People who do not know the Lord ask why in the world we waste our lives as missionaries. They forget that they too are expending their lives and when the bubble has burst they will have nothing of eternal significance to show for the years they have wasted.

Nate Saint, martyr

He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose. Jim Elliot, martyr Share on X

I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have sufficient courage so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.  For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.

the apostle Paul, Philippians 1:20-21
