Responding to the Nudge | Ian John
Playback speed
Having grown up attending rough schools and seeing high levels of deprivation in classmates' lives, Ian felt called to teach in tougher areas where few want to go. When I last saw him, a young man that week had tried to stab him in the eye! But he loves his job, his kids, and the regular opportunities to share his faith. And then, a few years ago, he gave himself a challenge of stepping out of his comfort zone consistently. Dozens of salvations and healings later, he’s lost count of all that God has done through him. Be inspired and challenged by how he has lived out what any of us could likewise do!
