John 3:16 and Me

David Alan Black / Dave Black Online:
The famous Swiss theologian, Karl Barth, was once asked what he thought was the most profound truth of Christianity. Thoughtfully he responded, 'Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so.' No other biblical truth is as compelling to me as that one. As everyone knows, I am not a missionary in the technical sense. I had a total of one missions course at Biola. I have no missiological acumen. But I do have a missionary heart and a zeal for evangelism. And the “harvest field” that our Lord spoke of most certainly includes Ethiopia, where my wife and I invest our vacation time twice a year.
