Engaging the Bible, 2015 Are you reading? Are you reflecting on scripture daily? Are we all living it out? It’s our ongoing challenge.

Also you can watch episodes on computer, http://www.nbc.com/ad-the-bible-continue or on You Version Bible App. Twelve episodes based on the New Testament.

The goal of the Canadian conference is to build a communications strategy that is increasingly mission-focused, strengthens partnerships with provincial conferences and reaches as broad an audience as possible. Sensing a call to communicate in new ways, conference leadership has announced that, as of December 2015, the MB Herald will be replaced by a new print initiative that will be developed with our provincial and national ministry partners to rally churches around our mission to “multiply Christ-centered churches to see Canada transformed by the good news of Jesus Christ.” Therefore the Herald, and subsequent magazine, will operate on a bimonthly production schedule beginning this summer.
