How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?
-the apostle Paul



My friend Nick is sharing the gospel with people in the Phillipines. He's been there for a couple months. He canoed up a river to share with people who have never heard the gospel. There's no churches, no pastors, no Christian schools, no WWJD? bracelets, no Jesus Loves You coffee mugs and no metal fish stuck on the back of rusty pick up trucks. No one has ever gone to share the good news of Jesus at any time.

This is a picture he took of a Filpino woman crying over the fact that Jesus died for her. She didn't know.

"If sinners be damned, at least let them leap to Hell over our bodies. If they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees. Let no one go there unwarned and unprayed for."
-Charles Spurgeon
