savez-vous où nous allons?

'invitation à VENIR AVEC NOUS, ne concerne pas seulement l'invitation à vivre en relation avec le Christ Jésus, mais c'est une double invitation pour les croyants à SE JOINDRE à I'CUVRE DU ROYAUME. Cette invitation est probablement la partie la plus excitante et la plus intimidate d'être un croyant en Christ, de marcher dans une relation avec le Père et de se joindre à la communion du Saint-Esprit, mais dire OUI à cette invitation est crucial pour que le

do you know where we are going?

In 2011, I was living and working in Babylon, Namibia -- an informal settlement outside the capital city, of Windhoek. We were on our way out to do ministry in a new area and were waiting to meet pastor Ephraim, our local contact, on the corner of the Shoprite centre. We didn't know this at the time, but that corner was an informal taxi rank of sorts, and people came from all over to catch a minibus to take their commute to or from work in the city. We were driving a 12-seater Sprinter bus at the time and blended in with the many other taxis. While we were waiting, a group of three people came up to the window and asked for a ride, "Are you going to Eros?" they asked. And Jurgens, who was on my team, promptly replied, "No, we're going to heaven! Are you coming with us?" The invitation to COME WITH US, not only pertains to the invitation of living in relationship with Christ Jesus, but it is a two-fold invitation for believers to JOIN in the WORK OF THE KINGDOM. This invitation is probably the most exciting and most daunting part of being a believer in Christ, walking in a relationship with the Father, and joining in the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, yet, it is crucial to make heaven manifest on earth.

Hartspad

Hartspad is an Afrikaans word meaning “path of the heart”. When I started using #runwildlivefree in 2018, it was because of a life-altering adventure I said yes to — stepping out in faith, and acting in obedience to the call of God on my life. May your heart be lead on paths of righteousness. May you be filled and refreshed by Holy Spirit. May you be guided by Him in all things. And may you have the courage to step into the Great Unknown, to pioneer the things that He has called you to!

Overland Missions field report: June

COVID-19 put the world into unknown territory. As something new happened in the world, something new was happening in Mozambique. Four students traveled to Mozambique, unaware that a historic world lockdown would soon occur. Planes, busses, and 4x4s carried them over sea and dusty, sandy roads to reach our base in Inhambane, Mozambique. These students arrived just weeks before worldwide lockdowns forced border closures and flight cancelations. They were there to experience a move of God and connect with Him in a new way as participants in the first ever Advanced Mission Training outside of Zambia. Little did they know how different it would be! Read what happened next!

The plans and purposes of the Lord are never stopped or hinderd, or even delayed by anything in this world. We all anticipate the day where we will be together in DRC, advancing the Kingdom and sharing the Word of God. For now, we remain faithful in doing what we can do to prepare for post-pandemic ministry.

Rapid 14

During the summer holiday of 2018, I visited Liezl and Arthur at their home in Livingstone, Zambia. I met this lovely family in 2016, when they were visiting my home church in South Africa. I remember being excited by the way they spoke about Kingdom and ministry and travel, and we kept in touch. It was during this visit to Zambia, my second trip to Zambia with in a year, that God started speaking to me about strategic relationships.
