“So is my word that goes out from my mouth. It shall not return to me empty.” Isaiah 55:11
Blessed by God’s Word
What a blessing it is to be able to share God’s Word, clearly explained in The Preacher’s Outline & Sermon Bible®. LMW receives requests from pastors around the world for these books which help them understand and clearly articulate God’s Word, growing His Kingdom.
This week, more than 8,000 volumes were shipped to the Theological Book Network, who will distribute them to pastors in India, Brazil, the UAE, Russia – and other places where there is a great need for quality biblical resources.
Your support makes it possible for LMW to equip pastors for gospel-centered ministry worldwide. Please pray for the Theological Book Network, and for the pastors who will be receiving these resources.

Pray for Pastors in Romania

Romanian pastors receive new resources
Blessed by God’s Word
“All Scripture is breathed out by God and is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.”
2 Timothy 3:16-17.
What a blessing it is to have God’s Word readily accessible – on computers, tablets, phones – and in printed Bibles, commentaries, etc. Many pastors around the world have only one well-used Bible, the pages time-worn, the bindings coming loose. Pastors in Romania recently received training from Pastor Bob Patty of Chattanooga (center right, stripe shirt) – who also gave them 1 & 2 Corinthians Preacher’s Outline & Sermon Bible® AND “What the Bible Says to the Minister” in their native language – for FREE.
These gifts were met with an outpouring of love and appreciation from the Romanian Pastors: “It was a joy to be together with brother Bob and hear him talk on 1 and 2 Corinthians.” “Thank you so much for the books. We are eagerly awaiting other volumes.” “People are perishing for lack of knowledge. Thank you for the sacrifice you make.”
We invite you to pray for pastors across Romania who are serving God in large cities and across the rural landscape. May His Word encourage their hearts.

Changed Lives

By

“One of my greatest joys in ministry is seeing the response to the Gospel in the face of hardship, persecution and terrorism, especially in Jos, Nigeria.”
-Pastor David Adegboye, Nigeria

David Adegboye’s life changed when he accepted Christ as a young engineering student in 1974. As he grew in faith, he received a call into ministry, serving as a bi-vocational pastor for nine years before he became a full time pastor. Over his years in ministry he rejoiced to see the power of the gospel to change lives, especially among people who are persecuted for their faith. However, he has also seen the proliferation of the prosperity gospel throughout Africa, which has strengthened his resolve to empower pastors to preach the sincere Word of God.

Today he serves as a mentor and teacher, establishing others in the faith, just as he was discipled through the years, working in Nigeria and throughout Africa with Timothy Olonade, Vice President of International Training for LMW. He is an avid fan of LMW’s free online library and training platform, Lystra Global.

“Lystra Global came to us at the right time, and such a joy for us that we can have access to an all-in-one material that integrates Bible dictionaries, commentaries, and the Bible itself as a ready to use material. The materials are faithful to the scripture. . . I often wonder how I managed before Lystra Global emerged. Access to Bible tools has been a scarce commodity for us especially in a developing world. The cost and availability of The Preacher’s Outline & Sermon Bible® for us have been bridged in Lystra Global.”

Pastor Adegboye uses Lystra Global as he trains pastors for preaching and teaching God’s Word. The pastors he trains are able to grow in their knowledge and confidence as they study and learn more about God’s Word. The free seminary curriculum available from Third Millennium through Lystra Global also contributes to their understanding and fulfillment of the call to serve God in ministry.

God is at work in Africa as dedicated pastors like David Adegboye preach, teach, and disciple young believers and pastors in their walk of faith. With a strong foundation in God’s Word, these pastors are able to share the gospel of Jesus Christ confidently, faithfully, and accurately.
