I just received my copy of the latest Evangelical Missions Quarterly journal. It's my favorite journal because it keeps me up-to-date with what's going on in the field of missions, stretches my thinking, and convicts me. Here are a few convicting quotes and questions from an article I just read about the culture of the cross:
"Is Jesus the center of my thoughts and conversations?"
"What percentage of my personal life and my ministry is a work of the Spirit?"
"Our action-oriented culture conditions us to be disinclined to spend significant time surrendering our needs and concerns to God in prayer."
"Do I follow him [Christ] to the boundary of suffering and then hold back?"
God has really been working on me lately through a Bible study I've been doing and also through extra reading such as this.
About Me
Welcome
I'm a missionary to Colombia. I write about things that interest me, especially topics that have to do with the gospel, biblical studies, Colombian culture, and ministry in general. I'm fascinated by the way in which we view another culture... truly some things get "lost in translation."
