More than a wind gust

Blogging again

This is my first blog post in a long while! For different reasons I have unfortunately not been so active here. I will now take up blogging again, since there are so many things to tell and share. I hope you as a reader will enjoy reading.

EuroAsian Faith Conference

I am on a plane back home from Moscow. Happy to have participated in the Word of Life's Euro Asian Faith Conference with hundreds of pastors coming in from all over Russia, the Baltics, Caucasus, Central Asia, Israel and Vietnam. I am sure I missed some nations.

Two main speakers were Mark Connors from Australia and Cash Luna from Guatemala, both with experience of leading huge churches. Mark Connors is a friend of ours since many years and shared challenging and instructive messages about church growth and outreach. Cash Luna leads Casa de Dios which is one of the fast growing churches in Latin America. Great to get a taste of that revival which is so strong and sweeps across the nations of South and Central America. The Latino soul fits very well with the Russian!

Many pastors of the WOL movement preached and shared their experiences in panel talks and short sessions, something that was very appreciated. So many gifts!!!

More than a wind gust

It is truly encouraging to see how the Word of Life movement lives on, in the former Soviet Union. New pastors and leaders are raised up, new churches planted and established ones growing. What we saw in these nations during the dramatic 90:s was not just a “wind of the spirit”, but rather something strong and powerful that was planted that continues to spread and multiply today. A resilient church with a living vision and passion to make a difference. That bids good for the future!
