Not an option

The great commission is not an option to be considered, it is a command to be obeyed.
-Hudson Taylor

As we come to the end of this week, I am challenged by this statement. Mark Anderson has quoted this a couple times through this week and I am gripped with the reality of this commandment.

It is our responsibility as Christians to carry out the will of God. The expression of the great commission looks differently for each individual but the mission is the same.

Outreach:
I'm so excited for outreach in India and China. My team is so expectant and hopeful of the things that will be happening on outreach. We want to see people saved, healed, and set free from bondage.

At this point not all the money has come in for many people. Collectively we need about $100,000 for students. We took up an offering and we had people donate about $25,000. It's so encouraging to see students in their lack being generous with what they have.

My team has now 11 days until we leave. Please keep us on your prayers.
