Strength to Strength
Strength to Strength offers resources that will strengthen your obedient love-faith relationship with King Jesus and give you solid footing in a shaky world. VISION: Inspire flourishing communities of faithful Jesus-followers around the world. MISSION: Advance Jesus’ kingdom by assisting the church in earnestly contending for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints, through tackling thought-provoking topics, by stimulating candid discussions, and by sharing faith-building testimonies. ACTION: We do this by providing multimedia resources including podcasts, videos, and books, and by pointing people to local communities of believers. Our speakers and writers are supportive of a Christ-centered, kingdom-focused, Scripture-based way of life, specifically as modeled by the Anabaptist tradition. However, we will sell books not written by kingdom Christians when they are able to share a unique or challenging perspective. In engaging with any of our resources we encourage you to be a Berean.

Pablo Yoder has dedicated his life to the furt...

Strength to Strength welcomes Dean Taylor for another episode on the Radical Reformation.
In this episode of Strength to Strength, Dean Taylor revisits the Radical Reformation through the lens of the sacraments—Baptism and Communion—and challenges many of our modern assumptions about them.

Strength to Strength Sisters welcomed Christina Baer to discuss a common, but underappreciated, phrase from the Bible.

Strength to Strength Sisters welcomed Carol Nisly to share about cultivating meaningful personal Bible Study.
"He to whom the Eternal Word speaketh is delivered from a multitude of opinions." —Thomas à Kempis
