Meet Terry

Terry is from Ecuador but lives in Australia. In this interview, Terry shares how he thought he was a Christian, but didn’t have any knowledge of the Bible. Once the gospel was explained to him, Terry placed his faith in Christ and entered a personal relationship with Jesus. Terry talks about the blessing of his local church for his family and how they have chosen to support it.

Meet Karen

Meet Karen. Karen shares how she felt enormous anger and bitterness to her father for how he treated her mother as a child. She describes how God used people around her as a young woman (including her future husband) to bring her to the Bible, and show her how much He personally loves her. Karen describes the unburdened feeling she found inviting Jesus into her life as her Lord and Savior, and also the great relief she felt after she reconciled with her father. Karen describes the fulfillment she feels with the work that God has given her to write and encourage others in her church.

Meet Monica

Monica shares that she experienced neglect and a lack of love in her childhood. Monica grew up with low self-esteem, and she sought love through sexual relationships. Monica did not grow up knowing the Bible, and found it hard to understand. Monica joined the Catholic church as an adult. Despite regular attendance at church she still felt there was something missing. Monica was invited to a Bible-preaching church where she heard the gospel for the first time. Monica trusted Jesus as her personal Lord and Savior. Monica knows that God has forgiven her for her past choices, including an abortion she had as a young woman. Monica shares she would have liked to get married and have a family, but she is content and happy serving in the National Guard. She trusts in God’s plan for her life.
