Halfway There | Christian Testimonies | Spiritual Formation, Growth, And Personal Experiences With God

Today, he shares the story of how God has led him to this position. The stories that Doug shares of the big events in his life that challenged his trust in God like resisting God’s call to ministry, finally surrendering, and serving as a missionary in the Republic of Congo (then Zaire) where refugees streamed across the boarder from the civil war in Rwanda.

Great quotes from Doug: I would say the greatest part
