We seek to glorify God by mobilizing the Church to advance the gospel and strengthen churches to the ends of the earth.
We seek to strengthen the church among the nations by encouraging healthy churches here to engage in the mission of training, building, creatively supporting, and encouraging existing pastors, churches, and networks on the field. We do this so those indigenous churches can advance the gospel where they are and where we might never reach on our own... to the ends of the earth (ad finis terrae). We believe helping build and investing in present faithful work will help future Kingdom work expand. Our aim is a healthy church in every town and village to the ends of the earth. Only God can accomplish that vision, but His Word displays that He has chosen to do it through His church as we connect, collaborate, and mobilize to that end. In coordination with our partners we have many opportunities to mobilize for mission. Some of those include:
- Providing theological education for pastors and church planters to strengthen the church
- Supporting and serving schools and children in poverty that they might have open ears and hearts
- Drilling wells for clean water in the communities where our schools and churches proclaim the gospel
- Building churches where it makes the most sense among the pastors on the field
- Building hospitals and serving medical missions to open doors for the gospel
- Creating culturally engaging gospel video and language resources to reach the unreached

Check out our most recent field report!
August 30th marked the official dedication ceremony for "The Church of the Living God" in Malawi. This congregation has met without a building for several years, but since joining the TNI network in 2025 they have proved to be faithful partners in gospel work and we're praying God uses this building as a tool for gospel advancement for many years to come!

Our team in Malawi got to celebrate 9 baptisms with our brothers and sisters at Canaan Baptist Church Malawi! We're so thankful for church partners across the world who value being disciples who make more disciples, and we loved getting to celebrate with them as God continues to move in their community.

Days 2 and 3 of our current training in Malawi have concluded. Students have begun to break into small groups and apply the concepts they are learning. We have finished our first class on Biblical Interpretation Skills and have moved into the second class on Gospel Centrality in Theology and Practice.

Our Executive Director, Alec Bissey, has had the opportunity to spend time with local pastors and churches in Kenya on his way to Malawi. We are grateful for the opportunity to connect with these leaders, learn more about what God is doing through their ministries, and explore ways we may be able to encourage and support the work they are doing.
We’re thankful for these new relationships and look forward to seeing where they lead.

A TNI team (in partnership with Bethlehem Christian Academy) is heading to Malawi in less than a week! 🇲🇼
Please pray for them as they open the Malawi campus of Risen Savior Theological College, baptize new believers with our Malawi church partners, perform outreach and evangelism in the refugee camp, and celebrate the opening of a new church building.
Join us in praying that God would use this team to strengthen His Church, reach people with the gospel, and continue to equip faithful leaders in Malawi.
