1. clean clothes are not always necessary. in fact, they’re hardly ever necessary. 2. buckets are your best friend when running water is scarce. 3. trash cans aren’t too necessary either. why not just skip the middle man when you’re done and throw your own trash on the ground? 4. there’s a high chance your life isn’t as hard as you think. people in kolkata break rocks with hammers, pull rickshaws by hand with bare feet and pick up cow poop with their hands to make a living. 5. it’s not the big bugs you’ve got to watch out for. it’s the little...

Just For Fun

The Bible speaks about a man named Job who was upright; he feared God and hated evil. Job was so righteous in God’s eyes that one day when Satan came before the Lord, God asked Satan “Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil.” (Job 1:8) God was so pleased with Job and his actions.

I want to share with you two stories about two different children who are so sold out for Jesus here even at a young age. I hope this encourages you to realize that if children are lead into a relationship with the Lord that is mature and not discounted as “too young to understand” they really can live a life for the Lord. Lead you kids to love Jesus like these kids. Pritam: Pritam is a...

What brings us together

What brings us together as humans? I know that in my home our family would gather around the dinner table to share meals with one another, the food and fellowship as a family brought us all together. It was always my favorite time of day to see each member of my family, to hear them laugh, smile and share about how there day was. Some days there were serious matters to discuss and other days we could not stop laughing and joking, especially my father, brother and I. I feel so much love and joy with my family. The more I think about what brings us together, I think about the beauty of being...
