Protection. Prayer. Providence. People.
People throughout history have shared stories to entertain, to inform, to inspire. Christ’s people do this, but even more than that, they tell stories to testify to the mighty acts of their God. The stories in this book testify to God’s protection in times of war, on journeys, from enemy attacks and in everyday life. They tell of prayers answered. They proclaim the Father’s care, in providing what His people need at the very moment they need it.
WEC – Worldwide Evangelization for Christ – is a mission organization founded by C.T. Studd and Alfred Buxton in 1913. There are nearly 2,000 full–time members from over 50 nations working in 70+ locations around the globe. WEC UK & Ireland is made up of several hundred members. These stories come from among their ranks.
Each written by an ordinary Christian, in their own words, these stories will challenge and encourage you. You will find yourself asking what might happen if you stepped out in faith.

Like Mary Magdalene, who ran to tell the disciples she had seen the risen Christ, the faithful, ordinary men and women in Only One Life have seen Christ alive and at work in our day in the power of His rising—and are eager for us to see Him, too.
