We had raised money for our mission trip, but any extras were on us. The first provision surprised me. I went to a neighborhood community fair with some friends from church who did…

40:40 Day 3
Today’s God Showed Up is one I heard from Francis Chan, a dynamic Chinese-American pastor from California. Francis is serious about God and heartbroken about the state of the church in America.
