4 more days . . .

Here we go . . . 31 of your 32 representatives for Team Nicaragua:

Jesus said to "follow me and I will make you fishers of men."

We have been spending a lot of time trying to mine out the nuggets of truth that are packed into these simple words. What are we to do? Who are we to follow? What does it mean to follow? What will be the result? Who changes us? What are we change into? What were we focused on before this transformation? etc . . .

In the book real life discipleship, a disciple is defined as one who 1) knows and follows Christ 2) is being changed by Christ & 3) is committed to the mission of Christ.

As you pray for us, I challenge you to ask yourself if you are also on the path to becoming a real disciple. I am continually amazed at what happens when we make good choices and become obedient.

Thanks for partnering on this journey with us. I believe you will be inspired, encouraged and challenged over the next few weeks. So please provide your feedback, we would love to hear from you.
