Obligation.
Obligation. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is not to stop with us; it is to spread with us. We are Plan A, there is no Plan B. If we know Jesus, we are obligated to tell the world; and not just the world in our own backyard. THE world. In Romans 1:14-15, Paul writes:...

The Real 1%
The Real 1% During our recent GI trip to the Middle East, we were once again confronted with the reality of our spiritual enemy. Christianity is simply not welcome in our world. Jesus was killed...
School. Food. Jesus
School. Food. Jesus. Not every kid hates school. Shocking, I know. Quality education at any level is very often a luxury in most of the places where GI works and ministers. In Ghana, West Africa, as...
