Adopted Peoples

Given that less than one cent out of every one hundred dollars contributed by Christians around the world is earmarked to take the Gospel to those who have never heard the name Jesus, Cedar Springs began the adoption process of unreached people groups in 1994. "Snatch others from the fire and save them…" (Jude 23)

How human it is for us to be concerned primarily with our own salvation. But it is wrong to stop there. We must also be concerned for the spiritual safety and security of others. Remember God's challenge in Ezekiel 33 (a paraphrase): "If you warn them and they do not listen, that is their responsibility. If you do not warn them and they perish, I will hold you responsible." That is a great challenge to us as we think of those who still have not heard the gospel.

The church has adopted seven people groups, all of which were "unreached."
