Hey everyone, and welcome to another episode of the Vibrant Life Podcast. Today on the Podcast I have my dear friends Robert and Ann Horton.  Robert and Ann are absolutely incredible people that turned their life upside down 20 years ago by beginning a ministry in El Salvador of all places.  Today this Ministry SHIP international has impacted countless lives. They have a thriving Christian School in a gang filled area, provide low cost housing to women in need, and meet the physical needs of the mountain side like you wouldn’t believe.

They provide fresh water to those in the neighborhood, rebuild houses for those in need, and provide a source of income to numerous impoverished families. 

But more than any of that - they boldly proclaim the name of Jesus.  Their ministry is one of meeting physical needs to opening the doors to spiritual needs and my goodness have they been able to meet spiritual needs. 

They have on-sight marriage groups, Bible Studies, Discipleship efforts and community outreaches. They have seen entire families come to Jesus and seen missionaries launch from their ministry to share the gospel with others.

But this ministry didn’t start as a thriving organization with huge facilities and overwhelming influence in a difficult area to minister. 

Instead it started on a visit to El Salvador that was supposed to be a one time thing. It continued through small acts of faithfulness from God and a willingness to step through the doors that he opened.

In this episode we will hear the beauty in slow faithfulness in the same direction, how we don’t age out of sharing the gospel, and how God is longing to do a work in the lives of his people. 

Any time I get a chance to talk with Robert and Ann, I’m always encouraged to live boldly for Jesus and this time was no exception. 

I know you will be blessed with this conversation with my friends Robert and Ann Horton
