If you haven’t yet had a chance to visit the new Langham Partnership website, take a minute to visit today! The design incorporates our new name and logo to create a collaborative, user-friendly resource for information about Langham worldwide. Be sure to visit often to be blessed by items such as the Daily Bible Study and the latest news and stories.
Even as the Langham Preaching movement expands to places like Togo, we invite your prayers for continued growth in places like the Central African Republic and Congo Brazzaville. These are very different cultural contexts, but the need is identical – faithful and relevant preaching by pastors, lay people and evangelists. We give thanks to God – and how He uses you to accomplish His purpose – for His continued blessing to grow the ministry worldwide. Please pray for this new work, that His Word would be planted in the hearts and minds of many for His glory.
Thankful to God for you,
Benjamin K. Homan
President, Langham Partnership
