'I KNOW IT WILL HELP YOU...'

BY SOLOMON WORKAR

It is important to share our love of God with our friends. It can help change lives and enrich our relationships with others and with God. The Apostle Paul compassionately pointed the Corinthian believers toward a life that was not self-centered but God-centered and focused on building up others: "You want the gifts of the Spirit. Then you should want the gift which will make you better able to help the church people" (Worldwide English New Testament, I Cor. 14:12).

I am an enriched beneficiary of such action, as a result of the sharing of God's love by a Christian Scientist.

Last year, because our evangelistic ministry of the Church of the Nazarene wanted to learn how to make video testimonies of war victims in Liberia, I e-mailed a film production company in California, hoping someone would come to Liberia to teach us.
