Training faithful believers worldwide to share biblical, chronological narrations to provide a solid foundation for accepting Christ as Savior and following Him in discipleship.

Project 2:2 is a non-profit Special IMpact Project of International Missions, INC (IM) located in Antioch, TN. It's twofold purpose is:

(1) to execute an effective, expandable, and easily repeatable evangelistic program using 40 chronological, biblical narrations from Creation to the Second Coming of our Lord (which are found in the book titled, The Story of God and Man (written by Steve and Carol Lyons); and, (2) to train faithful believers to train others, who in turn will be able to train others in discipleship and evangelism.

Omben and a Swahili Narration Group

A Potentially Explosive Idea!

Steve just received this message from Omben, a trained narrator in Tanzania: Greetings, grandfather. I’ve started an English class targeting unbelievers. Before starting the English lesson I share a narration. I don’t charge them anything for these classes. People are really attracted to them. Please pray for me that I’ll have even more time for ministry. Also words that I don’t know how to translate I’ll be asking for help from you. I thank you. What a fantastic idea! Just think of the evangelistic potential if this were to be done in numerous languages all over the world! Just in the United States alone, this approach for churches and community sponsored language programs would provide enormous evangelistic opportunities!

Spanish Translation Is Complete!

We will say more about this translation later, but we wanted to give thanks to the Lord for having this project completed upon our return from Africa. Please pray for us as we consider where and how to use the translation, La Historia de DIOS y el Hombre, in the future. Those doors appear to be wide open and we need wisdom from our God and Savior to determine the next step. We also want you to know that we will make a copy of this translation available to those of you who would like one as soon as possible.

Three Testimonies from Tanzania

1. A lady who came to Christ from Islam is concerned for the salvation of her father. Whenever she would try to talk about Jesus, he shuts her down. She believes that he will listen to the narrations.

2. ⁠Another lady wants her very religious, but unsaved mom, to know Jesus. When she gets her Bible out, so does her mom, and then it always deteriorates into an argument. She believes that these narrations will solve that.

3. ⁠A mom went home last night and the kids were watching a serialized story on TV. She told them, "I have a new serialize story from God’s Word. Do want to hear mine or the one on TV?" The children said they wanted to hear her biblical narrations!

PRAISE THE LORD! God is working in the hearts of His people and through these narrations to reach many who would otherwise never listen to the gospel.

We traveled half way around the world to train believes in Kitali, Kenya in order to implement Project 2:2 -- Evangelistic Narratons. So, what was the surprise when we got there? When Pastor David Wafula planted a church outside a small village near Kitali 12 years ago, he chose as the theme for the church 2 Timothy 2:2, which is the theme verse for our training program: And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. Although you cannot see the writing on the banner, Rosemary (pictured on the right) made it for Bibleway FWB Church using that very same verse as their theme. That may explain why the pastor and his congregation were so excited and committed to the training program we brought them. We invite you to read the UPDATES page to learn more about the training program in Kenya.

What a Surprise!

Testamonies from the Training Program

Ivory Coast

Pokiné Kambou is president of the National Association of Free Will Baptist Churches in Ivory Coast and pastor of a church in Abidjan. He also was one of the four narrators we trained to lead the workshop for the other 50 pastors and Bible Institute students invited to participant. Here is what he said about the training: I learned how to share the story of redemption chronologically, highlighting God's promises and His faithfulness until they are fulfilled . . . . I also discovered the true meaning of certain passages and the connections between passages in the Old Testament and those in the New Testament, where their true meaning was revealed. Thank God, who has guided you here to bless us in this way. Thank you for your obedience to God.

Kenya

Pastor David Wafula, founder of the church that invited us to go to Kenya to train his church leaders and other pastors in the area with the Project 2:2 -- Evangelistic Narrations. Brother David's current ministry is shepherding Bibleway FWB Church in Kenya and training children, youths as well as adult. Also the Lord is using him to reach the lost world with His gospel. He went on to say that the Project 2:2 they received from Pastor Ron and Steve was a providence from the Lord, and an amazing tool to reach out to the lost world.

Additionally, it helps us to continue training many men for the cause of Christ and to plant more churches for His glory. Something else I learned was that storytelling is a good foundation for preaching the Word or teaching people the Word of God: first start by telling a biblical story then preach or teach them through practical applications of the Word.
