Summary

One dollar, one more person meeting with God

We are partnering with existing readers like you, to rapidly guide more believers to the presence of God through First15.

For every $1 you can give today, we can bring one more person into consistent connection with God.

That’s one, real person spending time daily in worship, reading, and prayer, because of your support. That’s a real person going into their day with love to give, because they’ve met with Love himself.

And, as our way of saying thank you for your donation of $25 or more towards this special initiative to meet our Summer Campaign, we’ll be sending you a copy of our newest printed devotional book, Grow.

Together, we can help believers all around the world wake up to the presence of God, and in unity affect the change our world so desperately needs.

It’s by God’s grace that we meet with him. May millions more know that grace because of our partnership together. Thank you!

0:41.2	If you write this I will bring my people to it. I honestly didn't
0:47.6	have a clue how to measure how God would fulfill these words but here we are
0:52.4	five years later with around 1.4 million
0:55.5	people in more than 200 countries using First 15 as their resource for spending
1:01.2	meaningful time alone with God.
1:04.0	God has a way of taking our investment,
1:07.0	taking whatever we have to give,
1:09.0	and multiplying that to a measure far greater
1:12.0	than we could ask or imagine.
1:15.3	He took five loaves and two fish and fed the 5,000.
1:20.0	He took around 40
1:23.3	a movement that would change the world.
1:25.2	He took around 40 authors spread across thousands of years
1:29.2	and inspired them to create our holy word. Today we're continuing our summer campaign asking for
1:36.4	your investment to bring the hope of God's nearness to people all around the world
