One Mission Society is on YouVersion

... and you can find two snippets by yours truly in the mix!

One Mission Society (OMS) posted its first devotional in the well-known YouVersion app a couple months before my last day serving as associate editor in the OMS USA Communications Department.

Follow OMS on YouVersion

Before this launch on YouVersion, a former coworker asked the Communications team to compile a missions-themed devotional to use as a resource that would encourage readers to meaningfully engage in missions by reading devotional thoughts from missionaries. This devotion became my responsibility to organize and edit and remains near and dear to my heart. Now, you can read it on your phone!

Below is the first portion of one day I wrote for this devotion, "Engaging in God's Heart for the Nations."

OMS has a variety of daily devotion plans you can find here on YouVersion. Praise the Lord for new ways to share biblical, missions-themed truth with people all over the world!

Happy reading!
