Salvation comes to a woman in China
Another story of a life transformed through the power of the gospel! Evelyn*, a missionary in China writes: “Would you tell me some Bible stories?” Lin* asked.

Cody’s story: Jesus has changed my life

The right key
“I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture” (John 10:9 NIV). It was one of those days that are irrevocably engraved on his memory, and the small details remain vivid to this day. He can still remember the fresh autumn air on […]
From a muddy pond to pure, life-giving water
Many, these days, seem to borrow religious ideas from a variety of sources. Claude* was one such individual. In his mid-fifties, Claude was very religious.
