Arctic Adventure: Iditarod Outreach | By Brenda Crim

Facing the race of your life | By Wendy C. Brown

The raceway life is one of high-octane intensity and near-religious following. It’s also a culture suffering from great need of God’s presence in the lives of spectators and racers. Raceway Ministries provides hospitality, a listening ear, and God’s Word throughout the NASCAR season.

For MSC missionary Dick May, his job is to help bring revival to New England. As he shares the hope of Christ with people along the granite spiritual soil of Boston, he sees the light of God dawning on this darkened landscape.

Living in Santiago, Chile, Carlos and Cristina De La Barra were used to living the good life. But it wasn’t until he met a Southern Baptist missionary who was starting a church in his neighborhood that Carlos began to realize he was empty spiritually.
