Dear Ministry Supporter,
AT LIGONIER MINISTRIES we have a passion to see God’s people trained in His Word. Thus, our central focus has always been Christian education. God looks on our hearts (1 Sam. 16:7), but our hearts cannot beat with true love for Him unless they are informed by minds saturated with biblical truth. In 2012, Ligonier continued helping Christians know what they believe and why as well as how to defend and share the Christian faith. God blessed our forty-fi rst year of coming alongside the church to teach the body of Christ, and I want to share some of the highlights.
We were not una� ected by worldwide economic instability. However, the Lord met Ligonier’s needs through generous friends like you. Thus, we sustained and increased our outreach. Tabletalk magazine perseveres in delivering daily Bible studies to thousands of subscribers, including free subscriptions to numerous military chaplains and prisoners worldwide. Renewing Your Mind helped new and existing listeners grow in Christ every day. Our teaching fellows and I
recorded new teaching series, and Reformation Trust published sound Reformed literature.
New initiatives included translation of several books into Chinese for distribution in China. We also initiated and continued translation work in Spanish and Portuguese to further Christian education in those languages. The fi rst full academic year of Reformation Bible College was an incredible
success, and we have doubled our student body this fall. Exciting digital outreach developments included the growth of Ligonier Connect, our online learning center, to help believers learn from one another no matter where they live. We also launched RefNet (Reformation Network) which provides twenty-four-hour Christian internet radio featuring broadcasts from Ligonier’s vast digital archive along with other trustworthy preachers and teachers.
We give thanks to God for this outreach. And we know that we could not provide this ministry without partners and friends who fund and pray for our work. Thank you for your support, and I look forward to what we will do together for His kingdom in 2013.
In Christ,
R.C. Sproul
