William A. Cutts

William Cutts Hazi talk! That's what the Moni people of Irian Jaya, Indonesia, call the Chrsitian message. It is the gospel that Bill and Gracie Cutts spent a lifetime proclaiming as missionaries of The Christian and Missionary Alliance. Suffering from congenital deformities, Bill had every excuse inoti to become a missionary in the rugged interior of Irian Jaya. But instead he and Gracie carried on a ministry that was truly apostolic--accompainied by miracles and divine providence.

Carol Barnier

CAROL BARNIER is a humorist and speaker, frequent radio guest and author, Pastor's kid, Christian. . .and former atheist. These days she admits she takes her God, her faith and her theology very seriously, but herself. . .not so much. To every task she brings along her slightly irreverent humor, whether tackling the issues of being very ADHD, the discomfort at being asked to be the older woman in a Titus program (after all, Titus rhymes with phlebitis--proceed with caution), or how to love today's "woman at the well." But in her latest project--bringing tools and hope to the parents of prodigals, Carol rolls up her sleeves and shares ideas and stories from the heart and from her own journey. In every talk, every article, every interview and every book, it is her objective to not only inspire people, but to give them something they can take home and use immediately. She lives in Connecticut with her husband of 25 years and her three kids.
