“I’m Catholic, but I don’t believe in God.”
“Just as you say Jesus walks with you each day, Aristotle and Plato do the same for me.”
“I’ve never talked about spiritual things with anyone – not even my spouse.”
These are their words, their voices. These are our friends, the people to whom God has called us as The Upstream Collective.
And these are the people who tell the real story of Europe. Sure, we could find facts and figures about European countries and worldviews, but isn’t it even better to get to know the people?
That’s what we hope this “stories” section does. We want to introduce you to some of the individuals with whom God has crossed our paths. We want to share how God has used them to help us know Him better – even when they may not know Him themselves.
Of course, we’re not the only ones with stories. You have them too, whether you’ve met a European immigrant in your own hometown or ventured across the pond on vacation. So write in and tell us your stories about how God has given you a soft spot for Europe through its people. In the meantime, feel free to read just a few of ours:
