And The Word Came With Power

I just read a book called "And The Word Came With Power"... it chronicles the story of missionary Joanne Shetler who went to the Phillipines to translate the Bible into the native language. I like this book. The gospel message is clear and you can feel the love Joanne had for the people she ministered to there.

There were a lot of good quotes in it, but this one jumped right out and grabbed me:

"You can't teach people something if they steadfastly refuse to ask questions. That's just a courteous way of rejecting God."

Thoughts?
