Why should we believe God and sell all that we have; to give ourselves totally to serve Him? Why should we labor in difficult places to bring the least reached language groups of people to faith in Christ and equip them to plant thriving churches of His followers at home and abroad?

Because God said… For His glory… These are reasons that will stand the test of time and experience.

Hearing God's word, believing Him, and taking action for His glory, in accordance with what He has said, is the foundation for endurance in serving Him. Action by faith.
