BROADMAN & HOLMAN TO REPRESENT EVANGECUBE

NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 1, 2005 -- Broadman & Holman Publishers and EvangeCube® International announce a strategic partnership which will allow the publisher to represent EvangeCube resources to the Christian retail market throughout the United States.

Casey See, Executive Vice President of EvangeCube International says, “We are very excited about the new partnership with B&H.  We believe their passionate sales team, coupled with the organization’s deep and historic roots will represent EvangeCube resources in a way that will yield much fruit -- not only for the retailers they serve, but for the lives that will be touched for eternity."

EvangeCube is a division of Global Partners, a unified church planting ministry composed of three primary elements: evangelism-discipleship, church mobilization and leadership development.  Since January 2000, two million believers have been equipped to use the EvangeCube around the world as an easy, fun, and non-threatening way to present the Gospel.  The goal is to harness the EvangeCube as a powerful tool to reach one billion people by 2010.

“The EvangeCube is one of the best evangelistic ice-breaking tools I’ve seen.  It is so simple to start conversations that lead to the presentation of the Gospel, even with strangers.  It’s easy enough for a child to understand, yet intriguing enough to pique the curiosity of adults – it truly makes witnessing easy for anyone.”

–         Ted Haggard – President, National Association of Evangelicals and

Senior Pastor, New Life Church, Colorado Springs, CO

“The EvangeCube is a visual tool that has strengthened the witness of our church through the testimony of our people in their daily activities.  It serves as a reminder to share the good news and creates a unique ‘open door’ for conversation and presentation of the gospel of Jesus Christ. To have an EvangeCube is to be equipped for any moment or opportunity of witness that can change the destiny of people’s lives.  I urge you to examine and use the EvangeCube.”

–         Dr. Jack Graham – Pastor, Prestonwood Baptist Church, Plano, TX

“The EvangeCube is a compelling, easy-to-use evangelism tool that I have personally used both in America and overseas.  Children are now using the cube just as effectively.”

–         Jack Eggar -- President/CEO, Awana Clubs International

“I hook my little cube to my backpack, and when people ask me what’s on there, I can tell them about Jesus.  I want people to know how much Jesus loves them, and why He died on the cross for them – I just kinda feel good about doing that.”

–         Bailey, 5 year old
