What are you doing of value with your life?

November 3rd, 2008 by Pastor | No Comments | Filed in Consecration, Evangelism, Missions

The following is a video of Tim Tebow, the quarterback for the University of Florida Gators football team. I did not know that his parents were missionaries in the Philippines. This shows what is really important to him. This video is about 4 1/2 minutes long, but it is worth the watch. At the end, you may ask yourself, what am I doing of eternal value?

Hudson Taylor on Missions

September 30th, 2008 by Pastor | No Comments | Filed in Missions

Hudson Taylor was a Baptist missionary to China in the 19th Century. He founded the China Inland Mission. His life is a testimony to perseverance, faithfulness and devotion to God.

Below are a few quotes from Brother Taylor concerning the work of Missions.

“God’s work done in God’s way will never lack God’s supply”

“God isn’t looking for people of great faith, but for individuals ready to follow Him”

“The Great Commission is not an option to be considered; it is a command to be obeyed”

“If I had 1,000 lives, I’d give them all for China”

“God uses men who are weak and feeble enough to lean on him.”

(Note from Pastor Dunham: This is a long article that I ran across in my studies today. To see it all, please go the post on our website.)

By E. A. Marshall

An address to the 1913 Graduating Class of The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago

Found in the September 1913 issue of “The Christian Workers Magazine.”

JESUS CHRIST is often considered as a preacher, a teacher, a personal worker, or as a healer; tonight we are to consider Him as a missionary. Among these various callings which may be attributed to Him, that of the missionary stands out pre-eminent. His characteristics, commission and work entitled Him to be placed as the file leader of the whole enterprise. No one who understands the spiritual needs of man, and the righteousness of God, will essay to step before Him and call upon the world’s benighted races to follow human guidance. In person, in teaching, in example and in service, Jesus stands alone and unapproachable; these making him the ideal pattern of the church for all people in all ages and times.

This is from Brother Ron Maggard’s blog, “Let Us Go Into The Next Towns.” It is great to see the Lord move in the lives of people.

Baptism Of Manuel Tziqui Xum

Last Friday night I met with Jorge Gomez, our co-pastor and the young man in the picture.  Manuel Xum has been coming to our church for the last year.  In one of our services he trusted Christ.  Since that day, by his own testimony, his life was changed forever.  He started to faithfully attend all the services.  He began to read his Bible.  He began to be careful about his friends.  He began to enjoy serving the Lord.  He wanted to be baptized.  So this past week we had the priveledge and joy of seeing Manuel follow the Lord in baptism.

Manuel is from a small village near Xohola, Guatemala.  I have visited Xohola a number of times.  It is not far from out mission work in Xejuyup.  Manuel really wants to grow in his relationship with Christ.  Pray for him.
