While our broadcasts are the first step in reaching communities in hard-to-reach places, they can’t serve as our only strategy to show the love of Jesus.

Many people face unique challenges when it comes to hearing the Gospel. In Cambodia’s countryside, villages are spread out across farmland and connected by small dirt roads.
