Today I went for an early morning walk for about an hour and ended up in a temple area. I have read about it and seen movies or documentaries, but being here was completely different. I had no idea whole communities made gigantic statures about being dominated by a serpent.
I have a dream of helping Brazilians get connected to other peoples around the world, to bring the powerful and joyful gospel message to others, and then to share the stories with their home churches. I see this enhancing local evangelism and church planting at home because God is abundant far beyond our imagination.
Rather than moving from a scarcity mentality which leads to managing limited resources, I see us moving in abundance as God opens the windows of heaven to help His people show others how to move away from being dominated by the serpant toward freedom and joy.
I believe that more church-planting around the world will result in more church-planting at home. People are longing for a reason to live sacrificially and joyfully.
