Edie and I are now home and trying hard to get through jet
lag. It seems it is much harder to do this once we are at home, than it is to
do in Asia at the beginning of our trips. We consider our latest trip to be a
wonderful success. Two groups were graduated with outstanding final sermons in
some cases and fully adequate ones for all. The last three years with these men
has made an amazing difference in their lives and is producing significant
changes and growth in their congregations.
Our time at the Asia conference was a pleasant end to our
trip allowing us to rest up some but also giving us a chance to make great contacts with some of
our Asian ReachGlobal staff. Next June we will be traveling with Daniel
Holmquist to India and Nepal, after our training in Thailand, to explore new
training opportunities for the coming years. Daniel helped me in Thailand this
time and did an outstanding job. He will be overseeing South Asia so I will be
working closely with him for training in that area.
My priorities now are to update all of our curriculum with what
we have learned in the past year and then to produce a good lay version for
roll out in June at the national conference. Please be in prayer for me on this
regard as it is a large project with much to accomplish between now and then. I
really believe this lay project will have significant impact in US churches as
well as some of our overseas contacts as well.
