International Me: The Touch of Jesus
http://bajemese.blogspot.com/2011/03/touch-of-jesus.html
Every tongue, every tribe, every nation, every race. Sunday, March 27, 2011. The Touch of Jesus. We've been studying through Matthew lately at church, and last week the theme of touching seemed to come up a number of times. First off, Jesus healed a leper through touching him:. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. (Matt 8:1-3 ESV). Immediately afterward, Matthew recounts the healing of a centurion's servant:. While the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness. In that place the...

International Me: October 2010
http://bajemese.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Every tongue, every tribe, every nation, every race. Sunday, October 10, 2010. The Bible for the Church. I heard a rousing sermon this morning, about how we sell (and cheaply) our Christian identity in times of trouble, and how it is the role and responsibility of the Christian to leave comfort for more difficult places. He talked about the comfort and safety of the womb, and the death that comes if we don't leave it for the harsher world outside. But his sermon clearly betrayed that his understanding of...

International Me: March 2009

Every tongue, every tribe, every nation, every race. Sunday, March 22, 2009. Nuff said. Finnish's son is on the right. Me and the Mullahs. Finnish Mullah and family. I ran into Finnish Mullah and his family today. We've been praying for them for many years, as he studies to go back to pastor in his native Sudan. He's studying at the seminary run by the church I visited this morning. He seemed very encouraged by our visit, and they all seem to be doing fine. Emma and Allen Kiwanuka. Voice only, no video).

International Me: Not by Works, but for them
http://bajemese.blogspot.com/2010/11/not-by-works-but-for-them.html
Every tongue, every tribe, every nation, every race. Tuesday, November 2, 2010. Not by Works, but for them. I've been thinking a lot about Grace and works righteousness lately, having just heard a number of fiery sermons telling us to Do Right in order to Be Right with God. Then last night I read the last chapter of Timothy, and was surprised by the amount of stuff Paul packed into just a few verses:. Through Jesus Christ our Savior,". We are not saved by our good works, and. This doctrine of our salvati...

International Me: April 2009
http://bajemese.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Every tongue, every tribe, every nation, every race. Saturday, April 18, 2009. Congo's Got Talent; How About Us? I heard a great sermon today, in a language I don't understand. The pastor was preaching at a dedication ceremony for some literature (dictionary and pastoral epistles) in the language of his own people group, and I wasn't his target audience, so the fact that I didn't follow doesn't bother me. Or will you bury them, and wait for your master to come home, and then give your excuses? There is n...

International Me: November 2010
http://bajemese.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Every tongue, every tribe, every nation, every race. Sunday, November 28, 2010. So we get into church, and when its time for the choir to stand up and sing, there are TEN people in Ikea shirts, singing praises to Jesus! Anyway, choirs with uniforms aren't new, and sports teams with corporate sponsorship aren't news either, but this seemed like an interesting juxtaposition. Since I didn't have my camera, for those that might not be sure what shirt I'm talking about, I found a pic online:. I think we gener...

International Me: What We Want
http://bajemese.blogspot.com/2010/11/what-we-want.html
Every tongue, every tribe, every nation, every race. Sunday, November 14, 2010. After this Jesus went away to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, which is the Sea of Tiberias. And a large crowd was following him, because they saw the signs that he was doing on the sick. So what are Jesus' signs pointing to? After attracting them all by healing the sick, he fed them all (5,000) with five loaves of bread and a couple fish. Did they get it? Is immediately followed by "Let's make him King! Jesus answered t...
