TODAY'S WORD A very small percentage of people in our world today take time to read and study the Bible daily. Understanding and reading the Bible is a missing component in the lives of so many people. This book, TODAY'S WORD, provides a short devotional for one to read every day of the year. These devotionals are written so they can be understood by all ages. We have included at least one verse from the Bible with every devotional so one can relate our words to the Word's in the Bible. Ken and Dottie Phillips met as college students at Wheaton College in Illinois. They have worked together in missions for over 56 years while raising a family of six children who now all have children of their own, their 20 grandchildren. Ken and Dottie after their schooling were married and then ministered in Korea, establishing 145 orphanages for World Vision. During his college days Ken worked with the Billy Graham film ministry and in two city-wide crusades. After they returned from Korea, because of the death of Ken's father, one of the founders of World Vision, Ken worked in Los Angeles Youth for Christ, coordinated the YFCI Capital Teen Convention and the reunion of over 1000 former YFC directors. As one of the founders of World Opportunities International, Ken spent thirty years establishing this mission in some 135 countries. More than $665 million dollars worth of food, medicines, clothing, hospital equipment and literature was shipped to established ministries through WOI during these 30 years. For 20 years Ken consulted 35 missions in the fields of management and fund raising. Now Dottie and Ken write a daily devotional, 365 included in this book, sent daily to more than 22,000 email addresses of subscribers. For further information go to www.thehungersolution.org
