Living Our Faith

By Kurt Selles

June 30, 2021

When you hear the word “faith,” what do you think of? Maybe a better question is, “Who do you think of?” As we look back on our lives, we are probably able to recall particular people who exemplified faith for us. They’re the kind of people who inspire us to have a closer walk with God.

In July, Harvey Kiekover reflects on his experiences as a missionary teacher in Nigeria, as a church pastor in the United States, and later as a nursing home chaplain. The people he writes about are ordinary people whose faith has encouraged him in his faith walk. May these stories encourage you as well!

Harvey Kiekover grew up on a Michigan farm and studied to go into pastoral ministry. He served as a teacher in Nigeria and as a pastor and chaplain in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He and his wife became the parents of three sons, and he enjoys spending time with his six grandchildren.

As you read the Today devotions this month, may you be refreshed, refocused, and renewed in God’s Word!
