Wilson is the youth leader at International Punjabi Masihi Church in Vancouver, Canada. Everyone loves this radical preacher's passion for Christ and His Church. Wilson helped organize the South Asian Global Convention (SAGC 2004) under the leadership of Pastor Pritam Singh. He is as "hairy-as-a-yak," "spits-like-a-camel," and is a F.A.T. (Faithful, Available, and Teachable) Christian. Wilson, a Malayalee Christian holds a BA in Biblical Studies from Trinity Western University and his mission is to make Scripture relevant to today's generation. Famous quote: "Knock it off!"
Nothing is ever wasted if it is done in the name of Jesus.
Not the Bible Studies that no one came to...
Not the times that enemies got our blessings instead of wrath...
Not nights of agonizing and wrestling in prayer...
Not the people who we invested in and turned their backs on us...
Not hours of seeking in the Word of God....
Not the times we kept going when there was no strength left...
Not the times pain of being misunderstood and insulted by the ones we loved...
Not the pain and anguish felt when things went wrong and we were accused of failure...
Not the prayer meetings no one came to...
Not the worship practices that were skipped out on by the others...
None of it was wasted! NOTHING!
"Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord." (1 Cor 15:58)
