In response to this blog, I want to quickly share how God called me to be a missionary to China:

 
After spending two weeks in China the summer after I graduated from highschool back in 2002, I honestly did not feel 'called' to go back and make China my lifelong home.

I returned to Oklahoma to begin classes at a community college near to my home. I had a full scholarship for my first two years of college, so it seemed the sensible plan was to go through university and then see what God had in store.

After my first day of class, while driving home, in my 'mind's eye' I saw a vision of millions of people in China without Jesus and without a witness. In an instant, my mind was made up. I had no other choice but to go back to China and devote my life to sharing Jesus with the people there.

 
This all happened in late August of 2002. By January of 2003 I was living in China, and I have spent the vast majority of the past 5 years serving God in the nation that I have adopted as my own.
