Have you ever wished you could do something totally different with your life? Have you ever wondered what it would be like to step out of the ordinary and into the......UNKNOWN?
This book, written from Michelle's (Julia James is her pen name) experiences of living in Asia, is for everyone who is interested in stepping out of the ordinary and into God, in whatever way He is calling. It is written for anyone who is interested in missions and obeying Jesus' command to GO. It may be that you are already involved. If so, we would like to share with you some experiences you may be able to relate to. It may be that you sense God is speaking to you about getting involved. We pray that this book will help you be inspired to follow His call and see some of the realities. It may be that reading this book is your first peek into missions. If so, you are at the beginning of an exciting adventure!
This is our story. Everyone's will be different. God called us to leave England and step into China. How God calls you to step out will be different to the way He called us. The important thing is that we hear and obey God. That's when we change, things happen and God is glorified!

WHY ARE THE WORKERS SO FEW? free
In Luke 10:2, Jesus made a statement that has been repeated countless times by those with a heart for world mission:
"The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out labourers into His harvest."
Why, when the harvest set before us is so large, are the workers required to bring in the precious souls from the earth, so few?
This article, written by Stuart (under his pen name) highlights the reasons Jesus Himself gives just prior to making the statement, about how people respond to thte great harvest of souls in our world.
