The View From Peru

In this repost, I trim down episode 14 from Season 1 to the main interview. Charlie Sell shares how the Lord led him away from his job as an FBI agent to become a missionary in Lima, Peru. Trust me, this is one episode you don't want to miss! My wife and I can only do what we do down here in Lima, Peru because of amazing and generous people have partnered with us and support us monthly. Without them, I don't see how we could be the missionaries God has called us to be. If you would like to also partner with us, information on how to do so is found below. If the Lord has placed it on your heart to support Paola and me with either a single or monthly monetary gift, in the show notes are the instructions, as well as links to our Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube channels. - Donate online, as follows: • Go to https://www.nics.org/donate/ Choose “Support a NICS Missionary.” • A drop-box will pop up that says “Staff Name or Project Number.” Type in Missionary's Name, project #004017. • Choose the amount to give, and add any comments.

So, this podcast was recorded in September or October, 2021, which was a long time ago. It was also meant to be released in October, but a lot of things got in the way. Soon after the recording of this episode, Paola and I found out that we were going to have a baby! Our apartment was too small for Baby Liam, so we had to move to a new place. Also, at International Christian School of Lima, we began to have hybrid classes in October. And before you know it, we were approaching the midway point of 2022. Thank you Joe so much for being willing to come on the podcast!

In this week's episode, Jess, a borderline hippy arts teacher, and Edwin, a snazzy business man, discuss how they both fell in love with God, Peru, and each other. We also discuss how you know when it is time to leave the ministry. A lot of people talk about how the Lord gives them the courage to join the mission field, but, how do we find the courage to leave? Next week, there is another very special episode that will also feature a give-away, so make sure to like and subscribe so as to not miss episode 5!

In this episode, Pastor Jared Bryant of Bethel Church shares his testimony and his passion for global missions. We discuss the definition of “missions,” and also how pastors and missionaries can work together to spread the Word of God to the many unreached people groups that still exist today. We also talk about how Bethel Church has launched a new campus for Chinese speakers and is in the process of launching one for Spanish speakers. He shares what starting projects like these look like, and how God brought it all together. Jared's passion for missions, cultures, and the Gospel is infectious, and I'm sure you'll feel encouraged to do your part in spreading the Good News after listening to what he has to say. Also, I also give a quick update to how Paola and I are doing, and what we have been up to during the last few weeks. So, this podcast might be moving to Wednesdays in the future. I'm not sure yet when or if that'll happen quite yet. Hopefully soon, I'll be doing some sort of “bonus” episodes. I'm not exactly sure what that'll be like, but I hope you like it!... whatever it ends up being… and whenever it comes out… Anywho, see you next week! Please keep us, Bryants, and Peru in general in your prayers this week. P.S. Let me know if the audio quality on this episode is different or worse than in previous ones. I forgot to put up the blankets against the walls like I normally do. I hope it wasn't a huge mistake not to! It sounded good on my end, but let me know what you think.

In this episode, I interview 3 of the 8 graduates of International Christian School of Lima. They share what going to such a culturally diverse school was like, how they think and feel about graduating during a pandemic, what is next for them, and what God has taught them over this stage of their lives.

In this Episode, I briefly reflect on the crazy week the U.S.A. has had, from sending men back into outer space to the George Floyd case and protests. From there, I give a Peru Versus the Corona Virus Crisis update, in which we compare COVID19's effect on Peru with its effect on the States. The meat of the episode is the fun interview I had with two of my co-workers Lauren and Brooke. They started teaching at ICS Lima this year, and they share how God got them there, what it's like to be roommates with someone you've never met before, what it is like to be a single missionary, and why there aren't more single guys on the mission field. It's a great conversation, and I think you'll really enjoy it! Article Quoted from Rachel Yanac about how COVID19 has hurt Peru: https://lifeintheandes.home.blog/2020/05/28/this-is-the-pandemic-reality-in-peru/?fbclid=IwAR37FxP1x8esCCFjJ3Fs0nGgoacISnaMCaqbu0OWq06rPR71XEhJYq9rCbY Our Social Media Contact Info: IG: https://www.instagram.com/cnpfreytheviewfromperu/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/cmfrey427/ Email: cmfrey427@gmail.com Anchor: https://anchor.fm/theviewfromperu YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWKTmvlvau0RMEuoTmaadlg If the Lord has placed it on your heart to support Paola and me with either a single or monthly monetary gift, in the show notes are the instructions, as well as links to our Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube channels. - Donate online, as follows: • Go to https://www.nics.org/donate/ Choose Donate Now. • For Designation, choose “Staff Support.” • A box will pop up that says “Staff Name or Project Number.” Type in Missionary's Name, project #004017. • Type in the amount to give, along with any comments. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/theviewfromperu/message

In this episode, we spend time reflecting on the life and work of the great apologist, Ravi Zacharias. I share how God used his books in my life, and about five other of my friends share how he helped them with their spiritual journey and understanding the reality of God. After, I interview Mariela Benites about the Ravi Zacharias International Ministries - Latin America. She tells me about how she joined the team, what they do in Peru and across Latin America, and also we talk about how studying apologetics has helped her with her own walk with God. We also discuss in depth what exactly it actually means for Peru to be a Catholic nation. Turns out, not even a lot of the “Catholic” universities are all that religious. With that in mind, we discuss what foreign missions could do to help the local, Gospel-preaching Church here in Peru. Near the end, I seize the opportunity and ask an actual apologist (1) How can we know that God is real? And (2) If God is good, why did He allow the Corona Virus? As you might expect, she gives great answers to both of the questions. I hope that you enjoy this episode, and that it was of some spiritual benefit to you; I also pray that God has been glorified through the creating and publishing of this episode.

In this episode, I talk about HOW and WHY I almost got arrested last week. Also, I get very excited about ice-cream and sushi delivery- and if you're in Lima, you should too! More importantly, I get to ask my pastor and his wife about what it was like to plant a church, how ministry has evolved during this time of COVID-19, and a lot more. I think it's a very interesting conversation, and hearing their love for God and their church community will be a spiritual encouragement to you. I hope that you've enjoyed this episode, and I hope that it glorifies God.

In this episode, I “sit down” with Matt, and he shares about growing up in a Mission's minded household as a kid, and how that led him to Peru. In this week's episode, we discuss topics like dating on the missions field, adoption, tent-making ministry, and immigration law. This interview was such a great time, and I hope you enjoy it, because I know I for sure did!
