One Month for Courage
It was a huge undertaking, hosting eight Muslim-background believers in our home for a month. They came from a neighboring country where there’s a growing movement of faith happening among Muslims—a movement we helped start years earlier before our visas were canceled by government authorities. When asked if we could […]
The Christmas Treasure
Inside our home, it’s a Christmas haven. We’ve put up simple decorations and there’s a constant stream of Christmas music playing. But outside our front door, every trace of Christmas disappears. It feels like another Central Asian November, with a bit more snow. Songs like “Silver Bells” feel out of place. We […]

In the Eye of the Storm
I braced my laptop under my arm and strapped a motorcycle helmet two sizes too small on my head. Squeezing between the baggage stacked up to my head and the large driver taking up the seat in front of me, we took off on the small motorcycle—a tiny speck zipping […]
There’s Something Different
Leslie and I are teammates who live in the heart of a conservative Muslim community. Before we moved here, this district had the country’s largest concentration of Muslims with no Gospel messengers living among them. It took over a year to find a home in the community. As two single […]
Salum’s Bible
“Did you remember the Bible?” I asked my husband as our family squeezed into the car. “I promised Salum we would bring it to him.” “Yep,” my husband said, smiling as he started the car and handed me the Bible. We met Salum, a Muslim man, in our first year on […]
