Overview

Protection. Prayer. Providence. People. People throughout history have shared stories to entertain, to inform, to inspire. Christ’s people do this, but even more than that, they tell stories to testify to the mighty acts of their God. The stories in this book testify to God’s protection in times of war, on journeys, from enemy attacks and in everyday life. They tell of prayers answered. They proclaim the Father’s care, in providing what His people need at the very moment they need it. WEC – Worldwide Evangelization for Christ – is a mission organization founded by C.T. Studd and Alfred Buxton in 1913. There are nearly 2,000 full–time members from over 50 nations working in 70+ locations around the globe. WEC UK & Ireland is made up of several hundred members. These stories come from among their ranks. Each written by an ordinary Christian, in their own words, these stories will challenge and encourage you. You will find yourself asking what might happen if you stepped out in faith.

In a world preoccupied with the spectacular and superheroes, it is easy to lose sight of the wonderful work God is doing daily in different places. He works through ordinary people and often in ordinary ways. Read these simple stories and behold God’s matchless love and power. -- Chopo Mwanza (Pastor, Faith Baptist Church, Kitwe, Zambia) Like Mary Magdalene, who ran to tell the disciples she had seen the risen Christ, the faithful, ordinary men and women in Only One Life have seen Christ alive and at work in our day in the power of His rising—and are eager for us to see Him, too. -- Tim Keesee (Director, Frontline Missions International; Executive Producer, ‘Dispatches from the Front’ film series; Author, ‘A Company of Heroes’) The WEC missionaries in this publication are an example for the rest of us because their obedience to God, lived out transculturally, offers those proofs – that the good news of Jesus is real, is good, and produces real change in our lives and the lives of others. -- Jason Mandryk (Lead Researcher and Author, Operation World) … a rich resource of stories from WEC members around the world from which we can benefit and perhaps learn how to tell our stories to pass on in turn to others. -- Alan Tower (National Director, Friends International)
