Today Josh and I were able to purchase brand new NIV Study Bibles in the language of the people we are with. They are really NICE (cross references, notes, maps, concordance...). The good news is that they only cost around $12/Bible. They would cost 3 times that much in US. We have bought 76 of them so far to give to the men who are both being trained this year and also to give to the men who are planting churches right now. It is awesome!!! This one book will greatly assist these men as they seek to make disciple makers of Christ and plant churches.
Concerning the man that I mentioned in a previous blog, I missed him by about 1/2 hour tonight when I returned from ANURAG. He did come and one of the leaders did give him a NT. That is way cool! Jesus open this man's heart to see that You alone are God and only through You is LIFE found, both now and for eternity. Keep praying for this retired man, that before he "RETIRES" Jesus Christ will be revealed in his heart and he will repent of his sin and trust Christ to save him.
