Who are we ?
WE ARE A GROUP of Volunteer Bible believing Christians that have a burden from the Lord to help support those that are in need on a monthly basis.

Recipients of our support include children in Africa, children and Jewish adults in Russia and children in Israel. We help missionaries in New Guinea, Europe, Asia, Israel, and the USA.  We also help some who are involved in local outreach ministries and also those with individual needs.

All our support is given as directly to the need as possible so what is given is not eaten up by organizations taking a big slice for their business. We at the Burning Bush Christian Crusades use less than 1% and all funds that are donated to us and are made aware of needs through word of mouth and the  leading of the Holy Spirit.

We DO NOT solicit for funds even though we are a charitable organization and a Ltd. Co. We do not refuse any donations and you will receive an income tax receipt.

Hebrews 11:6  But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Why do we give on a monthly basis ?
All the support we give is laid on our hearts by the Lord, we pray and discuss the burden before we commit to the monthly support.

A one time gift will help for that one time, but what about tomorrow? Our commitments average $100 a month. The longest we have supported a specific need is seven years. The Lord is faithful to us and so we should be faithful to others. There have been times when there wasn't enough funds available to meet our commitments, but miraculously, before cheque time, the funds are there.

Psalms 50:10 For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.

Matthew 7:7  Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

Why call it the Burning Bush ?
God spoke to Moses through the Burning Bush, so he speaks to us and directs us as to who needs support and what scripture to put with what Food for Thought.
John 10:27  My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
Our prayer has always been to be used as a stepping stone for people to walk closer to our Lord Christ Jesus.

What is the Food for Thought ?
They are small sayings or clichés that I felt led to compile starting in the 1970’s. In 2001 I felt I should put these to scripture and send them out on the internet as a short devotional. After one year I only had about 20 addresses that received the Food for Thought, so I thought, "Maybe the Lord didn't direct me in this. Maybe it was just me", and I was going to quit sending them. Well that evening I received over 100 subscription requests and this continued for a few weeks.  Food for Thought is now received almost around the world.

SAMPLE
Food for Thought
===========================================================
Outside of committees, there is nothing
that holds us back as much as procrastination.

Matthew 23:23  "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted
the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith:
these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. "

NIV:  “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you
hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices--mint, dill and cummin.
But you have neglected the more important matters of the law--
justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practised the
latter, without neglecting the former.

The Food for Thought is sent out Monday through Friday, with a Sunday Special sent out for Sundays. These Specials are stories and testimonies that have been around for years. The Food for Thought has been going out 5 days a week, since 2001 and if you check the archives you will see that there has been very very few duplicates.

Why Questions & Answers ?
People write in and ask various questions, we try to answer each question using the answer out of the  bible. All names and circumstances are removed and the ones that are posted are the questions most commonly ask.

These are testimonies of some of the things that God used to increase and cement our faith in Jesus for my family and I. We trust that they will be an encouragement and blessing to you.
