We spent most of our time in Cuba with Tony Fernandez, who is our field representative there. If you can’t figure it out, he’s the one in the yellow shirt in the above picture. On Monday, we spent the afternoon with Tony talking about our ministry and about future plans. I won’t bore you with the details, but I will share with you one quote from Tony. We give out Tony’s P.O. box number on our broadcasts, and he commented: “No one in Cuba gives out their address on a foreign radio broadcast. Nobody. If anything ever happens and I end up in jail, I just want you to know that it was my choice.”
Wow. “I just want you know that it was my choice.” I’ve been working on the 7 letters to the churches in Revelation. That’s exactly the sort of thing Jesus wanted to hear from the Christians in the province of Asia. “If I end up in jail, it was my choice.”
I’m often humbled by the honor of working with people of such faith.
