It’s easy for me to forget how many others have contributed to any successes I’d be tempted to take credit for (Click to tweet). The last few years have been a wholesome but convicting journey confronting myself with people who have positively changed the direction of my life but haven’t received due gratitude from me. Especially when they’re teaching me something I need to hear but don’t necessarily want to.
Many hands make lots of healing!
If you’re reading this, you almost certainly know that the Healing Hereafter project has two beautiful goals. The first is using the free Healing Hereafter ebook series to provide rational and refreshing answers to most of Christianity’s really heard questions. The second is to heal every moment hereafter of the most suffering and neglected people possible. We do this through Bless BIG, which uses many global experts and hundreds of hours of research to recommend the cause groups and charities who will physically and spiritually heal the most people for your donations.
Praise God that both of these goals are succeeding! But neither would have even remotely been possible without so many folks providing advice, data, or examples along the way. Some of these come from the researchers above who have a similar degree of passion for healing hereafters as I do. Several of these I have highlighted and shared previously, but one person deserves the spotlight currently, and his name in Andy.
“Go make disciples of all nations” – Jesus
He doesn’t know I’m writing this yet, but he probably has worked harder than anyone I know to prospectively assess approaches to evangelism, discipleship, and missions that will make the best steward of your giving to fulfill the Great Commission. I feel it’s very important to comprehensively confirm such prospective suggestions with retrospective proof, but there’s no way to know where to start looking for such proof until you can narrow charities down with an excellent prospective model.
Andy has done an incredible amount of amazing work giving us all one, and I’m using the rest of this blog to refer you to his insights. Please read them. They offer a somewhat different perspective than what you’ve heard from me…and one I am very very thankful for. Thanks Andy for your love for God and your many global neighbors!
