“And we all… are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory…”
— 2 Corinthians 3:18
At Endure International, we believe media is not the destination—it is a doorway.
We produce and distribute biblical teaching so people can hear and understand God’s Word. But our goal is not simply to reach an audience. We long to see the Word take root in people’s hearts, lead them into discipleship, and shape how they live.
Across languages, cultures, and countries, that is exactly what we are seeing. God’s Word is not simply informing minds; it is forming lives.
Stories From Our Listeners in Indonesia
In Indonesia, Anci began regularly watching Semua Kitab Suci, our Indonesian Bible program, while privately struggling with desires she knew were contrary to God’s will. As she continued listening to the systematic teaching of Scripture, the Word became increasingly personal.
She began to understand that following Christ meant more than knowing what was right—it meant surrendering her desires to God and choosing obedience even when it was difficult.
Rather than continuing to hide her struggle, she brought it honestly before the Lord.
Over time, she learned to return to Scripture when she was weak, pray when temptation came, and depend upon Christ rather than her own strength.
The desires that once controlled her began losing their hold.
She also began to see God’s correction not as rejection, but as the loving work of a Father calling her back to Himself.
Anci’s journey is not finished—and that is the beauty of her testimony.
This is discipleship: a life increasingly surrendered to Christ and renewed by His Word day after day.
In our Urdu ministry, S.N. encountered biblical teaching on forgiveness. But she did not simply agree with what she heard—she obeyed it.
Stories From Our Urdu Listeners
In our Urdu ministry, S.N. encountered biblical teaching on forgiveness. But she did not simply agree with what she heard—she obeyed it.
“The teaching on forgiveness challenged me to let go of bitterness and reconcile with a family member. By God’s grace, I chose to forgive, and our relationship has been restored. This experience has strengthened my faith and obedience to Christ.”
God’s Word moved from teaching on a screen into one of the most personal places in her life—a broken relationship. Bitterness gave way to forgiveness, and forgiveness opened the door to reconciliation.
That is the difference between receiving information and becoming a disciple. The Word begins changing how we think, respond, forgive, and love.
Testimonies From Our Arabic Speaking Listeners
In the Arabic-speaking world, N.H. shared how biblical media has become part of his ongoing spiritual growth:
“I attend your ‘Whole Bible’ sessions regularly. So far, I have completed the entire New Testament and various books from the Old Testament. Currently, I am studying Leviticus. Before starting any book, I watched the Panorama episode related to it. By God’s grace, I benefited greatly… Every day I pray and ask the Holy Spirit for wisdom and understanding. I thank the Lord who guided me to your program—you are a blessing to me and my family.”
N.H. is not simply consuming Christian media. He is systematically studying Scripture and praying daily for the Holy Spirit to give him wisdom and understanding.
This is the kind of lifelong relationship with God and His Word that we pray our media will cultivate.
More Than Viewers—Disciples
Three countries.
Three different circumstances.
One common thread:
God’s Word is taking people beyond watching to following.
One person is learning to surrender her desires to Christ. Another is allowing Scripture to replace bitterness with forgiveness. Another is developing a daily hunger to know God through His Word.
This is why our vision remains:
Distributing Biblical Media → Increasing Discipleship → Equipping Local Churches → Fostering Multiplication
Our goal is not simply a change of mind. It is a life of surrender and faith—a lifelong relationship with Jesus Christ in which His Word renews the mind, reshapes the heart, redirects our choices, and molds us day by day into the image of Christ.
“And we all… are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory…”
— 2 Corinthians 3:18
This is why we leverage media—not simply to gain viewers, but to make disciples.
Will You Pray With Us?
These testimonies remind us that only God can transform a human heart. We can produce programs, translate biblical teaching, broadcast it across borders, and faithfully follow up—but it is the Lord who uses His Word to bring conviction, surrender, healing, and new life.
Would you join us in praying that God would move with power through every program, broadcast, social media post, and follow-up conversation?
Pray that:
- many more would not simply hear God’s Word, but surrender their lives to Christ
- the hurting would discover His grace
- those in bondage would find freedom in Him
- those searching would come to know the truth,
- and believers would grow into mature disciples who reflect Christ in every area of life.
Above all, pray that through the faithful proclamation of His Word, God would continue His transforming work—restoring lives according to His purpose and molding men and women more and more into the image of Christ, their Creator and Redeemer.
Thank you for standing with us in prayer as we trust the Lord to take His Word farther than we ever could and to accomplish in every heart what only He can do.
In Christ,
Bashar Abdo
Director, Global Media Ministry
