Had a great day yesterday at church. The morning service went really well. I preached from John 1:35-49 on the subject, “Each One Reach One.” We looked at the example of Andrew and Philip who both sought out others to bring to Christ. Over the past year we have seen God do wonderful things in our church. At this crucial time, we need to make a deliberate effort in reaching others. The people responded quite positively to the challenge. I am praying we will not only be challenged; we will be changed.
In the evenings I am teaching a Crown Financial course. Most of you have heard about them as they are based in the US and frequently featured on local Christian radio. Thus far, it has been amazing. The attendance from our church has been encouraging. We have a few people coming who do not attend our church and I am pleased to have this opportunity to get to know them. Although the topic is finances, it deals with a wide range of issues, focusing on knowing God. I am praying this will have a profound impact on each of us as we reevaluate our priorities and this matter of stewardship.

I believe the Crown Financial course will be a great help to your ministry. These tough times economical will make peoples hearts I believe more receptive to the gospel and that course will be an excellent inroad to them for the gospel.
We pray for you and your family often.
