Eleven.

Diving in.

"As I reflect back on my four years on the border [between the U. S. and Mexico], [my] first Bible study continues to form how I understand my calling, our mission as Christians and as a border ministry. Whereas, it is more comfortable to keep our distance from the hurts and pains of the world (and we even at times try to keep our distance from our own hurts and pains), God shows us a different path. We are to follow God who enters into the joys and suffering of a broken world to be in relationship with us and witness to God's love, justice, and peace."
~Mark Adams
