Join Russ Cotnoir, Director of Pastoral Resources at The Rephidim Project, as he shares this inspirational sermon illustration of the life story of a missionary named David Flood. David was a Swede who committed his life to Jesus Christ in his youth. He married a young woman named Svea who shared his commitment to Christ. They felt called to serve the Lord in Africa and arrived on those distant shores with their 2 year old son in 1921. With all their hearts they wanted to work among people who had never heard the gospel. As it turned out, the work was hard, the conditions horrible, and the people hostile and unresponsive. Their lives were constantly in danger. After tragedy struck, David decided to leave Africa and turned his back on the faith. What he didn't know was the one little boy he won to the Lord grew up to win that whole village to Jesus Christ. The one seed he planted just kept growing and growing. Today there are 600 African people serving the Lord because David was faithful to the call of God in his life. After nearly forty years of bitterness and despair, David Flood’s faith and joy were restored. Now, if the Lord can do that for someone like David Flood, then He can do it for you. It's never too late when you put yourself in the hands of Christ.
