Over the almost past half century my wife and I have ministered in over 125 countries seeing many thousands of people from every walk of life come to receive Christ. I have yet to meet one person who has been saved by the Grace of God say that they were sorry they became a Christian. That the day

John Wesley writes of his time: "Almost as soon as I was gone, two or three began to take their imaginations for impressions from God. Meantime, a flood of reproach came upon me almost from every quarter. Be not alarmed that Satan sows tares among the wheat of Christ.
"It has ever been so,

GOOD FATHER, GOOD WORKER
I had a conversation with a man named Bill Houghton, who was president of a large construction firm. Through the years, he had hired and managed thousands of employees, so I asked him, "When you hire an employee, what do you look for?"
