A Kingdom with No End

I often think and pray about the nations of this world, including our own.  With so much conflict and civil unrest, it can at times be overwhelming. There are wars and rumors of wars, there’s corruption in governments, there’s the horrible mistreatment of humans and the mistreatment of animals. Additionally, there is the destruction of the Earth and poor environmental practices. There’s extreme poverty, fanatical leadership practices harming many, a lack of access to clean water, disease, and natural disasters. The list goes on and on. Not one nation on this earth has ever gotten it right, and none will last forever. Jesus had much to say about His Kingdom, the eternal Kingdom, a Kingdom that is both here and not yet.

There’s still time…will you join us?

We receive life-transforming testimonials all the time from attendees at our Bridges training events, which into unreached people groups. Here’s a very recent testimonial from a woman in a remote region in South Asia:

“Rupa (name changed for her privacy) was afraid to share about Jesus among her Hindu friends and neighbors. During a Bridges training, God began to change her. She learned how powerful a simple story from the Bible can be, and how God can use our personal testimony to touch hearts. Rupa was reminded that the gospel is good news for all people, and that the Holy Spirit is the One who works in hearts, not our clever words. Step by step, Rupa received new courage and hope. After the training, she made a decision in her heart:
“Lord, I will not be silent anymore. Give me boldness and wisdom to share Your story with my Hindu brothers and sisters.”
