Dear Friend,
God is searching for people to step up and stand in the gap in a world where the foundation of truth is crumbling—to learn to grow deeply in their personal relationship with God, connect with the next generation in meaningful ways, and help build up the global Church.
Jesus commanded His followers to go to “all the nations” and make disciples (Matthew 28:19-20). We can’t do that effectively unless we ourselves are trained disciples and we know how to help others become disciples.
God is urgently calling us all to stand in the gap to bring hope. At Living on the Edge, we believe that God is calling us to invest in Three Pillars to uphold the truth of God’s Word and see millions of lives transformed for the Kingdom.
As you read through this 2022 Vision Update, you’ll see some of the hopeful, profoundly life-changing things God, through Living on the Edge, has done on a scale that still stuns us. You’ll also learn the goals and plans that we believe God is calling us to as we seek to build up His Kingdom in the areas of these three critical needs.
Of course, we can’t do any of this without the faithful support of generous partners like you!
Standing in the gap TOGETHER.
