A case for Christian elementary and secondary schools
I am truly amazed at the excellence of many of our Christian colleges and universities. I serve as a trustee of Union University in Jackson, TN, and we have remarkable students and a first-class faculty to train them. We send out graduates who will elevate the professionalism in their respective fields, and will transform the world with the message of the Gospel.

Who's Missing? Whose Mission?
IMB's 2009 theme is "Who's Missing? Whose Mission?" focusing on those still missing from God's family and our Great Commission call to reach them. Even after 2,000 years of Christian influence, more than 1.5 billion people are still missing out on the opportunity to hear the Gospel. Many of the world's people missing from God's family live in concentrated pockets of lostness. About 80 unreached people groups still have no contact with the outside world.

Marriage in the Midst
Selma and I were married seven years before our first child was born. I thought I knew my wife, but when children entered the picture, I realized there was a lot more “marrying” to be done.
Scripture says our children are a reward (Ps. 127), and ours have been a blessing. But the truth remains: Parenting presents challenges and opportunities for growth in the strongest marriage.

Missionary Focus: Setting the Captives Free
It was the last place anyone expected a revival to begin. Travel to what was once one of the toughest prisons in America and see how God is using Robert Toney, a Southern Baptist chaplain, to help turn convicts into converts. Setting the Captives Free is the latest in a series of 16 Missionary Focus videos and accompanying articles produced by NAMB over the past year and a half. The videos are short enough to be used during worship services for a missions emphasis or sermon illustration.
