On April 8, 2017, our eldest daughter Abigail was baptized following her profession of faith in Christ. After the event, as we stood outside and chatted with various friends who had attended, Pastor Mihailo approached me with a request. “I heard that you’ve been taking Abigail through the Bible First lessons at home.” I acknowledged that this was correct. “Would you be willing to do the same for our older kids at church?”

Joshua’s Kingdom of Little Girls. This was the endearing title once bestowed upon our family by my former language teacher, Veronica. And not without good reason! A family who can boast a string of four lovely daughters in a row is sure to win many admiring smiles, as well as the occasional quip about the absence of boys. Ukrainians in particular seem partial to girls, often reassuring us that, “Girls are so much better. They’re quieter. They’ll take care of you when you’re older.” Etcetera. “Still,” I would think to myself at times, “if God wanted to give me a son, I wouldn’t complain.”

Entrenched in centuries of religion and superstition, the people who live in these mountain communities often embody a sad yet all too common paradox: “They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him...” (Titus 1:16)

Here in Ukraine, it is common for children to go door to door and sing Christmas carols. This year, we had a couple of kids come to our door to sing, and after giving them the customary couple of grevenas (the equivalent of a few cents) we decided to offer them a copy of Good and Evil Short.

We are very pleased to report that the entire shipment of Good and Evil books has arrived at last. On Tuesday morning, we unloaded all four pallets of books in Lviv. We have a growing list of people who have received the short version of G&E, and have requested a full copy. We are thrilled that we can finally begin filling these requests. We believe that God will use this book to draw Ukrainians to Christ.
