Without financial support provided by God through His church, missionaries will remain here & the unreached will remain just that: unreached.
Can I say something to young ladies here? I’m trying to pick my words carefully here. Your husband, whoever he is, single ladies, will have an unbelievable amount of influence over your sons and daughters in regards to spiritual things. If you want your children to love Jesus deeply, hold out for a man that is Godly. And let me tell you this: I am well aware that Godly men are rare. Lots of neat Christian boys, not a lot of Godly men. And we’re working our tails off for you to try to develop some into that. But don’t settle, because it’s better that you be lonely now than you be married and lonely later. Are you tracking with me? It is better that you be lonely now than for you to get married to a man that will teach your kids everything but the way of Jesus.

preparation begins.
I had a dear friend send support for books. I know it may seem random, especially considering that I still need a plane ticket and insurance. However, these books will play a huge part in my heart during my journey. Also, these are books I am purchasing now, because I cannot purchase them in Asia.
Books that I currently have for my trip:
Let the Nations be Glad (2nd edition): John Piper
The Beginner’s Guide to Spiritual Warfare: Neil Anderson and Timothy Warner
Foreign to Familiar: Sarah Lanier
One in a MIllion: Priscilla Shirer
Crazy Love: Francis Chan
Forgotten God: Francis Chan
Erasing Hell: Francis Chan
I guess the next question is…where do I start?! :]
…when you have two really good, but very different options and are completely clueless as to which one is the correct choice.
Go with the one that requires more faith.
‘Jesse, I’ve been thinking about spiritual warfare and how that looks in Asia. It makes me wonder…what is spiritual warfare in America? What does it look like?’
‘It looks like a nice house and a nice car…..’
The truth about our culture. Thank you for that, Jesse.
Pray for these friends: Clay and Tyler.
They are spending summer in unreached areas for the sake of the Kingdom.
Pray for:
-new brothers and sisters
-renewal
-direction
-clarity
-boldness
-a discipleship that continues past the summer
