Isaiah 49:6 tells the prophet he is to be a light to the nations, and so should each of us that know the grace of the Lord. This is indeed the greater task to which we should aspire. Isaiah was shortsighted and thought he was only a minister to the Hebrews but God said that task was ...Too Small A Thing... and that He would be a witness to the enitre earth. And so he wrote a book we read 2700 years later.

Teaching BTCP In Ethiopia

Basic to studying the Word of God is a consistent method by which to interpret the Word of God. This course is the first of the The Bible Training Center for Pastors which is a 10 course systematic training that requires a lay pastor to complete 400 actual classroom hours of training. This is the reason that I am traveling to Ethiopia. We will begin tomorrow on Course # 1 Biblical Interpretation Methods on Wednesday. This is a 40 hour course. We will be teaching ten plus hours each day. Pray for out voices to hold and for the rear ends and ears of the pastors not to grow weary.

While I am there there is also a team from Athens TX drilling water wells in the Ethiopian mountains. I will have the opportunity to work and observe the well drilling up close and personal. We are praying God will be able to open a door for us to invest in equipment and take advantage of the need to help churches and pastors with clean water in Nicaragua.

I desire your prayers for me and for the pastors I will grow close with while in Ethiopia. Thank you for praying. The photo is the teaching of BTCP in Lesotho Africa and in Puerto Cabeza Nicaragua.
