Imitate me, just as I imitate Christ
When the principal was transferred to another school, I was appointed principal. I was the only Christian school principal in Battambang province. My fellow principals looked down on me and called me Jesus-Jesus. I said to them, “You can mock me but please do not mock my God.”
Perfect love casts out fear
When I was very young, my brother was possessed by an evil spirit. To cure him, the shaman told us to sacrifice animals. Eventually my brother recovered but only after we had sacrificed all our livestock and the numerous chickens we borrowed from our relatives and neighbours.
One open book, many open hearts
The children gasped. One child covered his gaping mouth with both hands. Another child covered her ears. In Timor-Leste, people believe that if you start counting the stars and fail to count them all, you will be cursed and die.
I love teaching Bible Knowledge
At primary school Tanzanian students study in Swahili, but all secondary school subjects are taught in English. This presents a challenge but also an opportunity.
