My name is Eric Hanson. I have set my feet upon five continents over the course of this year. I have seen the wonders of the world, those widely recognized, but many more that only a few on this earth have ever seen. And every time I look around, I wonder, “Is this really my life?”<\/p>\n
Yesterday, I was standing on top of some snowy peak I do not know the name of, overlooking mountain range after mountain range, struck by awe. I have seen miracles. I have seen the unexplainable. I have eaten food that should not have fed three or four people, yet strangely fed 11, with enough for seconds. I have had nowhere to sleep at night one minute, and the next, I’m holding the keys to a house.<\/p>\n
I have heard the shouts of praise of a woman<\/span><\/a> who had lain on a mat and could now walk. I have seen an old man<\/span><\/a>, whose heart had hardened from 60 years of rejection, melt because of the love of a few strangers, and the One who died for him.<\/p>\n I have had my own encounter with the Living God, and every single day, I have the extreme privilege to see the Lord in a new way.<\/p>\n Three World Race teams are leaving in 2008. Abundant life is literally at your fingertips.<\/span><\/em> Apply now<\/span><\/em><\/a> for the World Race, and start living how you were meant to live. You must be at least 21.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n The World Race is a discipleship program in which young people <\/span><\/font>(over 21) are challenged to live like Jesus for a year. They travel to 11 different countries, bring hope to the poor, and learn how to live in close community with their peers. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. <\/span><\/em>Click here to tell a friend about the World Race.<\/span><\/em><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This is written by a good buddy of mine, Eric Hanson.\u00a0 He’s just completed a year-long missions adventure called The World Race.\u00a0 I’ll let him describe it, he does so perfectly in the blog below: My name is Eric Hanson.

I have walked in to a village where there were no believers, and left with 25 new brothers and sisters. I have seen people who have not eaten in a week, erupt into dancing<\/span><\/a> and laughter. I have seen the joy in the eyes of a teenage boy whose one eye did not work only minutes before.<\/p>\n![](\"http:\/\/jeffgoins.myadventures.org\/blogphotos\/myadventures\/jeffgoins\/lifewelllived2.jpg\")
I have been a part of the story of a man<\/span><\/a> who had a terminally ill wife who lived just long enough to hear the Good News and then passed away. I have seen the obedience of a young man and his wife transform a community in the jungle. I have worshiped in secret where it is illegal, lifting up praises so that only my Father can hear.<\/p>\n
