Too often we over complicate life.

There is a renewed understanding about the Great Commission in some churches. Jesus is calling all His followers to GO and make DISCIPLES – not converts, or churches. Where there are disciples there will be churches, but the call is to make disciples.

This Does Two Things

It puts things in their rightful order.

It becomes something that every believer is able to do.

A tentmaker shared with me this story which illustrates how God works in calling people to himself.

Talking about what God is doing in parts of Asia can be a sensitive topic which can lead to increased persecution if it comes to the attention of authorities. Due to the sensitive nature of the details the name of the person in this story has been changed to Timothy (see 2 Tim 2.2), but the events of the story are true.

I was recently with our team and Timothy shared an amazing story of Father at work, which I would like to share with you.

Timothy met a neighbor in front of his home and got to talking about his relationship with Jesus.  A few days later during another conversation with his neighbor he was interrupted by a call to come and pray for someone.  His neighbor asked if he could tag along. On returning, the neighbor asked him, “How much do you charge for doing prayers?”  Timothy said, “I don’t charge anything, that’s not how Jesus works in our lives” and proceeded to share further about his relationship with Jesus.
