THE BOOK of LOVE!

    The long awaited Book of Love Project has finally come to fruition! For over a year our team has had the desire to equip ministries with a tool to effectively communicate the gospel to those involved in trafficking and sexual exploitation. With issues of worthlessness, and feeling unlovable by God being commonplace in Red-light districts across Europe, we set out with a goal to get the truth of the good news of Jesus into these places in all of the needed languages. 

After months of designing, planning, internships, and obtaining copy-write permissions, translating of supplemental content, and multi-lingual page layouts, we are finally able to hold the first three languages in our hands.

In a van packed with English, Czech,  and German Bibles,
we set out on our a tour to distribute the book and encourage ministries across Europe. Over two weeks, we hosted several events. Our team connected with seventeen different ministries and hundreds of people. We spoke about trafficking issues, Biblical justice and Biblical sexuality and true intimacy. We encouraged people to support their local red-light ministries, and equipped these ministries with over one-thousand books.

Over the course of the tour, we received great feedback about the book from the ministries who received it as well and the event attendees. We were able to connect with men who are inspired to take a stand against lust, and even women who have come out of the industry. It was great to see various ministries working in the same region coming together in unity. Several ministries are already reporting more involvement from local believers. We are excited that the Book of Love is off to a great start. 

In the coming weeks we will be printing and shipping the remaining three of our six languages (Bulgarian, Romanian, and Hungarian) and continuing to distribute the book to other ministries across Europe. We are continuing to receive requests from ministries across Europe who want to use the book as they reach out to those involved in trafficking and we are excited to finally be able to meet this need.

In the coming weeks our team will be
traveling back to Germany for a week
to teach in a Discipleship training school.

We will teach on Biblical justice, sexuality
and how to address issues of injustice by engaging in cultural transformation.

We are praying that we are able to
communicate God's heart for these issues
clearly, and in a way that inspires action.
