History
David and Sonia Garrison began WIGTake Resources in 2004 while serving as missionaries in India. David’s 1999 57-page booklet entitled Church Planting Movements received a widespread global acclaim and has been translated into more than 40 languages. This prompted David to write a more substantial survey of church-planting movements under a similar title, Church Planting Movements, How God is Redeeming a Lost World (Midlothian, VA: WIGTake Resources, 2004). This new book led to the creation of the publishing house WIGTake Resources, an abbreviation of the question “What’s it Gonna Take?”
In the years that followed, WIGTake Resources identified breakthrough movements around the world and helped translate them into highly accessible and readable books for the global body of Christ. Each of these WIGTake titles addressed the question, “What’s it going to take to reach the world for Jesus Christ?”
