Summary

Radical has launched a new initiative called Urgent—our work among the unreached of identifying and coming alongside indigenous believers who are making disciples and multiplying churches in ways that are biblically faithful and practically effective among the hardest to reach peoples and places in the world.

Let's pray that God will use Urgent for His glory, that all peoples will extol the Lord.
