Thank God for Partners
Far too often we think we are working alone. I have been coming to Ghana since 2001. During these 19 years I’ve been blessed to witness God do some incredible things — 100’s of thousands of people have indicated a personal decision to follow Christ, and well over 1,000,000 people have heard the Gospel.

Without any effort of our own, we will be bombarded with the images and ideas of the coming Christmas celebrations. What once waited until after the Thanksgiving holiday has now become at least a two-month season of preparation…
