| Introduction | The combined experience of two missionaries: We have forded waist deep crocodile and hippo infested rivers, stared down angry pythons, almost bumped into a wild bull elephant while walking through the bush (within 5 feet), and passed through villages where the only clothing consisted of leaves tied around the waist (that is, if they were wearing anything at all). We’ve been stoned, though none of the rocks hit us or our horses, had a machete swung at us, faced down the demon-possessed, jumped from an out control horse & buggy, had machine-guns pointed at us, driven over 3,000 miles in a buggy pulled by two horses, preached at a Brazilian drug-lord’s son’s birthday party, witnessed to a group of black-market gun dealers (while they were in the middle of a sale), lived seven years in a Mayan Indian village, braved many swarms of killer bees, and explored ancient Mayan caves. We’ve run from a yellow hooded-cobra while it ran from us, been chased by baboons, seen more fer-de-lances than we cared to, forded flooded rivers, used more bottles of Pepto-Bismol than I can keep track of, and lived fancily by faith since 1999... And, our venture for Jesus the Messiah continues... |
