This sunday fifth week, there will be a movie screening of the story of William Carey.
He's a missionary that went to India to spread the gospel. Throughout his years, there were struggles and obstacles that even led him to question : is it really God's will to bring him there? or it's just his own desires. The movie really impacted me, in the sense that a superstitious environment can be so evil. A place without God can be so scary. Also, when there's a lack of support from family members can become a burden for someone serving God.

Here's some learnings point that I've gained from the video. I encourage you to watch the video, you can also gain a lot of insight!

  1. Beware of who you are partnering
  2. Sacrifice is needed
  3. Family support
  4. God provides in His time, sometimes we have to wait, even till the last moment- that’s how we grow in faith
  5. We are weak and constantly doubt. It is his will or my own desire/fantasy
  6. It is not easy to have faith in suffering
  7. Be someone who persuades and share his vision


I've also have some doubts especially regarding Dorothy (his wife). But i guess it's no point writing here. Shall go look for someone who watched the movie and discuss.
