On Hope Unlocked, host Kristin Kurtz interviews Todd Reynolds of Sunrise New Testament Ministries on the calling that shifted him from sales to Scripture distribution. After a Sunday school plea for “Bibles in native languages,” Todd launched a lean model that partners with missionaries and local distributors to place affordable Bibles where access is scarce. Hear his near-death testimony, service-first sales mindset, and a VBS story from France that changed a family. We unpack why heart-language Scripture fuels evangelism and discipleship, how to endure dry seasons and practical ways to pray and support the Great Commission.
