EVANGELISM

After almost ending her life after years of abuse and fear, Cathy found Jesus through an It Is Written evangelistic series in Boston. Cathy said, “But you people loved me. I’ve finally found the family I never had!”

“The methods that I learned gave me a lot of confidence.

SALT showed me the beauty of evangelism. I’ve been using my training on a Navajo Indian reservation. I am here to reach people’s hearts, to become their friend, and point them to Jesus.”

Orlando, Arizona

SALT SALT, in partnership with Southern Adventist University, is It Is Written’s evangelism training program. The program offers three distinct tracks: SALT, a for-credit semester course; Summer SALT, a one-week intensive training; and SALT 365, free online training webinars. Each program offers hands-on, practical evangelism training from experienced soul-winners.

“While I was in India, I met a father of eight who had received eye surgery at one of our clinics.

Before the surgery he had been unable to work and his family had become completely destitute. There was a gleam in his eye as he told me that the surgery he had received had changed everything: he was able to work and his children were back in school.”

John Bradshaw It Is Written Speaker/Director

Eyes for India℠ India is home to 15 million blind people. Every year, Eyes for India helps thousands of people to regain their sight through a simple cataract surgery. Next, It Is Written wants to send a Bible worker to every location where a surgery clinic is held so that each patient can hear about Jesus, who wants to give them spiritual eyesight to maximize spiritual impact.

CHILDREN

My Place With Jesus

My Place With Jesus Bible Guides Children are the future of our church and society.

It Is Written wants to help ground children in the Word of God so we created the My Place With Jesus Bible Guides. These 21 beautifully-illustrated Bible guides explain the plan of salvation, how to have a relationship with Jesus, and the major themes of the Bible. Each lesson is self-guiding and designed for children to share with their friends.
