While there is nothing about the LORD that changes, He delights to see positive change in us. He loves to effect this change in us. He carefully works in each one of our lives, changing us into agents-of-change.

Stephen and Carolyn Crockett, along with the rest of the team to the Moi people of Indonesia, have had the privilege of seeing God change Moi lives. This change has been so evident in part to the fact that the Moi lived such ungodly lives before they were introduced to the Truth.

God changed the Crockett’s lives, and through them, a number of Moi are enjoying changed lives. But now it is coming full circle—the Moi are having an opportunity to challenge and change lives in North America.

The NTMfilms team recently made a trip into Moi land to begin shooting footage for an upcoming short film. For nearly two weeks they battled the elements, listening to story after story of lives being changed by the Creator of the Moi.

They met a woman who had never before seen a white person. They walked down trails with men who have killed — some of whom have killed two or even four people. They heard these same men tell of their fear of witchcraft and spirits, and ultimately, death. “We have no old people,” one man said. “We all die young.”

But they also heard dozens of Moi believers lift their voices in praise to God in a uniquely Moi way. They heard them pray and thank God that they no longer live in fear. And they heard them express their appreciation to God, and to the missionaries here, and to all the folks who have helped the missionaries who are planting a church here.

On this crazy journey into the jungles of Indonesia, God was found. He was found changing lives.

The hope of the NTMfilms team is that the story of the Moi journey to faith will have an impact on the North American church. The journey is one of contrasts. Men who once ran through the jungle to set up murderous ambushes today can be heard singing praise to God together.

NTMfilms team member Ian Fallis wrote: “If this film is what we want it to be, it will glorify God, stir praise and worship of our Creator, and inspire others to get involved in the work He is doing; as well as getting the Moi believers involved in all that.”

Will you please join us in praying that, in God’s strength and by His power, we reach those goals?
