We are very encouraged by the progress God has granted to our 2020-2022 Visual Story Network goals to equip our generation to use media, story and innovation to make disciples of least-reached nations!
2020-2022 Visual Story Network Goals & Progress Update
I. Train 10,000 leaders to use media, story and innovation to make disciples of all nations.
Update: 3,362 leaders like have been trained. We are not on pace with our faith goal, but we’re 37% above our training capacity from the two prior years.
II. Help expand the number of teams using social media for disciple-making movements from 25 to 250 worldwide.
Update: There are more than 200 teams worldwide seeking to implement this strategy! This strategy is showing signs of being one of the biggest breakthroughs in recent mission history.
III. Train 500 new global female religious freedom advocates in countries where believers experience opposition and persecution.
Update: 516 women have been trained! By His grace, we have already surpassed this goal and will train many more women leaders!
To fulfill these goals in 2022, we are trusting God for $100,000 above normal giving.
Here is our 2020-2022 Vision Plan.
