“I prayed and asked God where to go…”

During disciple-making movement trainings Roger oftentimes chooses a random person to ask questions about themselves and their work. Typically, this is someone he knows very little about, so he has no idea what or how successful they might be in their efforts to share Jesus Christ with others. Here’s just one of their stories (Rebecca is pictured in the middle):

“Two weeks ago, I prayed and asked God where to go. The Holy Spirit gave me direction so I walked for one hour to somewhere I didn’t know anyone. When I got to that place there was another visitor from outside (of the community) who joined me and invited me to go with her to her relative’s house. That relative told me about a neighbor where there was a child who was sick and asked me to go there.

“We sat for so long in that house and then I said, ‘Let’s stand and pray for this sick child,’ so we did. I also shared some things from my life and from the Word of God. I told that lady that I had to go but I would come back tomorrow. I went back the next day and the child had become healed. That was two weeks ago and now I have seen those people four times since that first meeting. Now we have three more people in the first house and two more in the second house. We do Discovery Bible Study together.”

Rebecca has recently started five house churches in a similar fashion. We have the privilege of hearing story after story, person after person willing to listen to God, willing to go, willing to share their hearts and lives and resources with others. It’s always exciting and inspiring to be with humble people with a passion for God and for people.

Your prayers and partnership help keep these amazing people encouraged and motivated!
