WHAT PEOPLE SAY
IVORY
In 1 Corinthians 10, Paul says we should show people how to follow Jesus through our actions—seeking “the good of many” (32–33). That’s what Sarita and Steven have done throughout the years I’ve known them. Through their actions, they invite the world to believe in God and “follow the example of Christ.”
YUDEL
God’s word is the basis for their ministry and that has made a huge impact on my life.
