"The more we receive in silent prayer, the more we can give in our active life. Silence gives us a new outlook on everything. We need silence in order to touch souls. The essential thing is not what we say, but what God says to us and through us. Jesus is always waiting for us in silence." - Mother Teresa

To take up the cross of Christ is no great action done once for all; it consists in the continual practice of small duties which are distasteful to us. -- John Henry Newman

"Life's most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?" - Martin Luther King Jr.

“Keep giving Jesus to your people, not by words, but by your example, by your being in love with Jesus, by radiating holiness and spreading his fragrance of love everywhere you go. Just keep the joy of Jesus as your strength. Be happy and at peace."

~ Mother Teresa

"Because we cannot see Christ we cannot express our love to him; but our neighbors we can always see, and we can do for them what, if we saw him, we would like to do for Christ."

 - Mother Teresa

"While women weep, as they do now, I'll fight; while children go hungry, as they do now, I'll fight; while men go to prison, in and out, in and out, as they do, I'll fight; while there is one drunkard left, while there is a poor girl upon the streets, while there remains one dark soul without the light of God, I'll fight -- I'll fight to the very end!"

- William Booth, Founder of The Salvation Army

"Like good stewards of the manifold grace of God, serve one another with whatever gift each of you has received. Whoever speaks must do so as one speaking the very words of God; whoever serves must do so with the strength that God supplies, so that God may be glorified in all things through Jesus Christ."

- 1 Peter 4:10-11a NRSV

We are thankful for the people that God gives us who make this worldwide ministry possible.  Because of giving people, the ministries of LGF are now touching 17,772 people per day around the world with the message of Christ.  It's a message of conviction mixed with God's grace that will help many grow strong in Christ and avoid the eternal consequences of sin.  We know that many give to this ministry sacrificially.  Please know today that God honors the sacrifices made for His Kingdom.

We are praying to be able to do more ministry to more people around the world as God supplies the needed resources through generous people who love God and people.  LGF is very thankful for monthly supporters, and also for those who can donate when they can.  No donation is too small and all are answers to prayer.  If you would like to help keep this ministry going strong, helping touch even more people for Christ in the days ahead, please click here and find out more about supporting LGF. 

This nation is affluent and has more than it needs. The realization that what we have is a free gift can deepen our desire to share this gift with others who cry out for help. When we bless the fruits of the harvest, let us at least realize that blessed fruits need to be shared.

- Henri J. M. Nouwen, from his book The Genesee Diary

Although it is not always socially acceptable, not always popular, we are called to the ministry of reconciliation. We have been entrusted with a specific message -- that Jesus Christ died to reconcile us to God and to each other. The two things were accomplished at the same time, in the same act of salvation ... This is our story, and we have a mandate to tell it.

- Brenda Salter McNeil, from her book A Credible Witness

LGF is user-supported and we are very thankful for monthly supporters, and also for those who can donate when they can.  No donation is too small and all are answers to prayer.  If you would like to help keep this ministry going strong, helping touch even more people for Christ in the days ahead, please click here and find out more about supporting LGF. 

 

The ministry metric that LGF pays the most attention is to the number of Bible messages listened to each month through technology.  LGF Bible messages have been listened to 41,100 times since it's founding in December of 2005, but the monthly number has grown to reach 6,226 listens for the month of October.  The reason LGF pays the most attention to this metric is because of what God's Word says:

How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!" But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?" So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.
(Rom 10:14-17 ESV)

The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn ...
    -- Isaiah 61:1-2a
