NEWS LETTER: OCTOBER 2017

Developments:
Last month—after waiting on the Lord for quite some time for His direction ministry wise—I’ve been feeling led to start the production of new devotional, short Bible teaching videos in English to share locally.

The idea is to let the river of the gospel of the grace of God within me find an outlet, to continue to flood the world with the richness of the goodness of God in Christ Jesus. For as Paul expresses in 1 Corinthians 9:16 “…woe is me if I do not preach the gospel!”

Father, anoint my work that Your name be glorified and Your people be blessed with growth in grace and in the knowledge of You—Him Whom to know is life eternal..!
