Please, Come and Help Us
Assemblies of God article circa 1985, author unknown:
“Missionaries and national churches often have no resources to meet the growing media needs in preaching the gospel throughout their countries. So the call goes out to IMM: ‘Please, come and help us.’
“As the media ministry of the Division of Foreign Missions, International Media Ministries (IMM) provides production expertise and training to these people who have nowhere else to turn. The function of the IMM ministry is to use the electronic media to proclaim the gospel in native languages to those who have not heard and to train disciples and workers. To this end, IMM is developing a global strategy.”
Since our early days, IMM has trained locals, believing that the indigenous people could communicate the Gospel best to their own cultures. What a privilege now to look back over 40 years and see radio and television channels, satellite networks, and media ministries birthed out of training given by IMM. It’s a great expansion of the kingdom to know the work goes on whether it is legal for missionaries to be there or not.
God’s Word for Today:
“How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?” Romans 10:14
Pray with us:
Pray for regional media operations to be strong in the face of challenges.
Pray for IMM to collaborate with strategic indigenous teams to train in media and to encourage.
Pray for your own opportunities to pass on your knowledge of Jesus to those around you.
