Fools for Christ

On the road again (to Boise)

On the road again (to Boise)

(France) What? Are you crazy? Sell the house, car, and belongings, pack up and leave the kids, family, and church? Out of our minds? Fools in the eyes of the world? You bet! What does it take? Obedience and willingness to follow the Lord, wherever He leads, whatever the sacrifice!

Kevin and Angie Quantrell, recently appointed as IMB missionaries to Paris, France, are willing to obey and go. “When we look at what God gave up for us, His only Son, who died a horrible death on the cross, and what Jesus gave up, His rightful place in heaven with His Father, it doesn’t seem silly to sell it all and head overseas to follow Him. The world thinks we’re nuts for giving up careers, home, and family to go and tell people in France about Jesus. What seems foolish to us is to ignore His command to go. He gave us everything, and He will take care of each little detail. Is He our Lord? Is He worth the sacrifice? Yes! Crazy would be saying no…”

We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are wise in Christ!…

(1 Cor. 4:10a)

Pray for Kevin and Angie as they live foolishly for the Lord, giving their lives as a living sacrifice for the One who gave all for us.
