You are not an accident. Your parents may not have planned you, but God did. He wanted you alive and created you for a purpose. Focusing on yourself will never reveal your purpose. You were made by God and for God, and until You understand that, life will never make sense. Only in God do we discover our origin, our identity, our meaning, our purpose, our significance, and our destiny.

With Your Support, God’s Truth is Being Shared Each Day

• A Christian teen addicted to porn

• A college student with a positive herpes test

• A young mom condemned by her family

Your support made it possible for us to minister to these three individuals in desperate need of God’s encouragement, truth and love.

Aiden* submitted a question to “Talk to Taylor” on our IDecideForMe website. He stated “I am addicted to pornography...I hate it and I realize how damaging it is.” He goes on to say that he wants to talk to his parents or pastor but he’s too ashamed, and pleads for our help.

Because of you, we were there to  tell him he wasn’t alone and assure him that his parents and pastor were there for him and would provide the accountability he needed to break free of this addiction. We pointed him to Christian porn addition websites and gave him practical steps he could take to guard his eyes and heart. Most importantly, we encouraged him to pray and assured him we would be praying for him as well.

Sophia* came to LifeCare Testing Clinic with her boyfriend and  they both tested positive for herpes. She was devastated by the diagnosis and at a loss to know what to do about her relationship.

Because of you, we were there to not only take care of her physical needs, but address her spiritual health as well. We asked her what she knew about the person of Jesus, and she said she didn’t know much. We shared the gospel, gave her a Bible and directed her to read about the Samaritan woman to understand God’s love and compassion for her. We talked about how we often fill our lives with unhealthy things in an attempt to fill the void of God in our lives. Sophia replied, I’ve tried everything else, but never tried Jesus. Maybe that’s what I need.”

Madison* came to us for a safe sleep class and shared she was concerned because a “religious family member” had told her she had no hope of heaven because her parents had not been married.  She felt like she and her baby were both condemned because of choices her parents had made.

Because of you, we were there to share the truth of the gospel and the hope we all have through Jesus Christ. Madison was very thoughtful during our discussion. She accepted a Bible and several brochures presenting the gospel message. We encouraged her to come back in if she had questions, and also to visit churches in our community. She cried when we prayed for her sharing that she couldn’t remember a time when someone had taken the time to pray for her.

Thank you for supporting this work with your time, talents and treasure. Because of you, we’re able to offer encouragement for the future to those who had no hope.
