"Had God provided a miracle just for us?" In thirty years as missionaries in Columbia and Guatemala, John and Esther Shackelford saw God work in big and small ways. Read about the Mayan men who knocked on the door asking to accept Jesus Christ. Smile at the enthusiastic bandit who encouraged others to come to Christ - at gunpoint. See how God provided protection when Esther was robbed, and escape from an isolated town during a revolution, and help during a major earthquake. John's primary work was youth leadership development at his camp, Monte Sión, and you'll be moved as you see how God changed lives for the Kingdom. John delights in praising God in these stories of the people he loved and served with joy and hopes his readers will too.
