Unleashing the Power of the Gospel through End-to-End Ministry

Pray for lives to be changed around the world through access to God’s Word

In a world hungry for hope and transformation, the message of Scripture is spreading! New doors are opening across global communities, bringing the power of God’s Word to those facing poverty, oppression, persecution, and illiteracy.

Through End-to-End ministry, unreached people are experiencing the message of Jesus for the first time in the language they think in, dream in, and pray in. The proven four-step End-to-End approach brings the message of the gospel to life. Participants are invited to (1) watch a screening of the JESUS film, (2) attend an audio Bible listening group, (3) receive a copy of God’s Word to study, and (4) join a local church.

This approach is transforming lives. Noble, from West Africa, started listening to the Bible in his language on the Proclaimer™ recording device—and then he received a printed Bible of his own. Here’s what he says:

“Before I started listening to the Proclaimer, people did not know me as someone who reads the Bible or who is serious about my Christian faith. But now, everyone is surprised by my faith in Christ and love for his Word. [Previously] I was not bold enough to identify myself as a Christian due to my environment and the people I moved with. But after listening to the Proclaimer and having my Bible to read, my life is now filled with confidence to share the love of God to everyone I come across.”

Your Prayers Matter

We rejoice in the many answered prayers from End-to-End projects, including reports of explosive program growth in 2022. Here is a summary of the incredible testimonies of impact just over the last year:

  • 804,533 Bibles and Bible portions distributed
  • 2,420,678 people viewed the Jesus Film
  • 20,945 Proclaimers and other Audio Bibles distributed
  • 380,875 new believers decided to follow Jesus
  • 32,446 new churches planted

End-to-End continues to touch lives in over 50 nations across Africa, the Americas, and Asia—so your prayers are needed! This work cannot be accomplished without God’s power. Here’s how you can pray for more lives to be reached with the message of Scripture in 2023.

5 Ways to Pray

  1. Pray for the spread of the gospel. As people encounter God’s Word through End-to-End ministry, pray that God will soften hearts to know and follow Jesus.
  2. Pray for growing discipleship. Ask for wisdom and discernment as seasoned believers guide and nurture new Christians in their faith journey.
  3. Pray for local Bible Societies. Pray for open doors as Bible Societies bring God’s Word to challenging environments, such as in schools and prisons.
  4. Pray for program needs. Pray that God would remove logistical, political, and social barriers so equipment and Scripture resources can reach places it is most needed.
  5. Pray for spiritual covering. Pray God’s protection for program staff and recipients as this program targets places disrupted by war, disease, and poverty.
