You don’t have to be a FOCUS missionary to spread the gospel. Today, Gomer talks to Anthony, a FOCUS Team Director, about evangelizing through personal relationships.
Snippet from the Show
“We can talk strategies, but it’s really the Lord that does the heavy lifting. He’s the first mover, and so much of what I get to do is work alongside him, and see him working.” – Anthony
