SONSHIP STORIES:

ANDY MBURU

NAIROBI, KENYA

“When I got married in 2009 to my first wife, I had no idea that we only had three months of a marriage in front of us before she would have the accident and pass away.”

“Simply because we don’t understand God's reasons for allowing suffering to come our way doesn't mean that God doesn't have reasons. It just means that we don't know them. Welcome to being human. Welcome to not being all-knowing. We're not privileged to all the info when we can't handle all the info. That's been something that has encouraged me over the years.”

“At the Canyon Pathways retreats I’ve attended, it's interesting how it's never planned for, but we always get to a place of such release for one or two guys. And we pause and say, ‘Let's just sit with this one brother and just pray’.”

“And it’s always a surprise how far God took you at that point. Those are my favorite moments, where we go, ‘Nobody would have planned this’. Such a huge blessing to just have sons, other sons around you just to stand with you.”
