Today I have finished the marathon of teaching through 1 & 2 Timothy. It always does my heart good to be reminded by these Pastoral Epistles about the priorities of church life and ministry. Today the questions that flowed from the students gave insights into the understanding that they were gaining. The battle for them will indeed be hard, with many going back to very untaught leaders who in turn need to be instructed by them. There is much patience required in working in these village areas and the ongoing training that the Bible School facilitates to these rural places is vital for the growth and spiritual health of these churches.
Tomorrow morning at 6am we depart for churches in the Kaswetele zone. I don’t know much about them but look forward with anticipation to learn of the work there. Please pray once again for clarity in teaching and that people’s hearts will be touched by God’s truth.
