Story Threads #3








Story Thread #3: We believe in profound connections.

People with God. People with each other. Leaders with resources. BrookLink is all about facilitating and maximizing profound connections. We believe that God brings people into our lives for His purposes, creating a divine, inter-ethnic patchwork of connections. This network is deep, wide, active and alive, and all of us beneļ¬t. Encouragement is inevitable. The result is an amazing linkage of hearts that delivers life and power, making a holistic difference in individual lives and their communities.

G.K. Chesterton once wrote, “There are no words to express the abyss between isolation and having one ally. It may be conceded to the mathematician that four is twice two. But two is not twice one; two is two thousand times one.” Sounds like Chesterton had been reading Solomon who advised us, “Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work (Eccl. 4:9). BrookLink is committed to connecting people across continents and cultures by going and offering ourselves as “allies for the under-resourced.”
