The key is hearing His voice and obeying, even in the midst of difficult situations-like recovering lost passports or the seemingly ridiculous act of sticking a green leaf in your ear. -Larry and Jean Johnson Only God is a collection of stories about God's extraordinary intervention and divine work through the lives of two ordinary people. Larry and Jean grew up in Iowa, married right out of high school, and each pursued their respective "dream" jobs: farming and nursing. When they separately heard "the call" to worldwide missions, they thought it was farfetched-until they couldn't ignore God's summons anymore.
