A HUGE OPPORTUNITY RIGHT IN FRONT OF US !!

One of the biggest 'ah-ha' moments of this assessment trip to Myanmar was that a huge opening for understanding God's love exists within the Buddhist monks of Myanmar.

Pastors and church leaders told us many times that even though they cannot give a BIBLE to a Buddhist monk, we CAN give them the PurposeDriven Life book ...and they read it...and they are finding Christ. Monks are engaged in a journey to find TRUTH and when the light shines in the darkness, there is such a clear distinction that the Holy Spirit begins to stir...and lives are changed.

Our new friends are telling us that hundreds of monks have given their lives to Jesus Christ...have confessed their sins...and have asked the Lord to save them....

That's a bit of a mind bender for me, because I have put these guys in a box titled 'LOST' and some are turning up in the 'FOUND' file...Does this blow up some of your pre-conceived notions about how God works?

Please take a moment and pray for everyone who is seeking to know God...and the power of His Son's death and resurrection, and His Sprit's indwelling comfort, in a time of great loss.
