Each month we document our ministry endeavors to track the outcome of our efforts.\u00a0 While our first concern is not numbers, we do
\nconsider the greater element of our calling to be faithful in the work the Lord has given us to do.\u00a0 Whether bringing a challenge through
\nGod\u2019s Word in a formal church setting, in a home\/growth group, speaking to teens and kids, leading workshops or seminars, we are intent
\non casting vision of the Harvest and motivating those whom God is steering toward missionary service.\u00a0 These efforts are backed by many
\nhours of preparation, many hours of travel, and sometimes short nights.\u00a0 \u2026But when we hear of another people group being reached with
\nthe gospel because someone has stepped out to serve, we realize no cost is too great in going the extra mile to encourage or stimulate
\nthat one whom God will use to declare Christ to the Nations.<\/p>\n
NTM, now Ethnos360, just celebrated 75 years of faithfully taking the gospel to some of\u00a0the most remote places of the earth. In the early days of our mission, founding-father\u00a0Paul Fleming made a statement that remains our objective to this day. Paul said \u201cBy\u00a0unflinching determination we will hazard our lives and gamble all for Christ until we\u00a0have reached the last tribe regardless where that tribe might be.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Today, Ethnos360 is comprised of more than 3,000 missionaries serving among 348\u00a0people groups.\u00a0 There is another 700+ candidates in training who will join us in carrying\u00a0forth the vision of establishing thriving churches for every people.\u00a0 Currently, 1,200\u00a0churches have been established with 116 Bible translations in progress.<\/p>\n While our numbers aren\u2019t off the charts we must reckon with the fact that it sometimes\u00a0takes anywhere from 2-5 years for a team to be established and fluent in the language\u00a0and culture of the people before engaging Bible teaching among them.\u00a0 Therefore, we\u00a0are grateful for each missionary who has dedicated themselves to the purpose of taking\u00a0the gospel where no man has gone before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Each month we document our ministry endeavors to track the outcome of our efforts.\u00a0 While our first concern is not numbers, we do consider the greater element of our calling to be faithful in the work the Lord has given us to do.\u00a0 Whether bringing a challenge through God\u2019s Word in a formal church setting, […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":276,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[448],"class_list":{"0":"post-295","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-uncategorized","7":"tag-ethnos360","8":"entry"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-hilt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/295","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-hilt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-hilt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-hilt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/276"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-hilt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=295"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-hilt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/295\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-hilt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=295"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-hilt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=295"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-hilt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=295"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
