We are a ministry making a difference for the Kingdom of God...

 

 And we need your help!

 

Some concerned friends and board members urged me to share this with you…

 

 

New Funding Project!

 


 

ITW and the Schaeffer Institute are now seeking to raise funds through real estate ventures.

 

Help us rebuild our ITW Facebook group:

 


 

Please invite your FB friends to join us in "Suggest to Friends" or "Invite People to Into Thy Word" as we rebuild…

 

See our new blog

 


 

We have added hundreds of PDF files to our main site intothyword.org and discipleshiptools.org. We will be adding more "doc files" and then we will be adding them to all our sites in the coming months.

 



To build a research, training and study center and a base of operation for over ten ministries! Using a large house for the center, guests and offices (L'Abri) and an apartment complex that will be used to fund the operational costs of this mission.

Can you partner with us to make this happen?

 


 


 

Thirty Years of Legacy… Continuing the Legacy and Influence of Francis Schaeffer with New Research and Findings!


 

You can help us to provide free quality Biblical resources to over 5,000 people each day all over the world. We are teaching thousands of pastors in over 80 countries, and we are greatly under funded. Unlike other ministries, we do not charge for our materials or ask for remuneration.

We have a call to make sure our hearts are lined up with His. When they are Christ blesses us and our church.

Monthly Bible Study Article

 


 


 

Leading your heart-not letting your heart lead you!


The world tells us that to be in love and have that perfect marriage; we have to follow our heart. Is this true? Does this work? Is it biblical? Are we to really follow our heart? Does what the heart wants really what is best? Is there something we can do...

 

This is also the introduction to our summer Bible Study series on Love...

Christianity is not just the proclamation of the Gospel; it is also the example of the Gospel!

 





 


Monthly Leadership Article

 



Do you or your people struggle with your role and placement in church? Do your people feel disconnected or lost in church? Do they feel like they are unimportant or not noticed or appreciated? Do they feel they are not getting fed spiritually or challenged to grow? Do they feel they have few opportunities to exercise their gifts and call? Do you...

We Need Your Partnership! Why?

 


What happens when you support us?

 


Your gift is not only supporting us to do ministry, but you partner with us to come along side to do real ministry to other pastors too. You help those in ministry who have no means to go to higher education or receive seminary level educational resources or the means to pastor their flock effectively. A pastor in Central Asia who makes a mere $60 a month can have access to a library of solid biblical resources, sermons and studies as well as practical effectual help to lead and manage their church. You help a person who wants to be a pastor to be trained, such as how to exegete Scripture, prepare sermons and how to grow themselves and their flock in Christ. Thus, you help people like Pastor Narula to not take the limited money to feed his family and divert it to feed his church, now he can do both. You help Pastor Sanjiv to spend the time to council and help his people because we help him administer his church. You help a young man named Babu prepare to become a pastor. You help us stay in full time ministry ministering to over 10,000 pastors worldwide (this does not even include the 5,000 people who use our web resources each day!)!
