Staff at a Christian international school

I joined PTW (which later on came to be WIM) after campus. From the very first classes I was very excited to be part of it because I was eager to learn and to know more of Christ; not only to learn but also for my life to be changed through it all.

That has indeed been my experience throughout this year. I can summarize one aspect that impacted me most. I have discovered how God’s wisdom surpasses ours: what we like to call basics of the Gospel are in fact the essentials and deep doctrines which are hard to correctly grasp though most of the time we are tempted to think we know them. Sometimes when a truth which you already know (like say FAITH) is spoken, you feel like saying; “let’s jump this, we all know that, let’s talk about something more profound and sophisticated”. That’s what comes to our carnal mind full of pride. It sometimes happened to me but my prayer was always to overcome such evil thoughts because I knew it would happen so, my mind was at war.

I eventually came to realize the Gospel is not like the newspaper which expires just after it is read. Rather, it is always new, amazing, interesting, challenging. All this is because the Gospel is not our story, it is God’s story and since it is His, it surpasses us and probes us so deep we never get fed up with it. I thank God Almighty for giving me opportunity to be a part of WIM classes in the first year and I hope for further and greater grace in this second year.
