Testimonies

This passed week Watcharapon church of Christ celebrated its 8th anniversary. This was a great time to look back and see how God has been working to grow and strengthen His church in Bangkok. In true Thai style, the anniversary was celebrated with speeches, shows, and lots of food.

The Americans were invited to do a skit at the celebration. Usually we like to be entertaining and make our shows funny and crazy, but this time we decided to do something a little more serious "cardboard testimonies" (f.y.i. this was not an original idea), in this skit each person holds up a cardboard with their testimony written on it. On one side something they struggled with or a sin that had control of their lives is written, and on the other how God helped with that sin or struggle and changed their life.

We wanted to share this skit with our family at Watchrapon because it impacted us so powerfully when we watched it, to see how God's power and grace is evidenced when we share the story of our weaknesses and His strength, and the beauty of a person telling you how they lived in darkness, but have been set freed by Christ.
