A Migrant Worker's 700 Mile Evangelism Journey
For those willing to keep their hands to the plow, COVID-19 and the ensuing lockdowns are opening doors of opportunity to spread the gospel to new people and places. Consider Rohit*, a migrant worker laboring in one of the most populous cities in South Asia. One of over 40 million such migrant workers in his home country, Rohit had already beaten the odds…
Here and There
When the COVID-19 pandemic began, three of our missionary families from a partner church in Oklahoma had to leave their homes in Asia and return to the US. They were heartbroken to have to leave their communities abroad, but in the midst of all the changes and uncertainty, God has continued working through them in amazing ways. Each family has…
Transformation of an Idol Worshiper
Arvind* was a priest who led others in the worship of idols for many years. But at the beginning of 2020, he heard the gospel, repented, and was baptized. He immediately began to share his newfound faith, leading others to Jesus and baptizing them as well. The team praised God…
Bread of Life Ministry
The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated what were already difficult times in Venezuela. Millions had fled the country in recent years, searching for hope and a better life elsewhere. Then, when the pandemic hit, the whole country went on lockdown. An old friend and partner of e3, Carlos*, happened to be traveling through Venezuela at the time…
Seventeen Days
When the COVID-19 virus hit South Asia, like other areas across the world, businesses closed, schools shut down and public buildings locked their doors. This caused fear, anxiety, and complications throughout the region, but it also caused many to experience hope and love like they never had before. This is the story of how that happened.
Faith in the Face of Persecution
Dahlia* is a Christian like you and me, but where she lives, in South Asia, Christianity is not okay. For her, participating in worship and Bible studies is dangerous, persecution is normal, and putting her faith in Christ means putting her earthly life at risk.
Recently, Dahlia was caught studying her Bible by others in her village…
CB's e3 Partners Fundraiser
As we look at the world and the situations we face daily, it can seem as though all hope is lost and the world is moving in an irreparable direction. While worldly evidence for this view may abound, e.g., corruption, frequent wars and rumors of wars, growing sex trafficking industries, diseases abounding, etc., the bible teaches that this is simply the way of a world and people marred by sin and separated from their creator. We attempt many things to dig ourselves out of this position, like electing promising politicians, forming NGOs to combat humanitarian issues, and seeking economic prosperity. These efforts, however, always prove fruitless in the end. They are like placing bandages over a major bleed. While they might cover up the issue for a time, they will never solve the core problem and more problems will arise if the root issue is not addressed. What, then, is the answer to our seemingly hopeless situation?
Scripture makes it very clear that the only hope that lasts and is not subject to situation or power of this world is that which is found in Christ. The only hope in war or peace is in Christ. The only path to life is not in the food, shelter, or finances that we use to preserve our lives on this earth, but is in Christ, the bread of life and our shelter in times of need. If this is the truth, then it follows that the only true cure for the world’s issues is in the gospel. God has made this fact clear in my life over the years and has placed in me a heart for all those operating apart from Him with no knowledge of the gospel or access to someone to explain it to them. By partnering with me in prayer and financial support, you will help me to not only get this message of hope and salvation out myself, but also help me to equip others to do the same, multiplying our efforts that the Lord might be glorified as many come to know, praise, and serve Him.
Through your prayer and financial support, you become a part of everything God does through me. You are making an impact on the Kingdom with your contributions. You can click the “Donate” button above to get started.
Thank you in advance for your generosity!
