“Behind the Smiles shines the spotlight on mission today … Jane Fucella writes in a simple, engaging style that is both authentic and reflective. Through the stories of fun and tragedy, breakthroughs and setbacks, glorious church and genuine failure, Jane shows us what following Jesus in cross-cultural mission is all about.” - Paul Bendor-Samuel, Former International Director of Interserve
Endorsements
"Living and working for the Lord Jesus in a cross-cultural setting is a rich faith-growing experience, but one where we are constantly ambushed by the unexpected or misunderstood. Jane Fucella’s story of her family’s years in Thailand shows how God delights to transform our mistakes and shortcomings, and makes the gospel shine through. This book shows how Christian faith lived out in love in a distant culture brings new life, hope and grace where it is so badly needed. Read; enjoy; pray for Thailand!"
Rose Dowsett
Speaker and Author
Former International Chairman of Interserve
"Jane Fucella has written a moving, honest, perceptive and humorous account of over twenty years serving the church in Thailand with her husband and two daughters. In their range of roles – nursing, preaching, land development, child protection, teaching, community building, church leadership training, mentoring – Jane narrates tales of heart-breaking sadness and injustice, ‘man’s inhumanity to man’; but also experiences of inspiration and healing, witnessing to the hand and grace of God at work. As the title hints, sometimes appearances belie the reality, and Jane explores some of the difficulties behind cross-cultural and integral mission, and what it means to ‘trust and obey’ completely as a follower of Jesus. What comes through is not only Jane’s desire to ‘bring good news to the poor, and to bind up the broken-hearted, and set people free’, but her unswerving love for God, her deep compassion for people, and her delight in responding to the call of God."
Rev. David Lunan
Former Moderator, Church of Scotland
"This is a missionary story the like of which we have never seen before! Beautifully written, delightfully illustrated, it is packed with fascinating detail from lives motivated by the compassion of Jesus in the struggle to live in different cultures and to serve other people. It is funny – at times hilarious – but very honest in relating a significant and highly instructive experience of cross-cultural mission. Jane’s wonderful account will assist a new generation preparing to ‘live on terms set by others’, but it should [also] be read by people in Western churches trying to adjust to the presence of Asian immigrants within their communities and congregations."
Dr David Smith
Honorary Lecturer in Aberdeen University
