Dear Mom and Dad: An Adventure in Obedience

R.R. Smith poured her heart out in letters to her parents during the years she and her family lived in India. Honest confessions. Personal fears. Family joys. A mighty God. Her honest descriptions of her walk with Jesus inflame hope for what God can do when ordinary people simply obey His commands. The Smiths moved to India one week before 9/11. Over the course of the next several years, they learned a new language, endured illness, laughed their way through freak accidents, and hungered for fruit from among the lost. Ten years flew by. In 2011, they changed their ministry strategies to ones utilized by the apostle Paul and Jesus Himself, the resulting numbers surprised everyone. It all started with an honest evaluation of what it means to obey.
