Robert Morrison was the first Protestant missionary ever sent to China, and the first to complete a full translation of The Bible in Chinese. It cost him everything. He lost friends and loved ones, buried two children, a wife, and eventually died on the mission field, thousands of miles away from the land of his birth.

I don’t know how many here will have read INFIDEL by Ayaan Hirsi Ali, but it’s an amazing book about her journey leaving Islam. She’s been an atheist ever since - until this month. @sinbach shared this article with me this about her recent journey to Christ 🙏🏼❤️

Part of a letter written by a Rwandan believer before he was killed, 1980.
I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,
hesitate in the presence of adversity,
negotiate at the table of the enemy,
ponder at the pool of popularity,
or meander in the maze of mediocrity.
I am a disciple of Jesus Christ.
I must go until Heaven returns,
give until I drop,
preach until all know,
and work until He comes.
And when He comes to get His own,
He will have no problem recognizing me.
My colors will be clear.
Such an important and heartbreaking story - 100k Christians JUST lost their homeland

My wife and I met a woman in the grocery store last night. She just moved from California. She graduated from Berkeley College, and her father was a leftist professor. She just gave her life to Jesus three years ago at the age of 79!! And she got baptized two months ago!!
Don't ever give up on Jesus or on His power to reach people.
From an older time when the written word was much more rare and more revered than in our info-saturated time. From a slower and more contemplative time and age when books were handicrafted, written, not just rushed out:

This year with more nations in conflict amidst the lockdowns due to the pandemic we have freed more slaves than ever before in CMM’s history.
One of the greatest tragedies of our times is the many who are lured, then trapped in sexual slavery. Reports show there are more people in slavery worldwide than at any time in history. The CMM Global Family prays for and helps free slaves through our trusted, indigenous network of long-term fruitful friends/missionaries. Our network in many nations raises awareness, increases education, helps in prevention, rescue, recovery, counseling, and all that is necessary to see restoration and walking in the fullness and completion of destinies for God's precious creations in internationally.
