Heard about this on the radio this morning. I thought how amazing it would be if we had this in the USA. I wonder how many who claim to be lovers of Christ in the USA would be able to live Romans 1:16 in this way; "For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God to salvation..."
So maybe you are not in Nairobi to join in the marathon, but you could support their projects to translate bibles into the mother tongues of unreached communities of Kenya. In country claiming to be 80% Christian these tribes are mostly Islamic or Anamist and destined for eternal destruction.
From the radio program, I heard the following from people who hear and read the Bible in their own language:
"I can read Kiswahili and English, but it's not as if it's my mother tongue."
"Jesus speaks my language!"
"When I hear God's words in mother tongue, I can see it with my heart."
Let's not be ashamed! Mark 8:38 "If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes in his Father's glory with the holy angels."
