Day 15 Russia

DAY 15:

WHAT IF? You can change the lives of five people by placing just one Bible—will you help?

It costs just $7 to place one Bible into the hands of a Bible-less Christian. This Bible not only impacts one person’s life—it impacts at least five lives as each Bible is shared on average with five other people.

When Christians do not have the Bible, “they have no root” and “they do not mature”. When Christians have God’s Word and read it with open and teachable hearts, they “produce a crop”—grow in their faith, develop fruits of the Spirit and share the Good News with others.

See the verse below.

Luke 8:11-15

“The seed is the word of God. Those along the path are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. Those on the rock are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away. The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life's worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature. But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.”


Will you help believers produce a crop by placing God’s Word into their hands?
