About this audiobook
Vanuatu, once the New Hebrides, is a paradise of islands where seeds bear fruit overnight. The air is warm, and the land is full of adventure. Giving up cannibalism for Lent uncovered a nation of hospitable, humble people with a deep connection to the environment. The culture, always deeply spiritual has and in more recent centuries become Christian. Yet behind the Gospel singing of these "happiest people on earth" lies a puzzle: Is God for us?
In July 2001, confused by grief while launching a global mission, Conrad agreed to visit Port Vila. He stood in for a friend, teaching 80 Presbyterian pastors at their first Evangelism Seminar. Nervous about entering an unknown context, he invited a brash evangelist onto his team. They clashed, but they also flew. Supernatural experiences caused them to agree that they may never again witness such amazing phenomena.
The handwritten journals from that South Pacific mission were lost, but recently found. Relieved to recover the original record of his life-changing experiences, Conrad decided to publish them. Here they are, two decades later, revealing the events that changed him forever. Step back in time and share the surprise he felt each time God released divine love within beautiful people.
