Experiencing God In The Hidden Place

In The Hidden Place, Vickie takes you on a rare journey behind the walls of a communist orphanage and the harsh realities of everyday life as an orphan. A journey that began with her “Yes” to God, taking her and her family to China, to serve the orphans living there. Vickie will share stories of the children she met, the brutal effects suffering and injustice had on them, and her determination to right the wrongs of injustice to orphans. Being sold out and obedient to everything God asked resulted in a ministry dripping in God’s favor and extravagant provision. Until one fateful night when a single event would change everything, and her life would never be the same. What do you do when: You know God could have changed or stopped something, but He didn’t? Nothing makes sense? You know you had faith, yet God didn’t answer your prayer? There is no happily-ever-after? In your season of deep grief and sorrow, you ask, “God, where are you and who is really in control of this battle? Those were the questions on Vickie’s heart when God answered her with His own question, “Will you come away with me to the Hidden Place?” In the Hidden Place, you will not only learn the answers to these questions, but you will experience God and encounter His Presence in ways you never have before as He asks you the same question: “Will you come away with me to the Hidden Place?”
