Keene had no church to attend in his village, so he would take a four-hour journey to another church for many years.

And in the process, he realized God was calling him to plant a church in his own village where Jesus was not known.

And thanks to the generosity of brothers and sisters like you, Radical gave Keene training

and resources that helped him plant a church in his village that now has over 150

numbers.

This year, we have the opportunity to support 10,000 gospel leaders like Keene in hard-to-reach places in the world

that need the same training and resources he received to spread the gospel in their communities.

And you can be a part of this by starting to support them today.

Through the end of the year, every gift you give will be doubled,

dollar for dollar, regardless of size. Let's make Jesus known in our neighborhoods and all

nations together. Double your impact. Give today. Visit radical.net slash make Jesus known now.

John chapter 20, verse 31.

These are written so that you may believe Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life

in His name. Wow. What a summary statement of why John wrote his gospel account. I wrote these things for this

reason, he says, so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Messiah,

the promised one, the Son of God, and not just believe, but that by believing you may have

life in his name. Like John wanted others to have life. So he wrote down this account of Jesus' life and death and

resurrection so that people would read it, hear it, and believe in Jesus. And you just think about

what's happened ever since then. Like John finished writing this gospel account under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

And 2,000 years later, we're reading it and we're learning about life in Jesus.

How many people have read the gospel of John and come to faith in Jesus.
