Pioneering Online Bible School
Senior Minister Colin Dye has launched a pioneering online Bible school for the converts from Islam in Central Asia and Caucasus. The Bible school is using Colin’s Sword of the Spirit video series which has been translated into Russian as a study material, and it includes live interactive teaching sessions where believers in the region can find answers to difficult questions.
The first module taught over four weekends focused on The Rule of God, volume 3 in the 12-part series. It was launched with the help our or ministry partners in the region.
The mission work in the region is extremely challenging, as Christians in many parts of this predominantly Islamic region, which was formerly part of the Soviet Union, suffer from persecution. In many countries in the region, meetings with more than a handful of people need a permit, but asking for a permit can often expose converts to danger.
The online Bible school brings together students scattered in different parts of the region, but it has many challenges, especially as there are many connection issues, including low bandwidth in the more remote villages. Some students missed the live interactive teaching part during the first series because a storm had cut their internet and electricity.
Please pray for the believers in Central Asia and Caucasus, as the cultural impact of communism still lingers on, and conversion to Christianity often brings persecution. Also, please pray for us and for our ministry partners, as we seek to develop our work in the region.

He did not commend the warriors or the rulers, the powerful or the leaders, instead he said: ‘How fortunate are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God’.
Rejuvenated in God
Have you noticed in life things get old and wear out? Your jeans, your shoes, your car. We sometimes push them to their very limit, squeezing that very last mile out of them; one might even say we run them into the ground.

Meekness
[2 minute read] Every day, battles rage as nations or people groups try to establish supremacy over parts of the earth. Most people believe that ‘might’ will triumph over ‘right’ in the end, but Jesus suggests something different:
