Be Utterly Amazed

Master Article for 2006 Kentucky State Missions Emphasis


When Jesus sent out seventy-two disciples, He said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.  Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field. Go!” (Luke 10: 2-3a, NIV).

Across the state, Kentucky Baptists are asking for the Lord’s leadership and intervention. Kentucky Baptist Convention leaders are facilitating groups to pray quarterly in strategic locations of the state for spiritual awakening. KBC and WMU leaders are organizing groups to pray the perimeter in communities, church fields, and associations, claiming Kentucky for Christ. Prayer cells are praying in storefront buildings, theaters, service stations and homes.  Prayer teams are prayer walking city streets and rural communities.  Pastors and church members are gathering to pray in city parks.

As the prayer movement intensifies, God’s voice seems to echo, “Be utterly amazed. For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe” (Habakkuk 1:5b, NIV).  In the shadow of His manifested presence, dramatic trans-formations of cities, churches and individual lives are producing waves of awe and astonishment.

During the 2006 Season of Prayer for State Missions, accept the challenge to join the prayer movement in Kentucky.  Begin by reading the utterly amazing stories of God at work in our state. Then pray that God will multiply His work throughout the state and extend His movement into other parts of the nation and world.

Pray for guidance as you give financially to the Eliza Broadus Offering which supports missions efforts in Kentucky.  Listen to the voice of God calling, “Go!”  Join the growing army of missions volunteers and you will witness miracles that will leave you utterly amazed!

Eastern Kentucky Ministries

Driving through Eastern Kentucky is like tramping through a forest where God lives.  When the majesty of the high mountains envelops you, you feel you should take off your shoes.  You have reached holy ground. Despite the rugged beauty, many folks living deep in the Appalachian Mountains of Eastern Kentucky are suffering economically and spiritually.  Twenty-two of 100 poorest counties in America are in Eastern Kentucky. In 47 counties in Eastern Kentucky, an estimated 700,000 people are lost.  

  
During the past few years, however, an amazing movement of God has taken place in Eastern Kentucky. As part of the Kentucky Baptist Connect strategy, Dr. Larry Martin, Consultant with the Kentucky Baptist Convention Missions Growth Team, takes groups into the mountains several times a year for Eastern Kentucky Missions Awareness Tours.  “Seeing in person how God has developed a ministry and experiencing local leaders telling their stories adds a new dimension,” says Martin.

The first stop on an Eastern Kentucky Awareness Tour is usually Christ’s Outreach for the Blind, three miles off I-75 in Mt. Vernon. Blinded in a hunting accident when he was 32 years old, Mike Gates is building a camp for the blind and handicapped which officially opens this year. Thousands of missions volunteers from many states have assisted in building the camp and a number of people have accepted Christ during its construction. 

“Mike envisioned the beautiful lodge in his mind and told his friend how to put it on paper,” Martin explains on the Awareness Tours.  “He wants campers to experience what they can do despite their blindness. Mike and his wife, Lori, want campers to learn about God’s purpose for their lives and about the love God has for them.” Camping activities will include hunting, horseback riding, fishing, swimming, hiking, gardening and independent living skills. Christ’s Outreach has already hosted several hunting camps.  

Another stop on the Awareness Tours which provides a powerful example of God’s movement is in Cumberland, Benham and Lynch, three small coal-mining towns in Harlan County.  “In March 1999, God led Lonnie and Belinda Riley back to Eastern Kentucky,” Martin explains to tour participants.  “Belinda had grown up in Lynch and Lonnie in Hazard. They came not knowing God’s plan.” In the past year, 3,800 missions volunteers from 35 states have worked with the Rileys. 

During the ministry, over 3,000 people have accepted Christ.  “There is a tremendous need for discipleship,” Martin adds.  Today, the Rileys direct a staff of 20 full-time volunteers from Kentucky and several other states.  Meridzo Ministries includes Solomon’s Porch Retreat Center, a 69-room hospital renovated to house missions volunteers; Calvary Campus, a 25-acre college campus; and many other ministries including food, clothing, equestrian ministry, and job training.

Lonnie Riley is also co-author of the 2007 SBC doctrinal study on faith, produced by LifeWay. “God is doing utterly amazing things which no one could have planned or predicted, things only the Lord could do,” says Martin.

My Father’s House, a missions center in Jenkins, is another amazing Eastern Kentucky ministry on the tour.  Bessie McPeek, who was once herself in such dire need that she was forced to apply for welfare, began “God’s Love from a Diaper Bag” by keeping diapers in the trunk of her car to give away to mothers.  Today, the ministry includes food and clothing, home repairs, adult literacy, computer training, drug and alcohol counseling, Bible studies and other ministries.  Missions volunteers from Kentucky and other states have ministered alongside Bessie and Lester McPeek. 

Another unique ministry, Haven of Rest, is located in Inez.  Eileen Mullins was devastated when her son was sentenced to a prison term, but soon God spoke to her about establishing a hospitality house for families of inmates.  Hundreds of missions volunteers have donated labor and materials to build a beautiful facility near a new federal prison that recently opened in her county.  “When the prison opened, families, usually from out of state, were comforted with free lodging, clothing and someone to pray with them,” Martin says. “Haven of Rest continues to grow as God reaches out in love in an utterly amazing way.”

Cedaridge Ministries in Williamsburg, operated by Keith and Joyce Decker, ministers to thousands of families each year by building and repairing homes and distributing food and clothing. “When you hear Keith speak, you hear compassion which comes out of his own tragedy as a teenager and the love he now has to share in the name of Jesus Christ,” Martin says.

Lynn and Angie Wagoner minister in McDowell through God’s Appalachian Partnership (GAP). The ministry provides food and clothing for approximately 300 families a month and job training in an area with a 52% unemployment rate. Jonathan Smith, GAP youth director, is reaching many youth in the impoverished area using innovative methods.

A Missions Awareness Tour also includes a stop in Berea where Marie Wing directs a 7,000 sq. ft. food warehouse ministry.  “For years, we prayed for a warehouse located near an interstate where we could receive tractor trailer loads of food to distribute to 47 food ministries in Eastern Kentucky,” Martin says.  The ministry is a partnership of Rockcastle and Tates Creek Associations.   Mountain Missions Development Corporation, a non-profit corporation, operates a clothing ministry in an adjacent building and rents 15 housing units to families with low income.  A separately housed Childcare Center serves as a model for training ministers in childcare. Martin’s enthusiasm for Kentucky missions is evident as he says, “We have seen God do amazing things as He meets the needs of those in Eastern Kentucky, people who are often hungry and are so open to receiving love in Christ’s name.” 
   

Bill Barker, national director of Appalachian Regional Ministries (ARM), also plays an important role in mobilizing volunteers into Eastern Kentucky. Based in Kentucky, ARM, a partnership ministry of NAMB, WMU and ten state Baptists conventions, seeks to reach the Appalachian region which holds almost 13 million unchurched persons. “One of my roles as director is to help people understand how they can use mission volunteers to come and work with them,” says Barker. “I also travel in the south and occasionally out west to tell people in Southern Baptist churches about the many needs in Appalachia.”
   

Additionally, ARM maintains a web site, www.arministry.org, that lists volunteer opportunities in Appalachia and publishes an electronic monthly newsletter with stories about what God is doing in the region. “As a result, we are now seeing about 50,000 volunteers coming into the Appalachian Mountains each year to do missions,” reports Barker. 
   

“In Kentucky, we are seeing God do utterly amazing things through volunteers,” Barker shares with tour participants and others who want to help in Eastern Kentucky. “For example, a church has been built in the Greenup Association and another is being planned next year in the Mt. Sterling area. A retired teacher in Jenkins is teaching a 57-year-old grandmother to read so she can read Bible stories to her grandchild. A retired missionary, Jack Hester, moved to Kentucky from Ohio and bought a house in an unchurched community. Looking around he asked, ‘What can God do in a community that is drug infested?’  Before long a church was meeting in his home.”
   

“Today, Middlefork Mission is there and young people are coming to faith in Jesus. In Owsley County, the second poorest county in the nation and the poorest in Appalachia, Jerry and Susie Lacefield are touching lives through food and clothing and other benevolent ministries. And the hand of God is on Dale Hanson in Winchester who has converted an old factory into a ministry center,” says Barker.
   

Barker also cites a 2004 MissionsFEST, sponsored by WMU, as part of God’s movement. WMU volunteers distributed Jesus videos that were purchased with funds from the Eliza Broadus Offering.  Later an additional 15,000 Jesus videos were donated by a local businessman for distribution in Eastern Kentucky.  “After MissionsFEST was over, people came to the Enterprise Association office in Prestonsburg asking for Jesus videos,” Barker says. “The additional 3,000 videos we dropped off answered a prayer for a need.”
   

“Everywhere we are finding a major movement of God, we can find an individual or a group who has been praying for years or decades or lifetimes to see this movement,” Martin says. “This is so evident that we use the term, ‘prayers on deposit.’  For example, three women in Mt. Vernon began to pray earnestly in the town gazebo for God to move and others joined them. Initially, they prayed for their families, churches and the community but God began to expand their vision to include the nation and world. One church in Mt. Vernon baptized more than 100 both last year and the previous year. Drug dealers have come to know the Lord. New ministries have developed at Renfro Valley, one of the state’s premier tourist attractions. Christ’s Outreach for the Blind has grown in amazing ways.  A whole community transformation is taking place.”
   

“When we pray, oftentimes, we do not see the immediate answers but the prayers are never wasted, they are simply like money in the bank, waiting for the time when God is ready to use them,” Martin explains. “Now we have the privilege to see the answers to their prayers.”
   

Please pray for additional volunteers to work alongside those who are doing ministry in Eastern Kentucky.  Pray that God will continue His movement in Eastern Kentucky and extend His movement throughout the state, nation and world.
   

As you pray, give to the Eliza Broadus Offering which supports ministries in Eastern Kentucky.  EBO will provide over $186,000 for ministries in Eastern Kentucky this year.  This includes funds for missionary salaries and insurance, transportation, literature and  ministry supplies.

Baptist Campus Ministry

When students pack up their hopes and dreams and move into college dorms, they are confronted by critical lifestyle choices. On 36 college campuses in Kentucky, Baptist Campus Ministry is reaching out to students with the love of Christ.
   

Twelve full-time Baptist campus ministers serve in the main universities and regional schools in Kentucky and 12 part-time campus ministers serve in the smaller schools and colleges.  Interns, Mission Service Corps missionaries, and US/C-2 missionaries work with campus ministers to develop a mentoring relationship with the students. Nearly 5,800 college students participate in Baptist Campus Ministry each year and an average of 500 students serve in summer missions.
   

“Kentucky Baptist Campus Ministry (BCM), formerly known as the Baptist Student Union or BSU, is a ministry that seeks to make an impact for Jesus Christ and develop leaders for the future generation of the church,” says Keith Inman, Kentucky Baptist Convention Director of Collegiate Ministry. “We do this in a variety of ways, primarily through evangelism, discipleship and missions, with a heavy emphasis on leadership development. Campus ministers have the opportunity to help students stay on the straight and narrow and buy into this purpose of being on mission for God on a university campus.”
   

Inman also notes that discipleship presents a particular challenge because students are exposed to many different ideas and philosophies of life on a college campus and many are arriving biblically illiterate. “Our campus ministers have a strong emphasis to teach the Word of God and what it means to be a follower of Christ,” he says.
   

At Northern Kentucky University (NKU), Baptist Campus Minister Brian Combs also believes that Bible study, a time when students “dig into the Word with each other,” is foundational to spiritual maturity. “It is through that relationship with God that we find that word and begin to live out what God called us to do,” he says.
   

As students learn to study the Bible and share their faith, evangelism, another challenging aspect of campus ministry, begins to happen naturally. “We seek to equip our youth to have an intimate relationship with Christ that is just a natural spill-out of what it is to be known and loved by a God that extends unconditional love,” Inman explains.  Campus ministers also help students develop confidence in personal evangelism by taking them onto the college campus to practice witnessing techniques.
   

One of the largest evangelistic outreaches to students at NKU is “Food for Thought,” a weekly meal provided by local WMU groups, which have provided over 5,000 meals on the campus. Students pay $1.00 for the meal, which is added to the BCM summer missions fund. “We have so many students coming to our Baptist Center that don’t know the Lord,” Combs says.  “This is an opportunity for believing students to capitalize on the discipleship training they have received and to practice sharing their faith and develop relationships that will eventually lead others to come to know Christ. We have students who just came in for a meal who accept the Lord.  Students at NKU often describe the Baptist Ministry Center as ‘a refuge’ but BCM also encourages students to study the Bible, come together to worship and interact with each other, and to share Christ,” says Combs. The NKU Baptist Campus Ministry Center is supported by the Kentucky Baptist Convention, Northern Kentucky Baptist Association and several churches.
   

Through Baptist Campus Ministry, students have opportunities to grow spiritually and develop leadership skills by participating in missions across the state and around the world. “The relationship we have with WMU and Eliza Broadus funding has a tremendous impact on our campus missions,” Inman said. 
   

Students who become involved in missions may choose to audition for one of four Son teams (Son Bound, SonBurst [2], SonReach) . The teams consist of four to seven students who are assigned to one of three specific areas of ministry: VBS, sports, or creative ministry.  During the summer, the Son teams minister at many locations including camps, churches and resort areas, sharing Christ through sports, dramatic sketches, interpretive movement, VBS, Backyard Bible Clubs, creative bible study, games, music, puppets, clowns and a variety of other ways.
   

Son teams are sponsored by the Kentucky Baptist Convention, in partnership with the North American Mission Board and the International Mission Board. Last year, a Son Share team led worship and youth camps in Switzerland.  A congregation in Amherst, Massachusetts moved into a permanent building last year, six years after a Kentucky Son team helped to start the church.
   

Baptist Campus Ministry is also involved in missions that affect Baptist churches statewide. To address the low baptism rate among youth in Kentucky, college students are sent into churches on a weekly basis to conduct youth revivals and Disciple Now and Experiencing God weekends.  “The vibrancy and witness these students bring into the church is very effective and we are seeing many students accept Christ as a result,” Inman says.
   

September 29-30, 2006, during Focus, the annual state Baptist Campus Ministry conference, BCM will launch  Haystack Awakening ‘06.  This will be 21 days of prayer and fasting, October 1-21, based on Acts 1:8 and commemorating the 200th anniversary of the Haystack Revival of 1806 which launched a missionary movement in America.  All campus ministries will implement intentional witness training during August and September.  Students enrolled in campus ministries will also receive instruction on the Holy Spirit and His role in everyday life.  The students will be encouraged to share stories of the 21 days in churches through personal testimonies.  “The aim is to reach many churches with this message of beseeching God to bring revival to our campuses and for there to be a genuine movement to God’s heart for the nations,” Inman says.
   

At NKU, Baptist Campus Ministry connects students with other churches by sponsoring Youth Collegiate Connect, a training conference for youth and church youth leaders. College students bridge the gap between college students and youth by leading break-out sessions. “We bring in experts in key areas to have training sessions with youth leaders and love on them,” says Combs.  “We offer fellowship, encourage-ment, resources and connect larger churches with smaller churches, all working together, as the body of Christ, to have the greatest impact possible.”
   

“Impact Northern Kentucky also connects students with local churches to do missions that impact the community,” Combs says. “Students are discipled for four hours each morning and then practice their faith through ministries in the community and in churches.”
   

When hurricanes devastated the Gulf Coast, Kentucky Baptist college students went to the area to assist in the relief effort. “Many of our students went into homes of single mothers and ripped out sheetrock,” Inman says. “Emotionally, these people were very fragile. A radiance of hope was delivered directly through the students to the Gulf Coast.”
   

Involvement in Baptist Campus Ministry also provides opportunities for students to experience missions in an international setting. “Last summer, through a partnership with Thailand, students taught English as a second language,” explains Inman. “In a primarily Buddhist culture, they were able to share the Good News of Jesus Christ. We are beginning to see a church being birthed there.
     

In Costa Rica, students are taking fresh water and living water. Last year, students in Brazil witnessed through street evangelism. The students returned to the campus with an openness to developing relationships with internationals which leads to sharing their faith in Christ,” he says.
   

When students accept Jesus on a college campus, a miraculous transformation takes place in their young lives which is a bold witness to others.  “Sandy came to the university campus with misfortune in her background,” Inman says. “She was struggling.  She had been violated in many ways but when the gospel of Jesus Christ set her free, her friends saw the radical change in her life and it launched her as a dynamic witness on that campus.  This young woman went on to have a healthy marriage and is involved in ministry in one of our largest churches in the country.”
   

“Many times, these students end up in our churches as pastors, staff members and many times on the mission field as missionaries because someone was there at a critical time to remind them that God is forgiving but He has also called them to a higher plane, to be on mission with God,” says Inman.
   

Please pray for the needs of Kentucky Baptist Campus Ministry and for opportunities to share the gospel with students.
   

As you pray, give to the Eliza Broadus Offering which provides funding for student summer missions, campus revivals, student missions activities, and international student ministries.  EBO will provide $97,000 for student ministries this year.  An additional $4,000 will help provide trainers and expenses  for the Creative Ministries Festival/ Youth Missions Workshop.  EBO also provides funding for collegiate missions education and salaries for college students who work in the WMU missions camps.

Crisis Pregnancy Ministries

Hope Unlimited

When a twelve-year-old girl learns she is pregnant, she feels confused and hopeless.  At a tender age, faced with an unwanted and unplanned pregnancy, she must make critical decisions that will affect the rest of her life.
 

Hope Unlimited Family Care Center, a non-profit organization in Paducah, is guiding many young women through this difficult decision-making process.  Their mission statement reads:  “Hope Unlimited Family Care Center exists to empower women and men to make life affirming decisions through counseling, education, compassionate care and the truth of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
   

The center offers free pregnancy testing and education on abstinence, nutrition, parenting, childbirth, adoption, anger management and other important topics. Girls and their boyfriends who attend the classes also participate in Bible study. “Our maternity home, House of Hope, houses young girls during their pregnancy,” says Karin Thomas, Executive Director of Hope Unlimited. “We are a service organization and an educational association, teaching three R’s: reverence for God, respect for others and responsibility.  Some of the girls return after their pregnancy to complete the program, bringing their babies with them. Girls also return, after their babies are placed for adoption, to grieve, be loved and get ready for a new independent living situation.”
   

Sixteen years ago, the average age of Hope Unlimited’s clientele was 18-25. Today, however, the age span of the girls is 12-19.  “In a normal day, we may see three or four twelve-year-olds who test positive for pregnancy,” Thomas says.  A Nurse Practitioner, a licensed professional Christian counselor and lay counselors minister to the needs of the young girls.
   

Through a Learn to Earn program, the girls learn responsibility. Clients earn points by keeping appointments, completing classes or attending a church service. They use the points to buy baby supplies and other needs in the Learn to Earn store. “They feel so uplifted because they earned this and learned something,” Thomas says.
   

Hope Unlimited also acts as a facilitator for adoptions. An adoption counselor helps to guide the girls and makes referrals to an adoption lawyer.  “Young girls would rather abort a child than imagine giving it to someone through adoption,” Thomas says. “I tell them, ‘Don’t be selfish. Let’s be concerned about the child and then, let’s trust God.”’
   

In addition, Hope Unlimited positively impacts the community through a Junior Ambassador summer program.  Teens serve in the center and on alternate weeks go to classes to learn about Christ. As a result, a Junior Teen Ambassador support group of 45-60 teens has developed which meets monthly in a local pizza parlor. “The teens invite pastors to speak to them and form panel discussions,” Thomas says. “They need a support group because they have decided to walk in purity and they are encouraging each other.”
   

“At the end of the program, girls take their fathers to dinner at a Purity Ball and the daughter is presented to her father as a gift from God,” Thomas says.  Boys serve as escorts, waiters and lead the music.
   

Hope Unlimited will soon move to a more spacious location, four blocks away from its present storefront location. A newly donated ultrasound machine will confirm pregnancies, monitor cardiac activity and determine the gestational age of babies. According to statistics, 95% of women choose life after an ultrasound shows the new life God has formed inside them.
   

Volunteers are needed to sort clothing for Hope’s Closet, a community clothing store that sells clothing priced at $2.00 and under. Volunteers are also needed to do clerical work, repairs, plumbing or lawn care and volunteers with trucks are needed to pick up donations.  Since 1999, Eliza Broadus funding has helped to purchase baby supplies for the Learn to Earn program. Please pray for wisdom for the board of directors, staff and for clients who make critical decisions. Pray that the girls will receive Christ.                
 
Baby Boot Camp
Another ministry to pregnant teenagers is Baby Boot Camp, a ministry of Kentucky Baptist Nursing Fellowship (BNF). Baby Boot Camp is a ministry to help prepare pregnant teenaged girls and young women for motherhood.  “Planned in connection with the WMU emphasis Project Help: Poverty, Baby Boot Camp is designed to teach and educate teen pregnant girls who are unwed and often in a poverty situation,” says Jessica Childers, President of Kentucky Baptist Nursing Fellowship. “We teach them all areas of wellness-physical, emotional and spiritual. We work with Baptist Centers and associations across the state to invite the girls to come to the camps.”
   

Expectant mothers who attend the Baby Boot Camp rise early. “After a devotion and prayer, we talk about how important it is praise God for this blessing He has given and that it is part of God’s plan,” Childers explains. “Then, the girls are taught baby basics including bathing, diapering and dressing the baby and caring for the umbilical cord or circumcision.  The girls receive instruction in breastfeeding, how to hold and cradle their baby, and the importance of giving the child as much love as possible.”  Baby Boot camp participants also learn about True Love Waits and the Christian perspective on sexuality.
   

After lunch, the nurses talk about spiritual and emotional wellness, depression, and anxiety. “We tell them about the importance of happiness in life and that spiritual wellness is just as important as physical wellness. We teach them how to develop a relationship with Jesus Christ and raise the child in a Christian home,” Childers says.
   

“Afterwards, we go into a big baby shower and just pamper the girls,” says Childers.  Gift baskets, containing items donated by WMU women, include homemade quilts, receiving blankets, diapers, diaper rash ointment, wipes, powder, bottles, bibs, shampoo, sleepers, and toys. Baby Boot Camp gift baskets also include copies of helpful books. Baby Boot Camp, published by WMU, is a daily devotion for young mothers for the first six months of baby’s life. Caring for Your Baby and Young Child is an aid for young mothers.  They also receive The Purpose Driven Life.
   

Leaders continue a relationship with the girls by staying in contact with them after the baby is born.  “The leaders take these girls extra clothing just to let them know someone cares,” Childers says. “The girls who attend Baby Boot Camp are amazed how much women, through WMU, have donated to them. They are utterly amazed that women who don’t know them care so much about them and their baby.”
   

Nurses who desire to extend their calling to volunteer mission work are invited to join Baptist Nursing Fellowship, a ministry of WMU.  Kentucky BNF is a state chapter of the national organization of Christian nurses. Kentucky BNF, founded in 1987, meets three times a year and members receive information through a quarterly newsletter. The nurses pray for each other and for missionary nurses, prepare for lifestyle witnessing, receive information about missions careers in the medical field, and participate in volunteer missions activities.
Continuing Education Units are provided for attending the meetings and activities.  Membership in Kentucky BNF is open to nursing professionals, both active and inactive, nursing students, and other health care professionals. You may join the Kentucky Baptist Nursing Fellowship by contacting the Kentucky WMU office in Louisville.
   

Please pray for Kentucky BNF and that the nurses will show the love of Christ through their work.  Please pray for Baby Boot Camp and other crisis pregnancy ministries in Kentucky. Pray that unmarried pregnant teenage girls will develop and grow in a  relationship with Christ.
    As you pray, give to the Eliza Broadus Offering. Through Special Ministry allocations, funding is provided for Baby Boot Camp, Hope Unlimited, and other church and association based ministries across Kentucky.  Seventy-five thousand dollars has been earmarked for these requests  this offering year.  In addition, EBO will provide $2,000 for the work of Baptist Nursing Fellowship.

Be Utterly Amazed
Pray...Give...Go

During the 2006 Season of Prayer for Kentucky Missions, you are challenged to become an integral part of God’s movement through prayer.  Pray for the Lord of the Harvest to send more workers to meet the needs of the lost and suffering in Kentucky. Ask God to create a spiritual hunger in the hearts of Christians who have strayed away from their commitment or who have become complacent. Pray for God to magnify His movement in Kentucky and create new ways to minister.
   

Accept the challenge to support state missions by giving generously to the Eliza Broadus Offering. Pray for God’s guidance concerning missions stewardship as you present your offering to Him.
    

As you pray, listen to the Holy Spirit calling, “Go!” Pray for God to reveal your place of service as a missions volunteer. Allow Him to use you to extend His comfort and strength to others as you share the gospel of Christ. Respond to His compelling call and you will discover the joy of service and be utterly amazed by His transformational power.

“Be utterly amazed. For I am going to do something in your days that you would not  believe” (Habakkuk 1:5b NIV).
