The Power of the Printed Page
The invention of the Printing Press played a key role in mobilising the Reformation. Reformer Dr. Martin Luther recognised the power of printing to mobilise grassroots support for Reformation. Dr. Luther wrote prolifically - more than 400 titles, 60,000 pages of published work, including commentaries, sermons and pamphlets that attacked Roman superstitions and abuses, and which promoted Biblical doctrines.
A Drop of Ink Can Make a Million Think
Just in the 3 critical years after Martin Luther posted the 95 Theses in Wittenberg, from 1517 to 1520, Martin Luther published 30 pamphlets and flooded Germany with 400,000 copies. By 1523, half of all the printed works in Germany were Luther's works. At the Reformation Museum in Geneva I saw a sign on a printing press: The Printing Press - The Reformers friend, the tyrants’ foe!

Digital Revolution
Today a digital revolution is taking place that Missionaries can use to reach the unreached and serve the persecuted church, even in the most remote and restricted access areas of the world. Today there are over 2 billion smartphones worldwide capable of internet access.
Let the Earth Hear His Voice
Gospel Recordings Network (GRN) has, since 1939, produced Gospel recordings in over 6,000 languages. Many of these are of the least reached language groups of the world. Now they are able to make these Gospel recordings available through Micro SD cards, which are memory card expansions for small electronic devices, such as cell phones. SD cards are also used in smaller cameras, digital recorders and other electronic devices. 800 million people in China have access to the internet through which they can download Gospel messages from www.globalrecordings.net. Bedouin Arabs in the Sahara are also able to access Gospel presentations through their smartphones.

Faith Comes by Hearing the Word of God
From the very first Frontline Fellowship Mission across the border, into Mozambique in 1982, we were carrying Bibles, New Testaments, World Missionary Press Gospel booklets and Gospel Recordings hand-wound 78RPM records, in the local languages. Over the years the technology has developed from Card Talks to hand-wound record players, to the hand-cranked and solar powered Gospel Messenger cassette tape recorders, to MP3 players, MegaVoice audio Bibles and other solar panel powered audio and video God's Story Messengers and Proclaimers to reach and teach those who cannot read and write.
Compact Digital Libraries
Now our Missionaries and couriers are carrying entire digital libraries with Evangelism and Discipleship resources on CD, MP3, and DVD discs and on SD cards to provide libraries for pastors and resources to empower Evangelists in some of the most remote and restricted parts of the 10-40 Window.
Serving the Persecuted
For those serving in restricted access areas, there is stealth technology available, which can hide Bibles and films on people's smartphones, androids, tablets and computers, buried beneath layers of security codes. Digital libraries and Bibles can be transferred to the smartphones of contacts, pastors, teachers, chaplains, medics and Evangelists in the field from our own phones, via flash drives, or SD cards. It is extraordinary how much can fit on even a 4GB SD card!
Bible App
You can also make known to your contacts worldwide that anyone with an android, tablet and smartphone can use the Bible App to access and download the Bible in many languages.
Online Bibles
Those who only have access to the internet can access Bibles and Bible study materials in various languages through: www.YouVersion.com and www.Bible.com. Parallel versions of the Bible can be found at www.InScript.org.
Digital Libraries for the Mission Field
Missionary Aviation Fellowship makes available numerous digital library resources through Estante.

An Hour of Prayer by Phillip Kayser
If you have struggled with the idea of praying for extended periods of time, it may simply be that you have never had extended prayer modeled to you.
Just as John the Baptist and Jesus modeled to others on how to pray (Luke 11:1), hopefully this booklet will spark some ideas for your own prayer life.
It is designed to expose you to twelve quite distinct kinds of prayer, and to show how easy it is to spend an hour in prayer.

Bibles for Africa
It may surprise you to know that 100 million church-goers in Africa still do not have their own copy of the Bible. Frequently we have heard people say: "I have never had a Bible before!" "I have been praying for years for this!" "This is the greatest gift that anyone could ever ask for, the Word of God in my own language!" There are 24 countries in Africa where English is the official language, so English Bibles and books can go a long way in empowering churches in Africa.

"For the Word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart." Hebrews 4:12
