Into Thy Word Ministries is about Equipping Church Leaders and Pastors to better understand and apply the Bible.
This is crucial to building a personal relationship with Christ and a healthy Church for Christ's Glory. Many pastors are inadequately equipped or have lost their focus. ITW seeks to encourage and equip pastors around the world. You can partner with us, too!

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

Psalm 119:105

Do you know who we are and what we do?

When most people are asked this question, those who use our resources, "Into Thy Word" and "Discipleship Tools," they assume a large organization is behind us.

Why? Because we have more and better resources, and better platforms that the big ministries and Christian business do not have. Thus, they assume we are one of the big guys. This is humbling and flattering and a cause for concern.

We strive to produce the very best research and exegesis to make effectual biblical resources for you and for pastor s all over the world. And, have them on the best websites, social media and structures possible. And we do not charge for them! Most do not even strive for this. We work hard and do our best for God's glory. But, we are not one of the 'big guy' ministries. There are no big budgets or pockets or organizations behind us. We are a small mission organization and for over 35 years been striving for biblical excellence and "true Truth" for God glory.

We need your financial support and prayers to carry on the ministry!

Monthly Bible Study Article
The Call to Bear the Fruit of the Spirit
Jesus directly calls us the Christians, the pastors, the leaders, those who are new in the faith, those who are mature-ALL of us--to bear fruit ! We are called to a growing faith that is fed and focused on our response to Christ that motivates the flow of the Fruit of the Spirit. This effects our personality, character, and our moral and virtuous thinking and action because of God's love to and for us and our gratitude and love back to Him. We can bear, because this is God's love and work in us that flows in through His Holy Spirit and out of us to others around us--all because we have a growing personal relationship with Christ. When this is happening, we show the world that we have God's living presence in us, living in us.
(Matt. 6:10; Rom. 5:1-5; 12:1-21; 1 Cor. 12:1-14:40; Gal. 5:16-26; Eph. 4:1-6:20; 2 Peter 1:3-9).

Monthly Leadership Article

Being Loyal to Christ and His Bride

The main prostitution we should worry about as Christians is Church Leadership falling to pride, apostasy, and the ways of the world versus faithfulness to Christ!

Never think evil is just in the world and not in our local church. Gossiping in God's site is as evil as evil can be, just look up "gossip" in a concordance and see what He says about it! Pride is evil, as is leading people astray. We must know that leading a church our way and not His is evil! How we lead a church says what our real devotion and character is about, is it placating to pride, false agendas and trends or worshiping and glorifying Christ as Lord? How will your church be led?

 

Have Maturity

Maturity is to know that our need is to be in Christ, and not to be to ourselves!

Church Growth Tip and Prayer of the Week

Ideas to consider: (Romans 12:18; 14:18-19; Ephesians 4:3; Hebrews 12:14)

The leadership must be able to steer the church through rough white waters! (See our articles on Conflict Resolution, Gossip, and Hypocrisy, and Matthew 18)

The best way to deal with conflict is to combat it through love. When people know that you love them and will listen to them, it is difficult for them to be mad. Love, indeed, covers a multitude of sins! ( Proverbs 10:12 1 Peter 4:8)

Pray that your Church and Pastor take accountability seriously and each be protected and have people they are accountable to. Also, that each would cultivate and pursue healthy relationships (Gal. 6: 1-10; Eph. 5:21).

It is our VISION and call, and commitment to point the church back onto the path of making disciples. It is our passion and directive to lead Christians away from our false perceptions and into His way.

We are here to help equip and encourage you to grow deeper in your walk with Christ and impact others around you!
