Summary

Yuri Lopez was a 6-year-old orphan in Honduras when she received an Operation Christmas Child shoebox gift. It was the first Christmas gift she had ever received and was the spark that began her relationship with Jesus. When she was at 13, she cried out to God and He answered her cry! Now Yuri works with Operation Christmas Child telling her incredible story and sharing the hope that is only found in Christ with all the young people she works with.

Yuri Lopez Show Notes:

There are still places around the world where the name of Jesus has never been heard. That's why Operation Christmas Child is sending the gospel, through simple shoebox gifts, to the ends of the earth. The Greatest Journey Follow-up discipleship program is teaching millions of children to put their faith in Christ, and how to share that faith with others. As a result, entire communities are being transformed. National Collection Week is November 15-22!

Build a shoebox online, and we will pack it for you based on the gift selections you make! Many of these shoebox gifts are delivered to hard-to-reach areas so that local believers can share the Good News in a culturally sensitive way.

0:00.0	Hi, Strong Women listeners, Sarah and I want to invite you to a very exciting book club that we're hosting this month.
0:08.1	We will be studying C.S. Lewis's Abolition of Man, which might be one of the most underrated C.S. Lewis books.
0:15.7	In the book, Lewis argues for the importance of universal values like courage and honor, values that are
0:23.2	far too lacking in this current cultural landscape.
0:27.9	And if you don't already have this book or would like to read it again with us, the Colson
0:31.8	Center is offering Abolition of Man plus Michael Ward's commentary on it for a donation of any amount.
0:38.6	You will also receive three videos by Michael Ward that will guide you as you read.
0:43.6	Use our special link to get this offer.
0:46.0	Breakpoint.org slash SW study.
0:49.3	That is breakpoint.org slash SW study.
0:53.8	When you donate through our special link, you will also receive the opportunity to join us

1:08.3	You can find more information about the book club on our Strong Woman Facebook page.
1:13.9	And to persuade you that this study will be something you will not want to miss, we will

1:21.7	We make men without chess and expect from them virtue and enterprise.
1:27.0	We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst.
1:31.5	We look forward to discussing this book with you.
1:38.8	Welcome to the Strong Women podcast, where we explore a deeper understanding of the humanity, value,
1:46.5	intellect, and creativity of women.
1:49.0	I'm your host, Sarah Stone Street.
