I just got back from coffee with Kristen Draskovic, who's visiting Fort Collins so her husband Jon can do some 'seminary business.' Almost two years ago she and I visited a Nigerian village where children had bulging stomachs, stick thin arms and legs, and brittle, red hair. Being a nutritionist, she was moved to tears. Later that year she went back to Nigeria with her husband; it was during those three months that Jon felt called to change his career path and apply to seminary.
They're just one example that you can't go to Faith Alive and come back the same. It could be your profession, your bank account, or your living habits, but be assured that your perspective will change after seeing God in action.
(Read my September 3 posting 'Fine, Thank You' to see photos of the village children this fall.)
