Chip Sugar is known as a “horse whisperer,” someone whose relationship with the large animals goes beyond that of most men. He uses horses to share the Gospel in Mexico.

Horse whisperer offers Christ to lost

Speaking of missions

 

Missions by the Book: They spoke boldly

"After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly" -- Acts 4:31, NIV.

Quotable: "I felt such peace"

"I felt this struggle going on. It lasted for days and then I just prayed. I asked for forgiveness and asked Christ to come into my life. It's so hard to find the words, but it felt so good. For the first time in my life, I felt such peace." --  Alik*, a believer in Kyrgyzstan, about the day that changed his life

*Name changed

Read how this believer coped with his young son's fight with cancer.

Illustration: A simple telling

A Chinese professional in his late 20s had tried Buddhism, Confucianism, Daoism and Qigong, but nothing seemed to give his life meaning. Two years ago, he was visiting in a tea house when he saw a man smiling. He asked the man what made him happy, and the man told him about Jesus. He trusted in the Savior and was immediately welcomed into a house church. The new believer was amazed to be fully included in the small group worship. He was also involved as they set aggressive goals to reach many thousands for Christ. He now is a part of a church-planting movement under way in a large China city.

Pray that increasing numbers of Chinese believers will commit to making Christ known by telling others how He has changed their lives. Find more prayer requests for East Asia.
