Every once in a while, actually quite often I am brought to a halt, a complete standstill in awe of our Creator and of His creation. A cold night sleeping on the airport, He is there! Midnight running through mud in Kenya, a bucket shower for two to share, Selenge the eland is around somewhere but He is everywhere. Important to remember, but so easy to forget our Father is good and He always remains fair. I used to think that the only way to learn is when a teacher is standing in front of a blackboard, but now I...

A faith journey began last year 21 August when I woke up with the idea in my head to do a Global challenge year journey, I thought it was my own thoughts but as God led me that morning to read in Angus Bucan daily message in a book I never used I got some conformation threw the heading scripture that said Go out and make disciples (Matt 28:19) little did I know that God will stretch my faith so much, He is always faithful and His timing is perfect. Now about 6 months later I am of to 13...

The Lord brought me into the light of a lot of exposure during the course of this past year. And many times I stood in a valley of decision. I had the choice to let the exposure pass me by as an experience that looks cool in my instagram pictures, or I could grab it by the horns and ride it all the way into wisdom canyon. This is a pretty metaphor to describe the sometimes seemingly ugly process we’ve all been in, of struggling with questions and finding their answers. It’s usually a more painful and tormenting process. I...

The world turned upside, not because it changed, because JESUS changed me. Scriptures, prophecies, dreams, direct words from God, these were all part of God's plan to set my soul on fire and make me burn with hunger for more of Him. Thank You Jesus, for none of this was my own doing, but by Your grace alone.  The result of God's plan:  Face down I laid.  Dumbstruck,  flabbergasted and paralysed. Praising God. Silently crying out in desperation. For what God reveled to me, changed my life. For the first time I saw. Before I only heard and knew of...

Meeting pastor Bill was so amazing, just hearing his testimony speaking on radio telling people about our journey and what God has done for us in our lives. I will not forget Panama, it was a blessing to be there. All the things we did praying for people to be healed in prison and going out to the street to also pray and share the gospel to the people. Also parents visit a relaxing time also. But for me God has changed my personality because now I'm able to speak and to express myself and not to be shy or...

First, we went to Bethlehem. While living with the Coptic nuns and serving them in Bethlehem our hearts were touched while working in the garden of one of the grottos and serving them the best we could. We formed so many relationships with local people from Bethlehem and could bring clarity to a lot of Christians who had questions about suffering and with questions such as,''What does it mean to have a relationship with Jesus?''  Our time in Jerusalem passed with spreading New Testament Bibles to people from all nations translated in their native language.   We gave a Chinese...

So far my experience at Global has been incredible! I have met so many Amazing people who I am beginning to love, brothers and sisters in Christ.  A few weeks ago during a Worship session I was pleading with the Lord for a new experience - some sort of spiritual gift. I cried out to Him to give me something, anything, a vision, a prophecy, but it never came, only a silent voice from the Lord, humbling me and telling me to get on my knees and surrender all to Him again. So I did and simply asked the Lord...

  Incredible India When the wheels of the Boeing 747 touched the runway all memories stopped and reality parked at the door of my heart. The summer heat of India embraced me like a loved one and it is holding as if in fear of losing me. The aroma of spices awakened my smell senses and familiarity rushed through my mind. The taxi ride was like a movie playing back a reminder of how incredible India is. The streets are filled with people, riksjas, bicycles, playing children, cows, busses, and cars.  The sound of business shouts from all the corners...
