The stories in the chapters that follow aren't chronological. They're not a history of how I found myself living on the side of a mountain in Mexico, and I'm not sure that would interest anyone but my mother and her friends anyway. Instead, I've mined my journals for those moments when God used the very people I thought I was in Mexico to lead, to lead me instead. Time and again I've been led to trust God, with my little mustard seed of faith, to see how he not only shows up in our circumstance - but he shows off!

Come join The Lavine brothers and their mother as they continue traversing the local communities in their aging '95 Chevy 12 passenger one-ton metal hunk-of-a-van as they journey through the "middle years" of their 15-year Christmas caroling gig.

Reema takes us deep inside her Arab neighborhood to show how God is opening doors in just one of many Islamic communities.

What is there about a dying church that brings glory to God? Mark Clifton's convicting answer is "nothing".

Approximately 2,000 years after he returned to Heaven, the church exists in places like South America, Asia, and the remotest islands of the Earth.

In this book, Josh Dotzler, challenges the way we have been doing church in the Western culture based on lessons he's learned from the COVID-19 crisis. Historically, a crisis highlights and challenges our beliefs and behaviors. It’s easy to believe we are doing the right things when things seem to be working right. But "working right" doesn’t always mean "doing what’s right".
