Missions is not about sending missionaries. Missions is about sending truth--God's Truth, the Truth of the Gospel-through missionaries. Missions is not about you giving your life away. Ministry is not about you just going out helping people. Missions is about a proclamation of who God is. It is a proclamation of who man is. It is a proclamation of what God has done for men in Jesus Christ. It's about proclaiming what men must do to be saved.--Paul Washer
Instead of updating you in this blog entry about what I've been doing, I felt a burden on my heart to spread this message to my fellow missionary partners in Christ. Please remember that God called us out to the field, not so that our supporters back at home can see that we're doing a great job and should "feel" for us, but so that He can get the glory and that His Name is proclaimed, not yours. Proclaim His Name, not yours.
Acts 1:8
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.
