Don't Waste Your Life in Iraq
April 12, 2007 | By: Abraham Piper | Category: Don't Waste Your Life, International OutreachA while ago, we sent a soldier in Iraq 25 copies of Don’t Waste Your Life. Here is part of a note he sent back to us:
We are currently working with the chaplains at Fort Benning, GA and Leonard Wood, MO to give 35,000 books to the soldiers that come through. We would love it if you helped. It only costs a dollar per book, so no gift is too small.
Also, if you are in the armed forces and would like to find out about receiving copies of Don't Waste Your Life to distribute, please email Carol Steinbach or call her at 888-346-4700.
I thought you might also like to know that the day I received the books in the mail my company had a last minute BBQ. While there, I was told I had mail and the timing was just perfect. Almost everyone in my company was at the BBQ, and I was able to give out most of them in less than 15 minutes. Many people were gripped by the title and said they were very interested in reading it.What a wonderful example of God using difficult times for his glory and the good of those who love him!
This has been an ongoing missions trip for me as it is my 2nd tour, and God has been gracious in providing study Bibles to give out to soldiers as well as Bibles in Arabic, Pakistani, and Indian languages for the civilians working here. The book was a perfect addition as the evangelism opportunities here are just enormous.
