Standing room only

Two weeks ago myself and 4 Nav students recruited 1st year medical
students to come explore the book of John with us. The night came, I
got sick, the nav guys filled the gap ready to launch the
investigative Bible discusion and... Not a single student pitched.
Fast forward to tonight. All but one of the Nav student leaders had to
miss leaving Huli and I alone to see what this week would bring.
We prayed. We walked in. We nocked on a few doors to remind people
that tonight was the night and.... They came.
We quickly outgrew the venue, had to move outside, then ran out of
chairs. Well over 50 first years explored the first chapter of the
book of John with us! Our invite was for only those not in church,
reading the Bible or religious. We got what we asked for!

This weekend I met with the Suthern African Nav country leaders. One
of the things we prayed and trusted God for was blessing & oportunity
to advance the Gospel beyond what we could handle. It came.
