Books That Build the Church: How Christian Book International Outreach Is Resourcing Pastors Worldwide | E37
In this compelling episode, host Leanne White speaks with Daniel Henderson and Craig Stoll of Christian Book International Outreach about their mission to place essential theological resources in the hands of pastors and church leaders worldwide.
Craig shares how a visit to a poorly-stocked Bible college library in India inspired him to begin donating books—an effort that has grown into a global nonprofit providing Bibles, study resources, and theological materials to over 100 countries. Daniel brings his own story of founding a French Christian publishing house and discovering the vast need across the French-speaking and Asian worlds.
Together, they reveal the reality that for many pastors globally, the cost of a single Bible equals a month's salary, making access to quality theological resources impossible. Hear inspiring stories including a Madagascar pastor who became a theological student using CIO's curated book sets, and discover how CIO carefully selects resources to fill the void left when prosperity gospel theology dominates contexts lacking good theological instruction.
This episode showcases the power of equipping leaders with the tools needed to shepherd their flocks faithfully.
