Meet the Gideons

In today’s episode of the Grace Seminary Podcast, Dr. Freddy Cardoza interviews Joel Wilson and Kevin Nance, members of Gideons International, a global, non-denominational Christian organization that focuses on bringing Scripture to all people and winning men and women for the Lord Jesus.

With a ministry spanning over 100 years, The Gideons International is “an association of Christian businessmen and their wives dedicated to telling people about Jesus through associating together for service, sharing personal testimony, and by providing Bibles and New Testaments” (gideons.org/about).

Known primarily for their work in placing Bibles (in 107 languages) into hotel rooms (in 200 countries), Gideons International also develops professionals in a variety of fields to share their faith, complete acts of service, and distribute God’s word.
