The call to tell the world has not changed, but the way in which you can carry the message to the ends of the earth has. Media has changed the way the Gospel is being shared throughout the world. By equipping missionaries and the local church with relevant and culturally appropriate strategies and media, you can tell the story effectively and help win more to Christ.
