Guidelines International

Guidelines International Guidelines is a radio and media ministry sharing the gospel with those who need it most through short, relatable content distributed via global media networks.

Guidelines devotionals present the gospel in a uniquely effective way for the new believer, the unreached listener, or a listener living under persecution. Guidelines content is:

• 2-5 Minutes: Short, simple, practical and biblical
• Translated into the “Heart Language” of the Listener: the language the listener first learned from his or her mother.
• Contextualized: The devotionals sound natural

to the listener; illustrations are unique to where the listener lives and highly understandable. Guidelines has been engaged in transforming lives with the message of Jesus since 1963, when Dr. Harold Sala first began broadcasting Guidelines for Living, a daily five-minute devotional which was the first radio program of its kind. Now 57 years later, Guidelines International Ministries is in its second generation, broadcasting on a global scale, led by Bonnie Sala, Harold and Darlene Sala’s daughter. Through the support of missional Christ-followers, Guidelines has:

• Created and produced over 14,000 biblical, inspirational audio and video messages that are broadcast by radio networks and internet partners in the U.S. and around the world.
• Expanded distribution of audio and videos on social media, email and podcast subscription and made them available on seven global online streaming platforms.
• Translated the life-giving devotionals into 20 languages that are spoken by over 3.6 billion people.
• Partnered to establish five community radio stations in countries where the gospel is inaccessible to most people and distributed hundreds of solar powered radios/audio Bibles to those who could not afford them.

Sometimes all it takes is a few moments with God's truth to change the direction of your day.

We're grateful to hear how God is using Reset with Bonnie Sala to encourage listeners and refocus their hearts on what matters most. Thank you for celebrating this story with us, and for praying that many more people would encounter the hope of Christ through this ministry. ❤️

A grandmother’s faith can leave a lasting legacy. ❤️

Farrukh first encountered God’s Word through his grandmother’s Bible as a child. Years later, those same truths came alive again when he discovered gospel videos in his own language.

God can use one person’s faithfulness to reach hearts for generations.

Listen to how He is working in Farrukh’s life and around the world through media: guidelines.org/sermons/can-seeds-of-faith-still-bear-fruit-decades-later
