God Is Moving: A Thank You and Ministry Update

“I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth.” — 1 Corinthians 3:6
Over the past several months, God has opened doors for Bible Outposts and Simple Discipleship to share a simple message in multiple nations. We have been blessed to spend time in Ecuador, Guatemala, Brazil, Colombia, and London, meeting pastors, church leaders, educators, and believers who share a common desire—to see people engage deeply with God’s Word and grow as disciples of Jesus Christ.
Wherever we traveled, the message remained the same:
Read. Listen. Share.
Read God’s Word consistently.
Listen to the Holy Spirit.
Share what God is teaching you with others.
This simple approach continues to change lives. We’ve seen people discover a renewed hunger for Scripture, experience deeper fellowship, and begin discipling others in natural, reproducible ways. As we often say at Simple Discipleship, this is not about creating another program—it’s about helping people encounter God through His Word and community.
One verse that continues to encourage us is:
“You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” — Jeremiah 29:13
Across every country we visited, we witnessed people seeking God with sincere hearts. We heard stories of spiritual growth, families engaging Scripture together, and new groups beginning to meet around the simple practice of reading, listening, and sharing.
We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to Juan Carlos Bixul, Fred Garmon, and Luis B. for their tremendous support, encouragement, and planning efforts. Much of what was accomplished on these trips would not have been possible without their servant leadership and commitment to the mission. Their partnership has been a tremendous blessing.
We are also thankful for Blake Sutton and Danny Bell, who joined us on portions of these journeys. Their friendship, ministry, and willingness to serve strengthened the work and encouraged many people along the way. Traveling together reminded us once again that ministry is most effective when we serve side by side.
As we look ahead, we are preparing for another exciting school year at Desoto Christian Academy. We are praying for students, families, faculty, and staff as we continue our mission of helping young people grow academically, spiritually, and personally. We believe the next generation is not merely the future of the Church—they are an important part of God’s work today.
Looking forward, we are especially excited about the development of The Ambassador Program. This initiative will provide students with opportunities to participate in international mission experiences, exposing them to God’s work around the world while helping them develop a heart for discipleship, leadership, and service. More details will be shared in the coming months, but we believe these experiences will have a lasting impact on the lives of students and the communities they serve.
Thank you to everyone who prays, gives, encourages, and partners with Bible Outposts and Simple Discipleship. Your support allows us to continue sharing a simple, reproducible pathway to spiritual growth with people around the world.
Please continue praying that God would raise up more disciple-makers and that many would discover the life-changing power of His Word.
Together, we will continue to Read. Listen. Share.
