The EVANgeCUBE

Looking for an evangelism tool that's fast, fun and focused?

Check out Evangecube! Reminiscent of the Rubik's Cube, the Evangecube will help you walk friends through the Gospel presentation using pictures. Flip one way, and show man's separation from God. Flip again, and you'll see Jesus stepping from the tomb.

Some suggested uses:

• Great tool for children to use in presenting the Gospel to their friends! Equip and train every child in your church.
• Great tool for presenting the Gospel across cultures or to non-readers. The clear pictures help guide viewers through the complete presentation.

On Purpose
And we know in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28

When a cowboy applied for an insurance policy, the agent asked, "Have you ever had any accidents?" After a moment's reflection, the applicant responded, "Nope, but a bronc did kick in two of my ribs last summer, and a couple of years ago a rattlesnake bit me on the ankle.""Wouldn't you call those accidents?" replied the puzzled agent. "Naw," the cowboy said, "they did it on purpose!"

That story reminds me of the biblical truth that there are no accidents in the lives of God's children.

We read how Joseph interpreted a difficult experience that had seemed like a great calamity. He had been thrown into a pit and then sold as a slave. This was a great test of his faith, and from the human standpoint it appeared to be a tragic case of injustice, not a providential means of blessing. But Joseph later learned that "God meant it for good" (see Genesis 50:20).

Are you passing through the deep waters of trial and disappointment? Does everything seem to be going against you? These apparent misfortunes are not accidents. The Lord allows such things for a blessed purpose. So patiently trust Him. If you know the Lord, someday you will praise Him for it all!

What looks like just an accident When viewed through human eyes, Is really God at work in us— His blessing in disguise. —Sper

God transforms trials into triumphs.

Pictures from the House of Lolas Connie and Ging. They usually visit 3 to 4 times a week there ...

These pictures were taken just last week sa PRAYER MOUNTAIN at Bago City. We went there with the YX Leaders. A time of planning, praying and preaching for them -- to pay the price of LEADAERSHIP. Trix, Josh and I were there -- thank the Lord for the Pajero of Sister Liz ... it really made our trip pleasant and secure.
