Half Way!

Well, we are over half way this morning. Yesterday, Sunday, we had a worship service in the morning and then just rested in the afternoon. Randy preached a powerful message from 1 Peter chapter 5 on Satan the roaring lion. It was nice to have the afternoon off.

I attached a short video of the worship time here. We begin every morning with about 30 minutes of worship. Although Randy and I have no idea what is being sung we are able to sense the presence of God here.

The men here have been asking some very powerful and challenging questions. In teaching through the book of 1 Peter Randy has had lots of questions on persecution. It has been overwhelming to hear what some of these guys go through in their home towns. It is convicting to think how easy we have it in the States.

On Saturday I taught through Matthew 5:31-32 which is about divorce. One of the pastors told us about a man in his church who came to Christ but has two wives. He was asking us how we would advise him to lead this man. Should the man divorce one wife? What should he do? Like I said, tough questions.

Continue to pray for us. Randy has two more lectures and I have three. During the last lecture we are going to share communion together and pray for all of the men. Randy and I miss you all and although we are having a great time are starting to long for our own beds.

May the grace and peace of God impact you today.
Brian
