In this video, we interview William Adams at the Oiwa Church of Christ in Shizuoka, Japan. Brother Adams shares insight into the inner workings of mission work in Japan and what it takes to build stable, faithful congregations.

Topics we discuss:

• Cultural sensitivity in evangelism

• Long-term sustainability in mission work

• The importance of doctrinal integrity

• Challenges foreign workers may not expect

• What kind of support is truly helpful

Japan is often considered a “hard soil” mission field. This conversation gives clarity to why that is—and why the work still matters deeply.

The Japan Gospel Project is working toward a full-time relocation to Japan in early 2027, focusing on strengthening congregations and producing Bible-centered media.
