I've heard it said among believers: "God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life." I suppose there is some truth in that. But at the close of this Perspectives journey I think you can see it would be much more appropriate to say it this way: "God loves His Son and has a wonderful plan for Him, to bring all the nations to His feet as Lord of all, and He loves you and me enough to give us a place in it." Let's investigate that promise more closely.

Never in the history of mankind has there been a bigger, more ready army to infiltrate the 10/40 window than now. Southern Africa is at this moment more equipped than any other geographical group of people in the world to achieve this task. With a church planted in nearly every people group in Southern Africa we can be considered as "evangelized". What do we do now? Where to from here? I believe the call is clear, the call is North! Who will go? A mighty army covered by the blood of Jesus, positioning themselves at God's disposal and heading North as bearers of His glorious message.

My convictions on this matter have been growing for a while now. Obviously, I did not keep this to myself. Many have contributed to this vision. Listeni  more >

Who bears the weight of the responsibility for the stagnation in growth of long term cross cultural workers being sent to the least reached? Is it the institutions around us that lead to high debt levels and provide students a clear path toward the American Dream? I don't think this is the main problem. Oh, OK. Then it's got to be sin issues or materialism and the lack of willingness to sacrifice? Nope, that's not it either.

I'd like to propose that the answer is. us. That's right, you and me.   more >
