Liberia March 14-23, 2019. My next trip
March 14 will find me on an airplane for the 40+ hour trip back to Liberia (see Liberia 1.0) I will be teaching the Gospel of Mark to 10-15 students and guiding them in preparing a sermon from a passage in the same book.
Prayer Requests
Here are nine requests. Please pray…
1. That the men can come to the training. Some travel several days on a motorcycle on very poor roads to come. 1 Thessalonians 2:17-20
2. For finances. Most of the men have full time jobs and take from 7-10 days off work to come to the training. Philippians 4:19
3. None of the men in my December class had read the entire Bible. Pray that they would set their minds to do this. 2 Timothy 2:15; Acts 20:27
4. That they would truly love the Lord. Matthew 22:37-40
5. That they would have eyes to see the truths in the Bible. Psalm 119:18
6. That they would learn a method for preparing sermons. That they would develop a good pattern for preparation. 1 Timothy 4:11-16; Ezra 7:10
7. Pray for their marriages. 1 Timothy 3; Ephesians 5:25-33; 1 Peter 3:7
8. There are many unreached tribal peoples in Liberia. Pray that the Liberian church would send missionaries to these people. Matthew 24:14
9. The health and wealth heresy is rampant in Africa, this includes Liberia. Pray that they would understand the Bible’s teaching on money, suffering, and contentment, 2 Corinthians 4-6; 6:10
