One Can, One Man

Several times a year, I prepare around 1000 gift bags for poorer Afghans to receive. These gifts are filled with hygenic items but also an audio/visual copy of the Good News. It was around early November when my team and I planned on trying something a little different. Rather than going it alone, we would…

A Gift Well-Received

Mac Man’s friends wanted to come for a visit and be a blessing to others. So, he took them out and about to shops and bazaars to give gifts.   Thirty minutes after dropping them off, he walked around himself. Every where he walked he noticed amazing things happening. He writes: “The men were gathered around…

The Persecuted

Some are harassed. Some are in prisons. Some are tortured. Some are executed. What is their crime? They trusted Jesus as their Lord and Savior.

A Fresh Start

Only a few weeks ago, the world heralded in the year 2011, as New Year’s Eve passed. As mentioned before, I had been working the past several weeks on getting out over 2000 gifts to needy Afghans and other peoples. Its been a large task but nothing is too large for our Lord. While there…

The Sacrifice

One of my favorite opportunities for reaching the Afghans abroad is coming up. Eid-Al-Adha. This is the time when Muslims remember the offering up of Abraham’s son to God. During this 3 day celebration, they themselves typically sacrifice an animal. The issue of sacrifice is such a great one to point Muslims towards Christ. All…

The Forgotten

I have been blessed over the past several months to have formed a strong relationship with a community of Baluchi. These people come from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iran. Often they leave their home land and move abroad in search of work or escaping persecution. It’s these people that the Lord has shown me and brought…

The Lover

Many of you have probably never met anyone that truly hates you. Someone who thinks you are a despicable person and wishes ill upon you. I especially hope no Christian would ever feel that of someone else either. However, how are we to act when we should face such a challenge? I see perhaps the…

Baluchi Brothers

One day while I was out driving, I noticed a rather poorly placed bazaar on the far outskirts of town. Curious, I decided to pay it a visit. I soon found myself chatting with some of the shopkeepers and discovered several of them were Baluchi, hailing from the Baluchistan province of Pakistan. After a good…
