It’s the halfway point of the year, and God has already done so much. We have made production trips to India and Guatemala, and all of those stories are already in the process of being edited. In fact, since the next production trip is not until September, it has allowed us to move forward with editing all the remaining stories. Our Kenya media missionary, James Kariuki, has now been with us for six months, too. James has been an incredible addition. He has already advanced

There is an unreached community that you may not have ever considered, the deaf community. Officially, there are 70 million deaf people around the world, but estimates place it as high as 400 million. Fewer than 2% of the global deaf community have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. That makes them an unreached people group. Last year, one of our Board Members, Danny Torres, met Gacoki Kipruto of Kenya at a missions conference in Georgia. He immediately made a FaceTim

What's Your Legacy? What is the story God is writing through your life? What legacy will you leave behind? I think each of us hopes our lives will keep making a difference long after we are gone - that the seeds we planted will continue to grow. If you support OneMessage.tv through your giving and prayers, oral learners are being reached with video Bible stories. A legacy gift through your will or trust is a simple, faithful way to make sure your gospel impact continues. The

Thomas Lolmakar discovered OnMessage.tv’s Samburu video Bible story library a little more than a year ago. The Samburu videos have actually existed for nearly 5 years. Thomas is a church planter and a trainer of church planters in Kenya. Since he found OneMessage.tv, he has been using the video Bible stories in all facets of his ministry. Just in the last few weeks, Thomas used the videos in an evangelistic event, and saw 7 people baptized. In May, Thomas reported that he has

We had such a great time at OneMessage.tv’s Second Annual Top Golf fundraiser! It was so much fun, and it was a great opportunity to connect with many of you for the first time. We hope that you enjoyed it as much as we did. We wanted you to know that your presence helped us raise more than $14,000! That money will lead the way to reach more oral learners with God’s Word in a way they can see, hear, and understand. For that, we say "thank you!" If you have given to OneMessage

Voices for Prayer is a monthly prayer email for the OneMessage.tv community. OneMessage.tv turns 7 years old this month. We have now recorded 260 video Bible stories in 14 different languages! But with all that growth comes new demands. For most of the life of OneMessage.tv, Doug and Paul have done all of the field production, the story editing, and the fundraising. In December, we added James Kariuki to our team. James lives in Kenya and is carrying a large portion of the vi

Our production team has just returned from a trip to Guatemala, working on a video Bible story library for a new people group––the Q'anjob'al (pronounced kahn-ho-bahl). Click images to enlarge It was an amazing trip with incredible people. If you missed any of our daily updates on social media, you can catch up on all of them here. And take a moment to watch this short interview with our mission partners in Guatemala. Listen to them share about the need for the gospel among t

Mary Deche is a missionary along the coast of Kenya and a mission partner with OneMessage.tv . She recently held a series of movie night events in villages she is reaching. Rophas Mwazoya attended one of the evenings. He shared how it impacted him. Click the image below to hear his story. "I had heard about the Bible stories, but when I watched them and continued watching, they helped me to make firm decisions on my faith in Christ. My favorite video is about Christ: his bir

Voices for Prayer is a monthly prayer email for the OneMessage.tv community. In a recent survey, so many of you asked us to provide you with ways to pray. That's why we've created this monthly newsletter that will focus only on prayer requests. To that end, we're highlighting one of the people groups we will be working with and sharing some special prayer needs. PEOPLE GROUP OF THE MONTH The Gabbra tribe is made up of about 117,000 people. They reside in the northernmost par

Can you believe three months in 2026 are already gone? Here at OneMessage.tv it has been a blur. January was barely underway when we headed to India to begin a video Bible story library in the Kaobrung language. Since returning, we have been busily editing the videos that still need to be completed. And preparing for the next three months. Our next big event is a production trip to Central America. We leave on April 30th to begin a new video library for another new people gr

We heard the OneMessage.tv community loud and clear! You've asked to hear more testimonials from the field and we've got them. Our plan is to share at least one brief story with you each month. Here is our first. One of our mission partners in Thailand shared about an opportunity he had last week to show some of our video Bible stories in the Isaan language using his phone. ( Click the image below to watch the video he sent us. ) "Today was a remarkable day. I had an opportu

Get ready to swing for a cause! OneMessage.tv is excited to host our 2nd Annual Topgolf Fundraiser on May 20th , and we can’t wait to see you there!

Our next trip is to the mountains of Guatemala. We leave on April 30 to begin work on a video Bible story library for the Kanjobal people . Please begin praying for the travel, health, and safety of our team, as well as, our mission partners and the local people who will be acting in the videos. There is a lot going on in the meantime. We have recorded so many videos over the past 12 months that it has been hard to keep up on the editing side. Editing the videos is a time-int

The OneMessage.tv production team has just returned from India. By all accounts, it was an exciting and effective trip. The Ushoi or Brung people are an indigenous tribe from the region that is now Bangladesh. They speak the Kaobrung language and are scattered across Southeast Asia. But wherever they are found, they are considered a micro-minority. To them, that has meant that they are overlooked and have no voice, no matter where they live. Kaobrung speakers are primarily a

We met Stephen on our very first video shoot in Kenya four years ago. He is a pastor and a missionary to the Samburu tribe. Since that time, Stephen has served as our translator for three more video shoots. He continues to travel and share the video Bible stories throughout northern Kenya. He recently shared about a journey to six different villages, and at least 20 people got saved in each village after watching the videos. Then this summer, he shared a new vision: "I am pl

On Tuesday, October 14th, we hosted our second annual banquet where we celebrated what God is doing through OneMessage.tv and shared our vision for the future. If you were not able to join us for the event, we'd like to share this brief overview. This quote from Warren Buffett shares the idea that it takes investment now in order to see results later. That's certainly the case with OneMessage.tv. There are oral learners in unreached people groups who are seeing and hearing G
