Overview

"For those who enjoy a good chuckle, a God Challenge and thrilling ride, fasten your seat belts. Consider this an engraved invitation to join two Christ followers who obeyed His Great Commission to leave the comfortable church and enter into the uncomfortable, chaotic and challenging world of Southeast Asia. They became embedded in the Indonesian world, learning two new languages, and crossing imponderable cultural barriers with one purpose - that of sharing the good news of God's salvation through the Lord Jesus Christ. The driving engine of this book speaks to the unspoken cries of the world, ""Is there a God who sees my pain? Is there anyone of you who cares enough for my soul to tell me the truth about HIM? If so, why should anyone have the right to hear the Gospel twice until everyone has heard it once?"""
