Hey guys and gals! There’s a giveaway over at the Run-a-Muck right now for a book called Mercy Rising. Perhaps in some ways akin to the Hole in our Gospel which has been rocking my socks off for the past wee while, it is an inspiring book that will help you believe you can make a difference to a world in need. It is also a unique resource boasting a multitude of ideas and features to help us get from “I wanna help but I don’t know how” to “I’m gonna help and here’s how.”
I desperately want to inspire you guys, because I am finding life and joy in the inspiration I’m receiving from my experiences here in South Africa. I hope that if you believe anything else, based on the things I write and share and point toward in this space, you’ll believe ::
1. That Jesus is who He says He is, the One who lived and died for your sin and mine and offers grace and forgiveness at His own expense and
2. That you can make a difference in the world, following the example He set and obeying the things He taught. And if we ignore everything He taught about care and concern for the poor, than we are indeed living out a holey Gospel and we are missing the social revolution Jesus set in place.
Hop on over to the Run-a-Muck to read more about this special book and how you can win a copy! I hope you’ll be inspired!
I create resources to help people find deeper, more meaningful relationships with God through pursuing, pondering, and prayer. The "Shop" link above will take you to the home of many of the lovely resources I’ve created to help you keep walking one day deeper with Jesus.
Hi there, friend . . . loved looking at your pics of African animals today. So fun that you get to experience such a different part of God’s creativity. And, love that you are learning a new way to offer mercy there in S. Africa. The lessons learned from this time for your family are going to be so life-giving and far-reaching.
Is it crazy over there with all the World Cup peeps? Take Care!
These are life-giving lessons already, for sure! I do hope they’ll be far-reaching too!
Folks are pretty wild and excited with the World Cup being here — flags on cars and street lamps … vuvuzelas blowing in full force…exciting stuff! But we are outside of Cape Town, (and not in a big host city) so we aren’t get too many craziness. Which is a good thing. 🙂
YOU ARE AWESOME!
thank you, Caroline.
