Lack Of Biblical Literacy Is The Greatest Crisis In The Global Church.

Without a deep understanding of Scripture, believers struggle to comprehend core doctrines and principles, leading to a shaky and superficial faith that is easily swayed by cultural trends and false teachings. A lack of biblical literacy leads to moral confusion, ethical compromises, and a diminished witness of the Church in society.

But it doesn’t have to be this way.

Testimonials

“I've signed up as a Monthly Vision Partner at $100 per month and hope to do more in the future. An opportunity opened up for me to go into the Nashville Jail system. Currently I spend each Sunday with incarcerated Men at a facility here. We've had about 6 men rededicate themselves the Lord, one accepted the Lord, I’m told another guy wants to accept the Lord and will at this week’s Service. And finally, we're having a Baptism this Sunday, so far I have 6 guys signed up, hopefully more. I had been seeking the Lord for direction in regard to weekly studies, racking my brain trying to think how do I keep these guys focused and committed to moving forward in their Faith. Your video this morning was my answer. I will be telling them about Dr. Heiser and how he got me excited about the things of God. I will also share with them and get them plugged into the materials in September so that they have something more to keep them busy and learning during the week. Keep us in Prayer, I believe God has big plans for us, even outside and after incarceration."

“I have used so much of this content in my everyday conversations with other believers and especially with those who need to hear the gospel. My number one job is to clearly and prayerfully share the gospel with as many people as I can on a daily basis. I know God has a calling for me in evangelism and currently in youth ministry. The material I have learned has totally changed my understanding of God’s Word and clarified an incredible amount of discrepancies and questions. Thank you so much for the opportunity you have decided to give to those who God is preparing to receive more of Him. What an honor and privilege to be a laborer together with God!

“Thank you so much, I am so excited about all the fruit that will grow out of what you all are doing! It’s been life changing for me and I know it will be for others.”

“I’m very moved by the prospect of your global outreach now providing biblical teaching and resources to all who seek it outside of a “pay window” to participate. That’s wonderful, and I and my wife have been prompted to join you as a Vision Partner!”

“I want to thank you for the opportunity to have access to such precious courses. You may not know but you are touching hundreds and very soon, millions of lives here in West Africa. To God be the glory!”

“When I saw the video about the Vision Partner model my eyes lit up. I can do $40/month, and I will be ingesting every course on your site that I haven’t taken yet. I think this is an incredible plan that works and allows you to keep offering such great courses.”

“Dr. Heiser’s work helped me so much when I was in the depths of despair and depression. It was as if a simple black drawing on white paper became a 3D movie only more so. It was thunder in my life. I am so grateful to God so that I understand even more about the profound gift of Jesus on the cross and the glory of His resurrection, our Hope.”
