. Don Sisk
July 20, 2011
We often preach about the obligation of every believer to be involved in missions. It is not difficult to find a text to emphasize this truth. There is much in the Bible that demands that the Gospel be preached to every person in every generation.
