A Missionary's blog focused on church planting and stories of faith from the field.

"Christianity is the story of how the rightful King has landed, you might say in disguise, and is calling us all to take part in His great campaign of sabotage"

The Ministry I work through.
Because that's where Paul went on his first mission trip.
Acts 13:1-6
1In the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen (who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch) and Saul. 2While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them." 3So after they had fasted and prayed, they placed their hands on them and sent them off. 4The two of them, sent on their way by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleucia and sailed from there to Cyprus. 5When they arrived at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the Jewish synagogues. John was with them as their helper.
6They traveled through the whole island until they came to Paphos.
Halfway to Africa. Two hours or so to Detroit, then 9+ hours to Amsterdam. Waiting about four hours to catch the next 9+ hour flight to Nairobi. Frustrating to sit in a cool city like Amsterdam for a few hours and not see a lick of it.
