All I want for Christmas is…

Saturday, January 9th, 2010 by Sonny & Cher

An atheist 2 months ago, the first time we shared the gospel with
Andy something ignited in his heart. I could tell from the
questions he asked and the way he looked at me that he realized
there was something more out there. And he was hungry to know the
truth.

Last Seat on the Bus

Sunday, October 25th, 2009 by Sonny & Cher

In my little circle of 5, God showed up powerfully. As I began to
share God’s story, students peppered me with questions trying to
understand more about how to have a relationship with God. As I
shared more about Jesus, one girl exclaimed, “This is incredible!”

Peanut Butter Cookies

Snake and Vicky are searching for something more in life. Something
real, something eternal. And I have a feeling not too many weeks
from now they are going to find it…

A Few Stories!

Saturday, November 22nd, 2008 by Sonny & Cher

Eighteen young foreigners packed into a living room, sitting on couch arms, entertainment centers, plastic stools, and the hard tile floor. This is what every Monday morning looks for me as I meet with our teams in each city for their weekly church service. As much as I love worship and the Bible, my favorite [...]

Here Come the Artists

Thursday, October 16th, 2008 by Sonny & Cher

Her name is Karen. She is a graduate student in art criticism at a top 10 university. Suffice it to say, she’s a smart cookie. She was also one of the students that Cher and I got to invest in most last year. We did a foundations class for the future leaders of one of [...]

Dark Alley – Big Vision

Saturday, September 27th, 2008 by Sonny & Cher

We wandered through the creepy, narrow alleyways of an old apartment complex after dark until we found the entrance. Then the two other Campus Target leaders and I (Sonny) began to climb the flights of stairs. As we approached the 4th floor, we heard a sound calling us to our destination. It was singing. We [...]

16 garbage bags full

Thursday, May 22nd, 2008 by Sonny & Cher

As I sit typing I feel the gentle swaying of an aftershock in my building. The past 10 days have been surreal. In the city where we are, which was very close to the earthquake, there was very little in the way of injuries and damage. I know of no deaths or collapsed buildings. But [...]

Undercover

Friday, May 2nd, 2008 by Sonny & Cher

“Okay, I'll be there in about five minutes. Just…stay undercover,” he said in his British accent. Knight had just called our ministry contact (we'll call him ‘John') to let him know we'd arrived on the campus and would be waiting for him at the front gate of the university. Undercover? Rozanne, Knight, and I (Cher) [...]

Kung Fu Wisdom

Sunday, April 6th, 2008 by Sonny & Cher

“I understand it all clearly for the first time,” exclaimed my language teacher as he stared at the words, characters, charts, and pictures I had drawn all over the board. It looked like a scene out of “A Beautiful Mind.” On Fridays we have been studying Christian words to help me learn the vocabulary for [...]

Where’s my helicopter…

Sunday, March 16th, 2008 by Sonny & Cher

As I raced through the light Saturday traffic on my undersized mountain bike, my mind flashed back to an exciting childhood memory. My dad was preaching at a church in Texas and immediately after the service they flew him (and me!) by helicopter to a satellite church where he spoke. That would be nice right [...]
