Greenville University to Accept Donations for Printing of BASIC CHRISTIANITY Lecture Series

Dear Friends,

Greenville University has offered to collect TAX DEDUCTIBLE donations for the overseas printing of: BASIC CHRISTIANITY.  

We're well on our way with $4,500 of the $12,500 needed donated.  This will dramatically lower the price of the hard copy editions for worldwide distribution.

This book will bolster the faith of many minds, if we can get it printed and distributed, like we have with thousands of other books and DVDs around the world. 

If you want to help, write out a check to: "Greenville University," and on the Memo Line write "BC Printing Sponsor." 

Mail your check to:

Office of Advancement

This opportunity is not explained in the video below, since it just happened.

Hardback copies are available (now) for those of you who can't wait for us to get the price down. And PDFs can be downloaded within minutes. Dive in. This is rich, faith building material. What are we talking about? CLICK HERE.

GOD, THE GREAT "SADISTIC" STORYTELLER

GOD, THE GREAT "SADISTIC" STORYTELLER

(on how our lives are much like Sarah's)

by Yvonne W. Bao

For the last 14 years, Yvonne worked in Asia to fight against hunger and human trafficking. She has recently moved to Germany in pursue of a new life and career. I have had the privilege of getting to know her via email and Skype. She may guest blog here from time to time.

It dawned on me that God is a great storyteller. By that, I mean, he certainly has the ability to spare us all the setbacks and suspense we normally experience as humans. He could just hand out to us whatever he has in mind in a blink of the eye. Didn’t he once simply utter: “Let there be…” and lo, there they were, the heaven and the earth and all that is in between.

So, any delay in the deliverance of his promise is obviously not a matter of competency. Could it be one of discretion then? Perhaps he could have refrained from stirring our heart with a vision or dream from him just before its immediate fulfillment, in case the Enemy who is diligently “patrolling the earth” would surely try to undermine the little faith we humans do have.

No sacrilege is attempted but as my walk with God prolongs, I couldn’t help noticing and being alarmed that he seems to "sadistically" enjoy the emotional havoc that the waiting process wreaks in the fickle human heart...and body, too. Or, to say the very least, he's perhaps, well, just stoically indifferent to our suffering.
