Faith Test
Many of us think we “know” what faith means. When it is time to put our faith in action, however, it’s another story.
“This Time, a Vicious Cycle is a Good Thing…”
The Wally Show met a woman named Ko who was a sponsored child and now works for our ministry. Ko still has the picture of her sponsors from 30 years ago on her desk.
“Lord, If You Had Come Earlier”
Jesus is quick to remind us and to demonstrate that it is never too late for God.
How Different (and Similar) are Compassion Canada and Compassion USA?
When it comes to sponsorship, there are a couple of ways in which Compassion Canada and Compassion USA are different, and several ways that we are the same.
Miracles of God
People may have the same purposes and goals, but it is the journey that determines the strength of a vision.

Pictures of Poverty
We’re publishing pictures of poverty on a daily basis at picturesofpoverty.com. They are meant to show the dignity and hope which can be found in extreme poverty, if you look, despite the oppression poverty inflicts upon them
Tears
Tears are a gift from God because they help us live without any facades. We are seldom more real and truthful than in the moments when our tears flow.
The Gift of Our Work
You and I have been gifted with an incredible blessing from the Lord. Today as you go about your work, be mindful of the amazing gift that you have been given.
A Spirit of Power and Love
Seeing how hard poverty hits those who have the least can rob you of peace. Does fear ever stop you from doing something?
Admitting Failure
Just as we in the developed world can’t guarantee how our children are going to “come out,” we can’t control how a child in the developing world will “come out.” We need to be free to admit “failure,” because that’s how we learn.
They Have Something
In Jesus’ time, children were not appreciated by society. Children and women were of such little value that the story of the feeding of the multitude mentions only five thousand men, overlooking the women and children completely.
