  Faithful in Small Things - How...

  Watch God Turn Adversity to Mission! 
  	In this uplifting true story, follow Joeth Strickland as she overcomes childhood disabilities, endures 19 surgeries after a catastrophic collision with an 18-wheeler … and founds a ministry that today engages hundreds of Christians each year to support missions in 104 countries. 
  	“Satan keeps trying to take me out,” Joeth says, and she keeps persevering. As God grew her resources from a few boxes in the breezeway of her home to a 17,000 square foot warehouse, she learned over and over that “If it’s God’s will, it’s God’s bill.”  She also came to trust that what’s given for God will be needed by God, however odd the gift seems. So a barrel full of deep sea fishing line eventually helped people in Suriname to fish for food and 13 full pallets of neckties yielded tourniquets for the Ukraine war.  
  	Joeth’s life and ministry have been fueled by miracles: the miracle of overcoming infertility, her miraculous survival of a crash that should have killed her on the spot, the miraculous opportunities she has found to meet needs in hundreds of countries worldwide. She has seen God answer prayers for everything from a needed forklift to the salvation of volunteers. Her resilient response to setbacks keeps her driving toward the prize she sees in Jesus, and she’s ready to jump into any opportunity God places before her. She is firmly committed to global missions as a result of her own history as a child whose parents were led to Christ by missionaries while living overseas.  
  	You’ll be inspired as you see God work through injury, financial hardship, and the oddest of obstructions as Joeth keeps Crossing All Borders to serve God.

  You've felt it—the underlying anxiety that you're missing out on the good life. So you zone out, swipe up, slim down, work hard, and spin in circles trying to get it. 
   
   
   
  Anjuli Paschall calls it carpe diem syndrome—the fear of not living life to the fullest. 
   
   
   
  But the full life isn't found by chasing it. It's found by coming awake to it. As she puts it: "I want to be awake. I don't want to nervously navigate my life one to-do list, email, and espresso shot at a time. When my life comes to a slow halt, I want to know I savored the small moments and watched the sky change color. I want to know I didn't rush through life but received it. I want to know I came to peace with my weaknesses, loved people fearlessly, and walked with God faithfully. I hope I gave in to the audacious belief that I was loved and, miraculously, even liked." 
   
   
   
  And now, Anjuli casts a compelling vision for you to live a soul-awake life too. 
   
   
   
  The invitation might be as gentle as a song—or as abrupt as a rooster's crow—but God is always waking you up. You can have the life you really want, and you don't have to lose your soul trying to get it. 
   
   
   
  Breathe in. Breathe out. Full life is right here.
