One of the questions I know I’ll get each time I’ve done a training anywhere – US and overseas – is “Don’t you feel it’s important for people to know where things are in the Bible?” Absolutely. But every situation it is not needed or sometimes even right to whip out a Bible and “get my preach on”.
In Ghana a cool scene occurred. One guy said something like “I can’t memorize the Bible. I can’t read and I only know a couple verses.” We had just done four stories together and he had done an incredible job. When I told him that the four stories were made up of over sixty verses, he got WIDE EYED and a huge grin and all the brothers around him started cheering him, rubbing his head, and making noise. It was great.
Terrific work! This is the type of information that should be shared around the web. Shame on the search engines for not positioning this post higher!
I love it. Thank God for this training and His kingdom spreading throughout the world!
