In country training

Here are some highlights that are applicable no matter where you are living and serving:

* We are not salesmen, we are treasure hunters looking for the treasure of faith. We often have to dig around in the soil of lives to find it.
* We must obey God and His Word and encourage other people to obey.
* How you feel is not relevant in how God can use you. He has prepared you.
* Put your life in the right place to be blessed by God. (An example was shared that if you have a dirty foot, you must place it under the running water for it to get cleaned.) Align yourself with God's plan for you, and you will be blessed beyond measure.
* We are to make disciples that are disciple makers.

The in-country servants use eleven discipleship lessons with those who are open. They then encourage the student to teach these lessons to others. Each element has a simple picture and sometimes a hand gesture, which allows these lessons to be taught, learned, and shared by even those who are unable to read. The lessons begin with Christ's death and resurrection and progress to five healthy habits of a believer and conclude with lessons on how to have a house church.

I am so excited that they have such a thorough plan of follow-up for those we visited. Pray for safety, endurance, and discernment as they share.
