Who is GNPI?

Meet Ziden & Helen Nutt
GNPI was established in 1975 in response to a growing need for media and missions materials that reached people through the lens of their culture. Founders Ziden and Helen Nutt, who were previously missionaries in Rhodesia (modern-day Zimbabwe), realized this need when Ziden produced a filmstrip which featured Rhodesians and reflected the local language and customs. The response to the film was overwhelming. Sometimes as many as 2,000 people gathered to watch the film, and over 1,000 people a year came to Christ.
Since then, GNPI has grown to include more than 25 teams around the world. We’ve produced visual and audio media in more than 100 languages and shared the gospel with millions of people worldwide. With the growth of internet technology and social media, we’re also developing platforms and strategies for engaging different cultures and worldviews online. Whatever the method, whatever the strategy, our goal is the same. GNPI is committed to sharing the Good News with every tribe and tongue through relevant media.
