This month, we're in a community in Malaysia teaching English. The region where we're living doesn't allow us to preach the Gospel and to protect our contacts, we can't even mention the name of Jesus to anyone we talk to.
We can't preach the gospel. We can't talk about Jesus. So what's a missionary to do?

My favorite song is Call Me Maybe.

My favorite food is fried chicken.
My favorite in the sky is the rainbow.
Sometimes, preaching the love of God doesn't mean using words but instead bringing joy and laughter into the darkest places.
