It rains here in the spring. Which is crazy. Lots and lots of rain in the last week. Last week it was beautiful! Sunny, warm. This week is rainy and fairly warm, but rainy and dreary mostly.
This was last week in Bratislava at a beautiful blue church. I haven't taken any pictures of the rain.
Last week we had a video series from a speaker from the states, Lance Wallnau. It actually was really great. It is about not only being focused on saving souls, but also discipling the nations and changing our cultures. It was very interesting and exciting. I think this is the teaching that many of the youth in the church need to hear right now. Because we don't want an exit strategy. And that is what the salvation message kinda is... hold on until you die or Christ comes back because then its eternity with Him. But this message adds to that by saying that we need to be influential and change the society for the good, that God actually has a mission that is greater than just saving the world, it includes changing the world and nations that we live in.
I really want to get the video series and start spreading the message. Because I think lots of people have this sort of thing on their hearts, they just think that they are being bad Christians by trying to be influential people who are going to fight for godliness in our culture.
So that was last week. This week is something a little more personal, essentially a week to find our strengths and goals to help us what to do next. What to do with the rest of our lives. It has been really interesting too. I realized today that it is exactly two weeks until we are done DTS. Then it is going to be goodbyes and busses and airplanes. How crazy!
