I enjoyed (in a sympathetic kind of way!) this story from Niger about a therapy session – How Not To Build Rapport!

What can you say when it looks like your fear is about to become a reality?  In this case, it’s a fire (Republic of the Congo)!

And now, an update from Mexico about a miracle baby and how the Gospel is infiltrating people’s lives, in spite of hardship and persecution.

And what is Christmas like in Uruguay?  Well, here’s one experience…

But enough about Christmas… let’s end with a prayer for the new year, thanks to bloggers in Thailand.

Making Disciples

25 September 2010

For the most part, missionaries want to obey Jesus’ command to make disciples (all right, if they don’t, are they missionaries?).  But how is that done?  What does it mean?  And how can we get outside our own desires and plans and see what Jesus would have us do?
