How does NTM reach a tribe?

From the jungles of South America to the tropical islands of the South Pacific, from the high plains of Mexico to the Sahara desert in Africa, from the frozen lands of Greenland to the mountainous terrain of Papua New Guinea — NTM missionaries apply this 9-step general strategy to see indigenous New Testament churches established that truly glorify God.

1. NTM analyzes a remote people group and prayerfully considers starting a ministry in a new location.

2. Missionaries move into the location, build their houses and get established.

3. They study the language and culture of the people and begin to build relationships.

4. They teach people to read and write in their own language and start health and socioeconomic programs.

5. Missionaries teach the Bible chronologically from creation to the resurrection of Christ.

6. As the Holy Spirit works, some people accept Christ as their Savior.

7. A church is established and God’s Word is translated.

8. Leaders are ordained. As the new church matures, missionary involvement decreases.

9. Tribal believers go out from the new church as missionaries.

Your prayers for NTM missionaries are reaching into the darkness and bringing God’s light to tribal peoples all around the world.
