We believe that God accomplishes His mission on earth through His church. This means that we are not striking out on our own but that we are going as part of the body of Christ. God has graciously invited us all to be part of His mission in His world and we are inviting you to consider if God would have you be part of sending and supporting us as we go.
Our focus is especially on helping the church to hear the voice of God well by reading and receiving His Word better. Even though the majority of Christians live in the Majority World, so many of our resources are still centred in the West. So many of our brothers and sisters in Christ are longing to hear the voice of God in His Word but simply do not have the kind of opportunities that we have and so often take for granted. Not only do we have a translated Bible, easy access to printed copies, and substantial levels of literacy, there are also a host of trained pastors and leaders, books, podcasts, conferences, and so on.
For the good news of Jesus to go where Christ is least known, we need the Word of Christ to dwell richly amongst all of us. But the goal is not to transplant the western system of theological education so that the western expression of Christianity can be exported to everyone else. The goal is that every culture will hear, incorporate, and manifest the gospel in their own terms. That is a much more complicated task but it is the only way that the fulness of Christ can be fully expressed on earth.
If this is something that moves you then let’s do this together!
Our family can only do this in partnership with a community who will send and support us. Here you will find a link to our SIM page that walks you through how you can join us financially. We have one-time expenses that you can help with as well as ongoing monthly costs that keep us in full-time service overseas.
If you would like to receive regular family and ministry updates from us so that you can pray with and for us, subscribe to our mailchimp list. If God is leading you to pray in a specific way for us, for one of our kids, or for the ministry we are a part of, we would love to hear about it. Please contact us at christiane.fox@sim.org or tyler.horton@sim.org
Let’s do this together!!
