Sowing the Seed: July 2010
http://sowintheseed.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 29, 2010. India, Day 10. So the first day of ministry was to hold an all-day pastors meeting with the young, emerging Christian leaders in Chennai. The place we rented out was a beautiful resort on the Indian Ocean about a half hour down the coastline south of Chennai. We had a full day of teaching, worship, games, food, and fellowship all planned out. The teaching into practice right off the bat. We really enjoyed spending quality time with the pastors and their wives, getting to know the...

Sowing the Seed: January 2011
http://sowintheseed.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 11, 2011. 2010 blew by us and here we are starting a new year. People have all sorts of new year's resolutions and personal commitments that they make at this time of year. It is a great time to reflect on the past year and re-prioritize our lives. There is an incredible amount of clarity that it seems only hindsight can provide, an advantage you don't have in the moment of decision. Did we wait for an answer? Were we willing to obey when we received it? How many times did you find yours...

Sowing the Seed: May 2010
http://sowintheseed.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 9, 2010. India, Day 6, 7. Day 6 Saturday, March 13. Today was a very special day. First on our agenda was to head down to the river and baptize 60 new believers. The Godavari River is the 2nd most holy river in India, and is revered greatly by the Hindu faithful. There are magnificent temples built along its shores where people come and offer sacrifice to their gods. We went home for showers and went to the mission hospital for a tour of the ministry there. As we arrived outside th. If a stra...

Sowing the Seed: November 2009
http://sowintheseed.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 22, 2009. The Hand of God. We've all heard the stories of God's incredible hand of provision. People regularly share testimonies about how the Lord came through for them in some miraculous way in their time of need. I have a story of providence that I would like to share with you, for the glory of God. I called Living Waters on Wednesday morning to order more, but to my dismay, they were closed! About 10:30 my phone rang and on the other end was a man I didnt know, who immediately began ...

Sunday, May 22, 2011. The Rapture Didnt Happen Today. Hey guys n gals,. After all, the enemy loves to discredit the church by exploiting these false prophets. Leave it to him to take full advantage of every opportunity to make us all look like a bunch of fruitcakes. How else does a man like Harold Camping gain such instant recognition? Someone is pulling strings. That is not the purpose of today's message to you, however. Instead I would like to look at it from another angle, if you will permit. Perhaps ...

Sowing the Seed: September 2010
http://sowintheseed.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 4, 2010. Today we had a small pastor's meeting in Sithalapakkam ( i hope i spelled that right), which is near the grounds of our big crusades in Chennai. It was held in pastor Rajendran's church, since he was the main pastor who was instrumental in bringing the other pastors together for the crusade. One of the great things we were able to experience here is to have communion with these men of God. It was really special. This was one of those meetings. When we arrived, I was prett...

Sowing the Seed: India 2011 Day 11
http://sowintheseed.blogspot.com/2011/04/india-2011-day-11.html
Tuesday, April 26, 2011. India 2011 Day 11. We have been so busy every day for the last 10 days straight. Today we have a bit of a lighter load. All we have for speaking is the crusade tonight, and Zach Lamberson is delivering the message, so I have a day off. We are using the day to get all of our shopping done. All of us have families and loved ones to buy things for, so we headed to the mall. The new mall here is actually pretty impressive. It is very modern and everything is new. At least a hundred m...

Sowing the Seed: January 2010
http://sowintheseed.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 31, 2010. This blog, written by a friend of mine, is a great example of what I am talking about in this weeks blog. Http:/ thelawmanchronicles.blogspot.com/2010/01/invest-and-invite-how-modern-church.html. So how do we get them in? With what means should we make the whole experience more attractive? We wouldnt want to come on too heavy, and imply that following Jesus requires any kind of real change. That might send them straight to the doors. This way, coming to church on a Sunday mornin...

Sowing the Seed: April 2010
http://sowintheseed.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 24, 2010. India, Day 4, 5. Well, our fourth day of ministry in Rajahmundry was pretty much the same as the day before. Kumar had rented the grounds and all the equipment for two days, so our pastor's conferences and crusades were held at the same place. The hindu man who was having fits the night before was quieted down by the police. In fact, the police even had a few officers present later that night at the crusade to protect us in case anything else might come up. It is a real honor to...
