Summer Surge 2020: Unleash God’s Word
Dear Champion of the Bible,

With less than a week left in Biblica’s Summer Surge 2020: Unleash God’s Word, matching funds are still available to double your gift!

Thanks to a generous ministry partner, every dollar you give to provide Bibles in Africa will unlock another dollar for Bible translation—up to $50,000. Your gift will provide essential resources to church planters like Pastor Aaron* in Western Niger, where Islam is the majority religion.

“Some people want to give their lives to the Lord, but they are afraid of Islam,” Pastor Aaron explains.
A former Muslim religious leader, he fully understands the roots of the persecution he and his new converts face. He used to affirm that violence himself. But since Christ came into his life, he has been following—and teaching—a new way.

Pastor Aaron uses The GodMan film to introduce people to Jesus before he teaches them from the Word. This animated story of Jesus’s life, death, and resurrection has brought many to faith. Then, he’s able to use the Biblica resource Luke Explained, specifically geared to answer the questions of Muslims about Jesus, for discipleship.

Because of the danger, Pastor Aaron’s largest audiences are around a dozen people. And in one village, a teenaged boy kept coming to the meetings to heckle him. Yet when Pastor Aaron and the other believers consistently showed him kindness, the boy accepted Christ himself!

Sharing the Gospel is not easy here, especially when Muslim leaders threaten those who attend the meetings. Sometimes they come to Pastor Aaron, too. “I tell them that it is true they have everything—money, food, and even the possibility of assassinating me,” he says calmly. “But they do not have eternal life.”

Some days, Pastor Aaron can’t afford gas for his motorbike. So he walks for miles to reach distant villages—because like you, he knows the Gospel cannot wait. Will you honor brave church planters like Pastor Aaron by helping to bring God’s Word to Africa? Will you send your gift to be matched today?
