We´re Back

Lori and I had a really rich time at IT´s International Leadership Forum in the Netherlands. It was a very beautiful experience to here IT ministry leaders from all around the world share how God was working. We heard stories from Iraq, China, Vietnam, Russia, Kenya,Ukraine, Bosnia, andBolivia to name a few. One of the coolest things to me is the fact that IT is a truly international organization. It does not just value Christian leaders that come from the western world and going to the eastern world. It does not even see itself as an organization that send people from rich countries to poor ones.

IT is truly living out it´s desire to be an organization "From all nations, to all nations". I like to think of it as "WikiMissions" or the "Bit Torrent Church". Paul described it like this to the Corinthians, "So here's what I want you to do. When you gather for worship, each one of you be prepared with something that will be useful for all: Sing a hymn, teach a lesson, tell a story, lead a prayer, provide an insight."

Also, just wanted to let you know that I have updated photos on both the Friends and Family Albums. Feel free to check them out! Shalom, Matt
