My name is Linda Choi MacDonald
Born into a Christian family, I honestly believed I was a “good” Christian all my life - church, tithe, missions, Sunday School teacher etc. However, in His infinite love and grace, Jesus revealed the magnitude of my sin - pride, self-reliance, covetousness, faithlessness etc. Over the last few years, each step towards Christ has been challenged with a kind of spiritual warfare unlike I have ever experienced. A loving husband, successful career, beautiful homes and exotic travel … all idols that couldn’t save me from this most dark and evil spiritual warfare.
Amidst these trials is when I started to listen to the Unashamed podcast, where I first learned of Larry Bowles’ mission for Muslim refugees at the ACRO Center through One Kingdom, which then led me to truly infusing Jesus Christ and the Bible into every nook and cranny of my life.
As a child of North Korean Christian parents, my heart went out to the Muslim refugees, and to the courage of the new refugee believers to evangelize against the backdrop of their fears and the dangers in spreading the gospel. As North Korean Christian, my grandmother cherished her Bible more than anything in the world, which she kept hidden in the lining of their blanket. Discovery meant torture and death for her and her entire family. On the journey to escape North Korea, a Communist discovered her priceless, tattered Bible, and he spat on His Holy Word. However, upon relinquishing her entire life savings to this Communist, she was able to safely protect and carry her Bible across the 38th parallel into South Korea and freedom.
Now, from the boardroom to the mission field, I pray for the strength He granted my grandmother, and for Jesus to teach me His way, as He did for King David, so that I can serve as a vessel to advance His Kingdom every moment of my life.

Hi my name is Sterling, I am fifteen. When I was three the Lord began to work in my heart through Bible stories in my favorite bible story book that my mom would read to me every day. The one that stood out to me was the story of Jesus ascending into heaven, I have always been interested in flying so when I heard that Jesus floated into the air, I figured that God could do anything. I prayed and accepted him into my heart right then and there. The Lord used many situations in my life, stubborn though I was, to teach me about him. Not long after I accepted Christ, my little sister was born. I tried to teach her the same things I was learning even though she was too young to understand, God was able to let her understand anyway. There were many more ways God has used to teach me like through my work, my chores, Reading the Bible, even things I don’t particularly like. One of my favorite things is when God teaches me something through nature while I hike in the mountains, from the way the hills were carved out of the solid rock by the flood of Noah’s time, to the ancient windblown trees on that mountain that have been there for thousands of years, showing just a shadow of what the forest used to be. Down to the finding of sea shells there at 7500 feet above sea level, now that’s something! Sometimes God uses our teaching to other people to show us something we never knew before, like when I was memorizing bible stories at a ministry to teach to other kids. There is also a lot God has taught me as I garden and farm, like the amazing things plants do, I even learn while I catch toads and frogs and caterpillars to watch them. And if I ever doubt something He may say, “Come I have more to show you.” His story is definitely my story.
Hi my name is Autumn Wilson and His story is my Story.
When I was very young, my brother shared the gospel with me persistently. He had been saved not too long before. I accepted Jesus just to get my brother off my back, but He came into my heart and life anyway!
Soon after I was saved, God spoke to me in a very personal way. That experience helped strengthen my faith. I have been blessed to read through the Bible by the time I was seven. I have been reading it regularly ever since. Since then he has caused special things to happen in my life. One example is that he miraculously provided a piano teacher who was also a pastor’s wife. She and her husband have become very good friends to us. Her husband baptized our whole family in the lake recently too.
My sister lately was married and moved out and left a big gap in our family. But God has made these past years very special to us. An example is that I got to go on a mission trip to Oklahoma City before I was actually old enough because my brother and mother were going.
I want to share the truth. I am Autumn Wilson and His story is my story.

