The Inspiring Life and Legacy of William Borden, a Man of Unwavering Faith and Profound Impact William Borden was extraordinary in almost every sense. Born into wealth and privilege, he could have chosen to live a life of luxury and ease. Instead, he surrendered it all for a life of service to Christ. "Borden of Yale" is the riveting account of a man who exemplified what it means to be fully committed to God. Raised in Moody Church in Chicago and educated at both Yale and Princeton, Borden first felt the missionary call during a round-the-world journey gifted to him by his parents at the age of sixteen. The following year, he received a distinct call to dedicate his life to serving the Muslims of China, a decision that shaped everything he did from that point forward. Though a scholar in his own right, Borden's theological insights were not merely intellectual pursuits; they were living beliefs that propelled him into action. From leading Bible studies in dorms and founding the Yale Hope Mission to serving as a director at the National Bible Institute and spearheading evangelistic efforts that impacted the entire city of Cairo, Borden was unwavering in his commitment to share the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. As promising as his life appeared, Borden passed away in Egypt while en route to serve the Muslims in China. Thousands mourned, contemplating what might have been. Yet countless others have been inspired to follow in his footsteps to the mission field. William Borden was a visionary, a trailblazer, and an inspiration for all who seek to follow Jesus Christ. This is not just a book; it's an invitation to reevaluate what truly matters and to live wholeheartedly for the Lord.

With over a decade in international education, Kelly has honed her skills in making learning memorable, effective, and engaging. From founding a private acting school for international students in Shanghai to freelance acting with educational apps, Kelly's journey has been marked by creativity, leadership and innovation. Her experiences have shown her the power of immersive teaching methods, transforming textbooks into captivating experiences. Returning to the USA, Kelly's curiosity led her to explore finance and investing even more than ever before, resulting in making big moves on her own with impressive returns on investments like Netflix and Dogecoin - this allowed her to invest in "Walter the Vault" an iconic character to help families to learn about money. Over the past 3 years she's worked building out this business, paid in sweat labor, ownership and encouragement.

It's similar to celebrity gossip, but business gossip that Kelly is invested in and excited about, chatting about. Don't read into it more than that. Do your own research.
