OKC

I was in OKC this last weekend. Checked out a ministry that is raising up an urban missions base in OKC. Got to hang out with some friends and see the OKC memorial for the first time, ironically was on the anniversary of that tragic event. It was honestly really great to be around the poor. I have missed it. It's a season and a reason for me to be in the USA and in the suburbs and taking some time for refuge. But, while I'm here eating McDonalds or watching a movie, Africa still exists. While I am typing, a nomad is walking from place to place with no knowledge that Jesus exists.

As the Lord leads, a group of us being sent out to Africa together this September may take a few weeks or a month to be at this missions base. They are looking to develop an Acts 2:42 lifestyle, simply put living together and worshiping together and reaching people together. Truly that is what I dream of in my life and ministry. Above even dreaming of Africa I dream of being with a group of believers that daily live to contend for His presence and for visitations of His Glory.

Thanks for praying. It's all coming along as we go. More to come.
