coMission 24:14

When Christ's disciples inquired about the signs of His coming Kingdom, Jesus had a lot to say, including this:
And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. (Matthew 24:14)

An increasing number of people are realizing that this prophecy, for the first time in human history, can possibly be fulfilled within our lifetime. And, some are feeling compelled to do something about it. Since the mission of our organizations is closely aligned with Christ's prophetic declaration, we are inviting those who are so inclined to join us in the following four initiatives.

GIVING: The gifts you give to the Digital Bible Society are more important than ever. As we grow and continue to expand our efforts to share the Gospel, we depend increasingly on the financial support of fellow believers, not only to purchase SD-chips, DVDs, projectors, and other media for scripture distribution, but to employ our team as they continue to develop tools to make God’s Word accessible in every language.

PRAYER: Our ministry was founded upon and thrives on the prayers of people like yourself. We are hosting monthly prayer meetings where people call in and join us with virtual prayer, and we would like to invite you to join us. If you have a heart for missions, God's Word and making disciples, or, if you are a person committed to prayer, we invite you to join us through mail or monthly online prayer gatherings.

SHARING: People around the world are carrying libraries in multiple languages that can be shared or copied to a users device. Perhaps you do short or long term missions, or you may work with people from differnet nationalities. We invite you to become one who freely shares Scritpures and Bible resources with those you meet or know.

VOLUNTEERING: We have initiated a number of volunteer programs that will assist us in recovering lost-language Bibles. We also are in need of volunteers who will help us find the Bibles of the world for the Find-A-Bible project.

If you are intrested in learning how you play a role in the fullfilment of Mathew 24:14, we invite you to join with others of like passion in coMission 24:14 and contact us!

Our Philosophy of Fundraising and Stewardship

God created the world, and everything in it for the express purpose of His pleasure and glory. (Psa 24:1).

God created man in his own image… and God blessed them. And God said to them, 'Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.' (Gen 1:27–28)

God specifically created us to rule over and improve upon the work He began in creation. He created man for relationship, stewardship, and fruitfulness. We believe that within these three purposes: relationship, stewardship, and fruitfulness, all our fundraising should be conducted and measured with the Bible as our standard.

Relationship:

Because God created man for relationship, our fundraising must endeavour to:

• be relational by offering donors the opportunity to invest in something that will outlive them without resorting to manipulation, gimmicks or demands.
• enable donors to invest in specific projects and programs that matter to them.

Stewardship:

Because God created man for stewardship, our ministry must seek to be

• be accountable to strict and truthful accounting and report to officers, partners, donors and government agencies,
• be transparent with our spending, policies, and practices with our partners, employees, and donors,
• be circumspect with our spending, stretching each dollar to its maximum productivity.

Fruitfulness:

Because God also created man for fruitfulness, our activities must aim to:

• maximize the benefit of labors and gifts that have been given us,
• joyfully bring glory to God in a way that the end-user, donor, and worker can celebrate.
