SHORT IN HEIGHT, TALL IN COURAGE

 

     Christianity and Judaism are under attack around the world, and people are ignoring and abandoning their faith all across the United States. People in the inner sanctums are deeply concerned, while the muckrakers are having a field day celebrating the impending calamity. Few people realize nor are they concerned that civilization's moral foundation is at risk. Thankfully, God is in charge, not man. A group of godly men and women had an idea that some might consider demented, bringing the two ancient faiths of Judaism and Christianity together to give birth to an organization called the World Christian Peace Network, WCPN. Its board of directors is composed of devout and powerful men and women of many nationalities and races. Their commission was to create a light and covert military strike unit to hit targets hard and fast. The desired result is for the world to understand that the days of attacking and persecuting Christians and Jews without retribution, is over. The BOD spent many days in prayer to find the two men needed and qualified to lead the first of many teams that would operate in full view of the public eye.

     After many days and nights of soul searching and praying, a list of thousands was pared down to the two soldiers proven to have exhibited the highest ideals of leadership, experience, and, above all, faith in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. These two men would be responsible for choosing men that met these same standards. Also, the two leaders would choose the country and the exact area to operate from. It may seem odd at first glance, but the country chosen was South Sudan, and the first seventeen men chosen were all from the Dinka Tribe of that same country. These South Sudanese men were asked to dedicate their lives to God, with martyrdom an almost sure thing. Money was never a consideration, for glory and fame was only for God.

     Soon, a young man would enter the picture. He would instantly grab the hearts of all the team members, and they would grab his. This short man, like Paul in the Bible, became the final ingredient for the formation of this consummate group.  These men would become known as "The Team" to the world. The Team's fighting exploits would become legendary and bring great glory to our Lord. This band of "who-are-theys", the kind our God loves to give his most important jobs to, would become one of the forces God would empower to show the world, just as He had shown the Egyptians in Exodus, his divine power and glory that are only His. The coming battles would be many and some would be deadly, but The Team would never falter nor bow out. Even during combat, a zeal to carry out Christ's commission was never far from the minds of team members. At their lowest points, with victory in question, The Team looked to God, for they relied faithfully on Him for their strength, courage, and wisdom. Now, the story of The Team and the little man that had such a great influence on them as told by James "JJ" Jefferson, their leader.
