What it's all about!

This past weekend, Linda, Nathan & I went to Berlin, Germany, for the Greater Europe Mission Field Leaders’ Conference. What a great time of fellowship with men & women who are re-capturing the desire & urgency to win Europe to Christ!

Greater Europe Mission has re-tooled it’s vision & mission statements. In case you’re interested, here they are:

Vision: God expanding His Kingdom through all people of Europe to the world
Mission: Disciple all peoples of Europe through rapidly reproducing churches

What is exciting to me is the focus/emphasis on the word “disciple.” 12 1/2 years ago, Linda & I came to Europe with our 4 kids as a response to God’s calling & leading.

Why did God call us here? To make disciples who would make disciples who would make disciples! Just as in 1 Tim. 2:2, “...and what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.” I like to call this “D4.” 4 generations of disciples.

Please pray for us as we continue to “make disciples of all nations” (Slovakia, Georgia, Ireland, and more!)!
