I’m back. South Africa has been a wonderful experience. The students have grown in their teaching and preaching abilities. This will be my last trip to South Africa for now. We are looking to open up new training sites in new countries so stay tuned.
Proverbs 3:9-10 – how does living under the New Covenant change the application for these verses for today?

David Garland’s comments on Luke 24:25, the road to Emmaus. The Psalms are God’s guidebook to change our feelings and emotions to align with the godly feelings and emotions of Jesus. Our decisions are emotional decisions, and so our emotional life becomes crucial to the life of a disciple.
2 Corinthians 4 – the treasure of the gospel is kept in fragile jars of human clay. This clay pot broke on my way home from Africa, but we glued it together. The light shining through reminds us that the treasure inside, the Gospel, shines through the cracks in the pot.
Before training, we had a few hours to drive through a game park. This pic needs a caption.

Thank you for reading. It truly is a great work God has allowed us to be a part of.

The training in Kimberly was in the book of Psalms. It is an inspired songbook/prayer book that enables us to change our emotions to fit God‘s desires. This is an excellent book to help us learn to pray biblically.
Great information about the state of world missions today.