My name is Don Wilson
I didn’t become a Christian until I was in my mid-thirties. My wife gave me a bible and I read it through several times. I have found some bible teachers that have opened my heart to God’s word. When I was growing up the Vietnam war was going on. The nightly reports of the flag-draped coffins coming back felt like death was final and there was no hope. After I graduated high school I joined the Navy, I was not a Christian then and lived my life for all I could get out of it. Many years passed before my perspective changed, and I think God was still working on my heart. I have come to believe that life is a precious gift from God.
Fast forward many years and I am seeing friends, family, and rock stars I once looked up to, die off, seemingly without accepting Jesus as their Lord and Savior. I believe there is only one way to get to heaven, and that is through belief in Jesus and accepting him as your Lord and Savior.
Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter through the narrow gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction. But small is the gate and narrow is the way that leads to life, and only a few find it.”
When my younger brother turned 60 he got sick and was in the hospital, he signed a “Do not resuscitate” form. When I arrived he was still conscious and recognized me, I talked to him about receiving Jesus into his heart, He was reluctant and I’m not sure if he did or not. In a few days he was gone. It saddens me to think he may have gone the way of the wide gate and the broad road.
Our bodies are finite but our soul lives on forever, choose life and live it more abundantly. I am eternally grateful to Jesus my Savior.

Hi I’m Danielle Wilson…
This story is my testimony to tell, but my story is actually just a piece of His amazing Story.
I am going on 58, but the moment that I became aware of Him writing on the pages of life was age 5.
My mom held a week-long evangelistic club on our lawn and invited friends and neighbors to come, for which I am now eternally grateful.
I accepted Christ at the club, but I want to point out that I had an ulterior motive for accepting Christ in addition to just being saved.
At age five, I definitely knew I was a sinner, and thankfully, I knew without a doubt, He was the only One, Savior.
However, if you accepted Christ at this club, you were made a member of a “lessons through the mail” club that would continue all year. My older sister had accepted Christ, and was in the “mailed lessons club”, and of course, I wanted to receive lessons as well. If it wasn’t for that “carrot” that this “donkey” wanted, I might have dug my hooves in and put off Christianity a dangerously long time?!
The miraculous thing is in my humanness, Christ responded, with a resounding, “Yes! I’ll come in right away and get started on My work!" It was a slow and painful work that I required from my Shepherd, but I never wanted for His attention.
One work He began in me is to teach me not to fear. I had been deathly afraid of old people from the time I was young. Now, as a maturing believer, I absolutely love older people! Especially, the older women that He puts in my life. He has blessed me so much with meeting and becoming good friends with older- than-me women. Women whose story He has written, and then He interwove my story too. He is the author and finisher of our faith.
First among these wonderful women is my mom, then my grandmothers, my aunt, and also my older sister. They all sowed His wisdom into my life. Then God connected me with a prayer partner who faithfully prayed with me and talked of Christ and encouraged me all the days of her life, til she was called home by Him. Thirteen years of praying together.
And then, as I unknowingly prayed for a “paradigm shift,” God answered with a BIG change in course for my husband and I. He spoke a verse into our lives that brought about our move from the place where my husband and I were born to settle 1500 miles away. You might know the verse well? Genesis 12:1…” "Now the LORD said to Abram, “Go forth from your country, and from your relatives, and from your father’s house, to the land which I will show you. '"
After I had grown up 20 years and been married for another 16 years in the same place, we moved from our homeland in the northeast US to the southwest of FL, then, eventually by many miracles, God moved us 2000 miles west to WY, and it seemed to begin, not just a new chapter, but a whole new sequel in life?!
As He moved us along, He allowed me to meet many precious older women of all kinds:
praise provides intimacy, thankfulness is the master key to life, contentment is great gain, money isn’t everything, submission to authority brings the blessings of obedience, manage the place God gives you, bloom where you’re planted, flexibility makes life easier, be consistent, speak the truth in love, be a cheerleader for Christ!
He does Amazing work! God has done all this, using the tools of His own handiwork. And God is so good through it all. His help through the tight spots and over tough places is where I really got to know Him.
I have come to love Him, not just want something from Him! All I need is His,“hope to the end! “
1 Peter 1:13.
