Hello Everyone! It’s great to back stateside and it’s good to be back at work in the office. Since leaving in January this World
Race thing has exploded! The Squad I was leading was the largest squad we’ve ever had, but we’re about to have a training camp for 90 people leaving on the August 2009 Race.
I love the vision of raising up a generation to transform the world and see the Kingdom of God fully realized in places like Cambodia, Guatemala, and Kenya. The World Race is a journey like no other! For those of you who have been following my journey for the past 3 1/2 years, know that the same adventure and ministry experiences await you on The World Race if you’ll only apply!
If you’re ready to be transformed through living out the Gospel every day in places all around the world, then it’s time you prayed and considered The World Race. People ask me all the time
if it was ” a good experience.” Well… yeah! I’ve seen and experienced things few people ever have. When I hear about AIDS on the news or about political unrest in Africa, I have faces and names of people I’ve met that tell the same stories. People think of “The Amazing Race” when I talk about The World Race, but I’ll be the first to tell you that the reality of people and places around the world are better seen on this mission trip than on some TV show. The World Race is waking up our generation to the reality of life for people all over the world. It’s adventurous and crazy!
The World Race gives you the opportunity to experience true Christian community. You aren’t traveling alone! As you seek to grow, the best mirrors are your teammates. Not only do you abandon your bed, Chik-Fil-A, job security, and the normal American life on this trip, you realize you are meant to abandon your rights, your expectations, and your selfish desires. When all of that is stripped away and you find yourself on a cold mountain top in China, you put all your trust and faith in God. He’s the one that is changing you to be more like Him and He’s the one revealing His glory around the world.
He’s inviting you to be a part of this…. Won’t you apply???
