Travel Guide

Yemen

Despite there being several places in the story, none of them are key to the story. Yemen and its culture are the focus. Audra moves there to convert or is it help the women there by talking about Christianity and its ideals and trying to convert them.

“I realized that what made me strong was living strength, given by Someone who could only supply it if He was alive. “You are Messiah!” I whispered.”

“The difference in my faith was that Jesus is alive. I talked with Him, and He talked with me because He was not someone dead and gone. He interactively and authoritatively reigned in my life. Whether I had been taught about Him or taught about someone else did not change who He is. It did not stop His living presence. No teaching or religion could change or substitute that.”
