That all peoples may know Him
Don’t just tell them; show them missions

The Lottie Moon Christmas Offering video 2004, a collection of 13 short videos, is a great way to show church members of all ages the world's peoples, what Southern Baptists are doing to introduce them to Jesus and how the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering® supports that work. Preview them on the Web or the CD-ROM included in this year’s planning guides, but order the FREE VHS or DVD for best viewing on larger screens. The VHS is in stock now and the DVD will be available soon.

Ways you might use the videos:

  • spots during worship or prayer services

  • Sunday School classes or missions groups

  • video booth at a missions fair

 

Preview this year’s music video, “We Speak to Nations,” as a possible offertory for your church’s Lottie Moon in-gathering.

He brought death to his people; now he brings life

The former Muslim rebel’s eyes shone. “I learned to carry a gun at age 5. I killed my first man when I was 10. By age 16, I had robbed a bank to support the jihad. I became a bodyguard for a leading rebel commander. Then I began to have dreams — dreams about Jesus Christ. I had to know more. I disguised myself as a Christian, went to other villages and sat in the back of churches to hear about Him. Then, a Baptist pastor led me to the Lord. My life was changed! I went home and told my father. He put a gun to my head, intent on killing me. The gun jammed, and he became afraid. My family watched the change in my life. Now many of them are also believers in Jesus!” Pray for new Muslim-background believers in the Philippines to grow strong and bold in their faith in spite of persecution. Ask God to continue to give dreams and visions to those He is calling out.
