Published monthly (combined December /January issue)
Challenge Literature Fellowship is a non-profit organisation. We publish an evangelistic newspaper to encourage and help Christians to share their faith regularly and to give readers the opportunity to learn about Jesus Christ.
Challenge was established over 20 years ago.
By the grace of God the past ten years have seen significant increases in our monthly print run distributed by churches and individuals in Australia, New Zealand and Africa.

Eric Evans

Founded by Eric Evans in the late 1970s, the ministry story is a miracle in itself. Eric served in the British Navy during World War II, then continued to work at sea, first from the UK and then after migrating to Australia.
Making a commitment to Jesus Christ in his 40’s, Eric became a lay-preacher, always on the lookout for suitable material to take on door-to-door visitation. His suitcase of Bibles was heavy, to say the least! Eric was inspired by a verse from Habakkuk 2:2-3 which was eventually to lead Eric into founding a print shop. It should be made clear that Eric had no working experience in print; rather he trusted in God to give him the skills, resources and people to get the job done.

The team began to form, first in workers homes, then to rented premises in Perth's southern suburbs. Like Eric, many contributors had minimal print experience. Within a few years of conception Eric invited Carl Carmody onto the team. Carl, trained in TV and Film media took a step of faith in accepting the offer and remains to this day committed to the ministry as editor of the newspaper. He also promotes Challenge world-wide.

Packing papers for distribution

As we believe that Jesus Christ is Lord Challenge is familiar to most Australian evangelical churches. We are blessed to have our own premises in Perth; and a stable team of full and part-time workers who have gifts that enhance various aspects of the ministry. Apart from the Challenge newspaper, we offer a printing service to the church and missions communities.

For quite a number of years now Challenge newspaper has been made available to the world's seafarers, from many ports in Australia, but particularly through the faithful ministry of Ian Dennis in the Port of Melbourne. Eric Evans who is with the Lord now would be thrilled to hear this good news.
To God be the Glory!
