"To move man through God by prayer alone" Hudson Taylor, Missionary to China. As stated before I am reading his biography and this statement is in it many times as it is one of the foundational spiritual concepts of this life of faith. It has really made me think. How do we move people today?
MEDIA (print, voice, visual), COERCION, GUILT, SHAME, FEAR . . . we probably could go on and on here.
As a communicator I run the risk every time I stand up to speak that I am crossing that invisible line of manipulation that nobody can see with their naked eye and sometimes cannot even feel it in their heart.
I know that I have to speak and preach that is my calling. Lord, let my words and motives be yours. ALL OF YOU AND NONE OF ME.
I would enjoy some feed back if you feel like you would not be trying to twist my arm. LOL

|I just finished reading the book, "SAFELY HOME" by Randy Alcorn, and was really moved with deep respect for all the missionaries working in China, India, etc.
I would like to learn more about your ministry to China. I write a Christian based Journal.
