05/12/09  —  "If we had to buy your teachings, none of us would have been able to hear them…"

My wife and I live and work in a small town called George, which is on the southern tip of South Africa. I would just like to thank you for making your MP3 recordings free for downloading. Let me tell you why.

A few days ago a friend from church brought us a CD with an MP3 on it with some of your teachings. We have listened to it in our shop while we work. My wife and I and our staff have been hungry for more. It was to my amazement when I found on your website that we could download more teachings for free! What a blessing! Just to give you an idea on how you are blessing us, I would like to tell you about our staff’s backgrounds. There is a single mother living with tuberculosis and battles with her health. She lives in a wooden shack. We have another single mother who has problems with her teenage children and lost her job because of them. And finally, we have a married woman who left Zimbabwe with her husband with only the clothes on their backs! If we had to buy your teachings, none of us would have been able to hear them.

Since the first teaching that we heard a couple of days ago, we have been blessed. People have brought us food and given us money so that we could buy food and pay accounts. So, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
