Radical Abundance

About the guest: Growing up between two refugee camps, Nyajuok and her family lived at the limited generosity of the United Nations (U.N). Shortly after her family moved to the United States of America, Nyajuok found herself in another war when her family forced her into an arranged marriage at 14 years old. Hoping for a better future, she broke cultural norms and practices to pave a better future for herself and future generations despite what her family or her community thought. With three children, a failing marriage, health problems, and a doomed career, Nyajuok became hopeless and contemplated ending her life. Luckily, her Christian upbringing saved her when she was on the verge of suicide. Nyajuok realized that her lifelong struggles and unrelenting will to succeed could be a survival guide for someone in their darkest moments. As difficult as it was to relive these moments making this book come to life, she knew her experiences were not only for her but for those who might be walking a similar path. After putting her misfortunes down on paper, Nyajuok learned her ultimate life purpose. She became a champion of resilience.In this captivating memoir, Nyajuok illustrates her life story unapologetically despite coming from a patriarchal society in an East African country. Her life is a true testimony that no matter where we come from or what we have faced, the American Dream is alive and available to anyone willing to work for it.

 Life is a team sport – and as Christians, we are on the same team. When we compare ourselves to others, we not only find ourselves trapped in dissatisfaction, we are also limited in our capacity to enjoy an abundant life.

Have you ever felt alone and out of place? As followers of Jesus Christ, we are all foreigners on earth. 

Today we continue to talk about love but in a different context. In the first half of the show we look at the immigrant journey and how we can love our immigrant neighbor, then we transition to the realization that we are all immigrants, or foreigners, on earth. 

You’ll want to listen to the end because that’s where the good stuff is. 

Guest Bio:

Born and raised within the minority Christian community in India, Mabel Ninan moved to America in 2008. As she struggled to fit in and longed for rootedness and belonging, God opened her eyes to the fact that she was a spiritual immigrant too, a foreigner on earth who does not belong in this world. Her mission is to encourage believers to embrace their immigrant journey on earth and live out their calling with boldness and passion.
 
 Mabel's writings explore the intersection between faith, culture, and identity. Her articles have been published in CBN.com, The Upper Room, (in)courage.me, and Leading Hearts magazine. Her essay, "#LockdownLessons: How the Pandemic Reshaped My Understanding of Church", published in LeadingHearts.com as well as Courageous Magazine (India), won the Selah Award (Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference) in the essay category in 2021.

Mabel's first book, "Far from Home: Discovering Your Identity as Foreigners on Earth" will be released in July 2022 by Iron Stream Media. She is a contributor to Guideposts’, "All God’s Creatures 2022: Daily Devotions for Animal Lovers".

Host of the YouTube channel, "Immigrant Faith Stories," Mabel is currently pursuing M.A. in Theological Studies from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. A lover of books, Zumba, and tea, Mabel lives in Northern California with her husband, her ten-year-old son, and a Maltese.

Love Big provides a web-based platform to connect humanitarian organizations with those in need.  Along with our indigenous partners, Love Big is currently doing the groundwork to gather and provide data on humanitarian needs relating to water, food, medicine, and other projects.  

Local and international organizations who know the geography and local population where these needs exist will adopt these projects. We will provide our partner organizations with local contacts and the coordinates for these vetted projects, and they will go to work together. 
 
We are a faith-based, Christian organization and believe in the trinitarian God of the Bible. We believe we were created to reflect His love, mercy, and grace. The Bible and historic writers accurately account that Jesus associated with, served, healed, and taught the oppressed, the sick, the hungry, and the afflicted.  Jesus exemplified and articulated the priority of loving both God and our neighbors. These were the “greatest” commandments (Jesus).  Love Big attempts to live out these commandments by doing our humanly best version of what He did and asked.
 
In the end, lives will change, communities will be transformed, and a missional church will emerge. 
 
We are in the final stages of the site build and have partners ready to test the site with projects upon completion.
