Nik and Ruth Ripken join us to discuss The Insanity of God and their story of God’s faithfulness.
Some highlights from today’s episode include:
“On the mission field, you can’t look at lost people in the eye and say ‘I want to quit.'”
“When our son died, it’s not that it didn’t rip my heart out, it just felt like it was our turn.”
“Our kids would be stoned off their bikes in South Africa because they were mistaken for Afrikaners.”
“Until you cross the street to be with people, you don’t really realize who they are.”
“What is it going to cost us to share Christ with our neighbors?”
“It’s in the context of breaking bread with others that walls come down in our lives.”
“The loneliest person in the church is the pastor.”
