there are lots of stories like that but it is still interesting to hear them or read them but we don't get all gushy about it.

Chacha, yes I definetly did not expect that from you of all people.
Dove, who exactly do you help learn about God? Like do you help people who don't have a religion or people who already have a religion? Just wondering.

That's a good question. My church has been doing this mission trip for 11 years, going to the same village. I actually have no idea whether they were not Christians before we started going or not...but we helped them build a church and since then have been making improvements every year. This year we bought tiles to cover the floor, so it's not dirty gray stone. They are definitely Christian though. And they have 2 pastors...one older, one younger.

Because I don't like the idea of annoying people who are loyal to their own religion into being Christians.

But if being Christian is the only way to get into Heaven...

Which is your point of view. What I think is that if your God really is awesome and all why won't he accept the Jews or the Hindus or Buddhists? I'm not trying to be accusing but just trying to learn more.
