Ouachita Baptist student reaching nations one-by-one

One person sharing the gospel with another. It sounds simple but it can be intimidating.

Kaitlyn Norris, a student at Ouachita Baptist University in Arkadelphia, Arkansas, spent her summer doing just that.

The student missionary worked with International Mission Board missionaries in Krakow, Poland. 

Mobilizing more young adults like Norris is the focus of IMB’s REV7:9 conference to be held Dec. 29-31 in Nashville. Because the IMB estimates 108 people die every minute without Jesus, the conference theme is “Go change ____’s world.” The blank is intentionally placed in the theme to challenge 18- to 25-year-olds to think of a person or people group in need of the gospel, organizers shared at rev79.com.

One life transformed

Transform one life with the gospel.

Will you be like Kaitlyn?

She shared with Claudia and helped transform her world.

Everyone deserves to hear the gospel. GO change someone’s world. Join the last REV7:9 conference of the summer at Collegiate Week in Falls Creek, Oklahoma on Aug. 7. REV7:9 2023 dates are now open and IMB is planning tour stops now.

Book review: Tippet’s ‘Smile of God in a Hostile World’

Nobody likes being rejected. Most people fear rejection. Most of us have been rejected: by other kids at school, by a friend, parent, spouse, coworker, by life. Southern Baptist Evangelist Sammy Tippit tackles that subject in his newest book, “The Smile of God In a Hostile World.”

Study: Teens turning to parents about identity questions

When facing identity questions, teens are turning to their parents for answers. Even better, teens who are active in the Christian faith are turning first to Jesus and the Bible nearly as often as turning to their parents, the Barna Group reports.
