As president and CEO of World Vision I recently visited a remote part of Kenya. What I experienced taught me three valuable lessons about family, community and faith.
In times of suffering and crisis, we have two options—turn away from God and each other, or turn toward those who hurt and walk together in our pain. A young woman in Turkana, Kenya.

These are grim statistics. But what I experienced in Kenya tells a bigger story of what can happen when people of faith endure hardship.
