2023 MINISTRY REPORT
To the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever.
JUDE 25
Remembering 10 years of
Behold Your God
In 2023, we celebrated the tenth anniversary of our flagship study, Behold Your God: Rethinking God Biblically.
The Lord has graciously allowed this study to reach thousands around the globe with the message of how to return to the God of the Bible.
This study is now being distributed in English, German, Dutch, Spanish, and Russian with current and potential upcoming translations in Portuguese, Lithuanian, and Swahili.
In 10 years, the Behold Your God series has been expanded to also include Behold Your God: The Weight of Majesty, The Sermons of Behold Your God: Rethinking God Biblically, The Sermons of Behold Your God: The Weight of Majesty, and Behold Your God: Seeking Him Early.
We praise God for how has been pleased to use Behold Your God and pray that He would continue to make His name great in every place through our weak efforts.

“It was where I learned NOT to skim through the Old Testament because Jesus is right there…and because God has a reason for inspiring those writings. AND that ‘What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.’ It changed everything for me and brought me so much closer to God and who He really is.” — Susan
-
“Truly, this study changed my life. The Lord used this guide to show me His Holiness, pulled me out of the self deception of easy believism and saved me unto His self. The power of the Holy Spirit evident as desires of the flesh were finally conquered. Will always be a work in progress but now I know Him in relationship, not through religion/spiritual way, but He is living and active!”

“Have you tried the latest fads in your church? Did it seem like the change in you was superficial and did not last? Could it be that you are dealing with the symptoms and not the actual source of the symptoms? We boast of being a church who knows God, but do we actually know Him? This is the finest study I’ve seen on the greatest need in the church, God.” — Justin
-
“This devotional was the turning point in my Christian journey and a blessing, indescribable.” — Luke
-
"I got saved while studying the ‘Behold Your God’ series.” — Alejandro
-
“I’ve been watching ‘Behold Your God: Rethinking God Biblically’ and the second season as well and I have been tremendously blessed by John Snyder’s sermons on the biblical view of God! God has been leading me to Truth and out of 5 years of depression and then 5 years of recovery from false teaching.” — Enoch
-
“I had been a Christian for almost 40 years and was in a deep pit of suicidal depression (off and on for 5 yrs.) when God led me to Behold Your God. This study saved my life and set my feet in the right direction — toward learning about our great God and away from the world.” — CJ
-
“It is because of this work and the section in the workbook by Mr. Roberts about root and fruit sins, that I realized I wasn’t saved after thinking I was for about 30 years. I immediately got the matter settled and I now know and can see in myself that I am a new creature. Praise the Lord for using this work to open my eyes!” — Barb
Film, print, and media for the glory of Christ and for the good of His Church.
Christ has fully accomplished the redemption that the Father planned, and now the Spirit is applying that grace in time to the lives of God’s people all around the world. God has appointed certain “means” to serve as the channels through which the Spirit applies that grace.
The work we produce is meant to give aid to the church here and abroad as it fulfills the Great Commission by the use of those means.

The content, depth, and richness of the teaching is unmatched…
The podcast has deeply fueled my pursuit of the Lord and my daily walk with Him. The content, depth, and richness of the teaching is really unmatched in the bulk of most Christian media content available out there.

“Thank you so much for all your resources. They are a continual source of encouragement and a guide to the great wonder of our Lord and King. I love your podcasts, I have so many that are book marked so that I can go over again and again.”

The means of grace are in my hand,
The blessing is at God’s command
Who must the work fulfill;
And though I read, and watch and pray,
Yet here the Lord directs my way
And worketh all things still.
— JOHN BERRIDGE
