“But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be
prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the
hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect…”
(1 Peter 3:15)

As followers of Christ, we want to share what God has done
in our lives and the hope that we have in Him. Each of us has an amazing story
of God’s deliverance from death to life that He wants us to share over and over
for His glory. The question is: how is the integration of God’s Word into our
own lives drawing others to ask about the hope they see in us.
For Alice and I, part of our ongoing story of God’s grace
involves the joy filled opportunity to spend the three months each year traveling
throughout India.
Some might wonder what we do when we are in the US. Yes, we speak at churches, make
phone calls, write e-newsletters, send emails, tweet, and post on Facebook,
etc., but we like to focus on the ministry to India, where the ongoing
challenges encourage a deeper walk with the Lord.

The Lord has blessed us and those who have a part in these
ministries by giving us the words to speak in grace about His love. It is an
exciting experience to see God’s Word come alive through stories, music,
laughter, tears, and the smiles of His children.
Live out God’s Word each day so you have the opportunity to
share your hope in Christ. Your own story continues; connect with a cause in a
deeper way in the next year by checking out our website today and let God use you to change a life.
