Lifted by His life. Renewed by His love.
Jason Betler founded The Nations Hope in 2004. We proclaim Jesus Christ and help believers live His life where they already are – in their homes, their streets, and their cities.
Much of our work is with local churches, and it also reaches people who cannot get to one.
The Nations Hope is a registered Society in Singapore and a 501(c)(3) non-profit in the United States.
What we do
Hope Festivals
City-wide gatherings that unite local churches to proclaim Jesus publicly, pray for the sick, and equip believers. Each one is built to leave those churches stronger after we have gone.
Media
Video, writing, and shows for the places where people already watch, listen, and read. That includes people far from a church, and people who cannot get to one.
Training and discipleship
Practical resources that help believers understand the gospel and live it in everyday life. Simple enough for a group of three or four to use on their own, and built to be handed on.
Relational care and presence
Person-to-person ministry in ordinary places: prayer, pastoral conversation, practical care. We train believers to be present to the people already beside them, one street and one neighbour at a time.
