The Field

We are wanderers, explorers, travelers. Roaming the Earth, field by field, moment by moment…Seeking, searching, longing. Desperately wanting those we encounter to know what we know, to experience what we have experienced. A life change so beautiful, a grace so sufficient, a mercy so unfathomable, that we can’t possibly keep it to ourselves. This is our mission and is our purpose. To pursue the calling of Jesus to the ends of the Earth. Will you answer that call? The call to walk…the field?
