Several months ago a ministry known as World Mission contacted me to help them assemble a team of Christian music artists to help with one of the most incredible ministry tools I have ever seen.
While I have always financially and prayerfully supported missionary work in Third World Countries, I have never been directly involved with mission work. And then God revealed The Treasure to me. Nothing has ever moved me so powerfully.
Manufactured on the Sea of Galilee, The Treasure is a field-tested solid-state digital audio Bible! The unit, which fits in the palm of your hand, has a built in solar panel with rechargeable batteries. It is very portable and lightweight at just 2.5? x 4? x 0.75?. Headphones and A/C adapter are optional.
The Treasure can literally go anywhere, and has been to rain forests, deserts, mountains and islands! It is practical for any country and climate.
The best part of The Treasure has nothing to do with its impressive physical attributes, but rather the content of what gets placed on its internal memory. To use layman?s terms?it is what?s under the hood that makes it so powerful. Each unit can hold more than 60 hours of audio material.
We currently have over 185 New Testaments recorded in an audio format that can be placed on The Treasures. Along with our partners we are adding new, fully recorded New Testament languages every month!
World Mission has access to around 5,000 languages. More than 200 languages have an entire New Testament available. As requests come in, more and more languages are being readied for The Treasure.
According to field studies, 70% of the world prefers a non-literate form of learning. The utter tragedy of this statistic means that more than half of the world does not have an adequate way in which to fully engage with the life transforming Word of God!
We realize the opportunity to distribute these powerful units to villages and rural areas is unlimited. In fact, we are witnessing an army of national leaders currently being empowered by this tool, enhancing their ministry efforts to unreached peoples.
Thousands are hearing the gospel for the first time, and many are coming to Christ. Each experience is unique but in most instances an oral learner will listen to The Treasure within a group of 8-12 people.
Each Treasure is used more than 2,000 hours over the duration of its lifetime. Therefore, it is safe to say that anywhere from 100 to as many as 2,000 people will hear about Christ through each Treasure!
My role with World Mission and The Treasure is to recruit, train and inspire a group of music artists who will present the ministry of The Treasure at their concerts by offering sponsorships to their audience of $38 per month.
That amount will ensure one Treasure each month is manufactured, programed and delivered into a village where the Bible has never been heard.
In return, World Mission will financially support the artist?s touring in the form of payment for each sponsorship (approx. $76/sponsorship).
Think about how much income that would generate to your ministry if you sponsored 10-15 at each concert you perform. Some of you will get even bigger responses. I will help train and support you.
If you are an artist who wants more information on this life changing concept please contact me for more details.
Jesus commanded his followers to deliver the Gospel to every person in the world. His people have not fulfilled that commandment yet.
Join us as we strive to become faithful to this challenge.
P.S. If you are not a musician but would like to sponsor a treasure monthly please let me know and I will help you make arrangements.
This sounds wonderful!
