WELCOME TO MY BLOG

If there's one thing I've learned over many years of ministry, it's that there is always something more to learn. God is taking me to new places and it's exciting. Years of church revitalization ministry have built to this moment when God is leading me to standardize and multiply. The HIGH M-PACT Revitalization Catalog of Materials is nearing completion and will soon be ready for broad distribution. A three-city tour of training conferences in South Korea is scheduled for February 2009. The Catalog will be complete by then, with some components already translated into Korean.

Teaching, training and consulting with local, regional and national church organizations is peaking with promising pastors and leaders emerging to be developed as coaches and trainers, setting the stage for multiplication. Potential for ministry in Zambia and South Africa has been discussed. Most recently an opportunity to pursue a Ph.D. in Missiology through the South Asia Institute for Advanced Christian Studies has been discovered. The institute is in Bangalore, India where I would conduct training and consultation as well as study.

I continue to be amazed at how many dedicated, creative and innovative people are on this planet, serving God in remarkable ways. New writers, or writers that are new to me, are coming into my world weekly and I struggle to keep up with all there is to seek and find. I just want to be part of the global conversation.

Pray for me to run with the Lord, not ahead, not behind, always in step. Life and ministry are good. Welcome to my blog!
