David Sitton is passionate for unreached tribes in Papua New Guinea and beyond. He is the author of Reckless Abandon in which he shares his experiences as a modern-day gospel pioneer's exploits among the most difficult to reach peoples. Reckless is right when the cause is Christ. God catapulted 20-year-old David Sitton from the beaches of south Texas to the stone-aged tribes in Papua New Guinea. Sitton traded sand and surf for cannibals, giant mosquitoes, crocodile-infested swamps, malaria, and a hostile sorceress in order to advance the Good News of Jesus among unreached peoples. Reckless Abandon is a bare-knuckled dare to count the cost and seize the privilege of working with Christ in His worldwide mission.

Ben recently served as an Elder and Assistant Pastor at Capitol Hill Baptist Church in Washington, DC.

During their time at Capitol Hill, Ben and Meagan’s heart began to be burdened to return to the Fort Worth area to see more healthy churches established. They are beyond thrilled for the doors the Lord has already opened in Fort Worth and are excited to see what God will do in and through Trinity River Baptist Church in the days ahead.

iGo Global is passionate about students learning how to live on mission wherever they are. Before flying overseas, each student receives training that not only equips them for their trip, but also for a lifetime of making God famous.
Because iGo is committed to the completion of the Great Commission, we focus on sending students to the least reached peoples on the planet.
Since iGo Global is an intra-church organization, we partner with and are sent by local churches. Rather than replacing or competing with churches, iGo seeks to be a vehicle that local churches use to train and mobilize the next generation to Make Him Famous.

In most of the UK they are known as council estates, in the US they are regarded as the projects, but in Scotland they are called schemes.
Drug and alcohol addiction is rampant, and many in the schemes either use or deal, or both. Both illegal and legal drugs make their rounds, and there are many drug deaths as a result.
Most living in Scotland’s schemes are spiritually dead and will never be reached by the church, and therefore will never hear the gospel. We believe that gospel-preaching local churches are the best way to reach the dying souls in the schemes for Christ.
