Transformation

15 Years in Peru with Jonathon Edwards

Where will God take us? What does He command of us? Are we ready for His direction, even if He guides us to places we’ve never imagined visiting, nonetheless moving to? Sandi Horen’s experience is so unique, and such a testament to God knowing what’s really best for us. Listen below to how a West Coast probation officer ended up teaching English on the African island of Madagascar, and how it almost all ended up crumbling to pieces, before God put it all back together in a way only He can.

This is such a fantastic testimony to God’s tremendous power to uproot, change, and stay good for all this lifetime, and the next. Listen as Corina goes from curious youngster in communist Romania, to born again Christian in the U.S., to a bible translating mission in the wilderness of Papua New Guinea. She details her struggles with physical abuse, worldly success, dealing with winning the trust of the natives in Papua New Guinea, and her role as a mother when it comes to mission work. I found Corina so relatable. My story doesn’t involve the physical places that she describes, but spiritually I felt so much in common with her. I hope you do to.

And be at peace among yourselves.

What's your cycle of desire, and how can you get off the human hamster wheel of seeking fulfillment without actually achieving it? This program shows you the true path to happiness is only found through Christ Jesus, and it's time to make a choice to serve Him. Scripture includes- Romans 6:10-14 10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. 11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. 12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. 13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. 14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. 1 John 2:17 17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. Matthew 16:26 26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Matthew 13:50 50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Titus 2:11-14 11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; 13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; 14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. Path to salvation scripture references: Romans 3:23 Romans 5:8 Romans 6:23 Romans 10:9 Romans 10:13

In chasing the things of this world comes despair, but in Jesus hope
