Merry Christmas

I want to thank you all for your support over the past few months.  We at tranzsend have truly appreciated your gifts, your prayers, and your encouragement as we have navigated difficult times.  One thing is for certain… we head into a future where great things will happen for the Kingdom of God.

I’ve just finished reading Richard Stearns book “The hole in our Gospel”, a tremendous read but a challenging one.  Another thing for certain about the future is that if we as the body of Christ do not more intentionally get about our Fathers business through bringing the good news to all people, especially the poor, we will have a lot to answer for at judgement day.

A word of caution… if you are happy with the status quo DON’T read this book.  If you believe our duty is to focus only on those who are lost in our immediate community DON’T read this book.  If on the other hand you want to unravel the knot in your stomach that there is more to the gospel than what you currently experience then READ the book.  It will challenge you, it will change you and I pray it will give you more resolve to engage the world we live in.

We celebrate one of the most powerful acts of grace one could imagine.  God the Father chose to send his Son in spectacular fashion to incarnate himself in our world.  May we reflect on that this Christmas time as we consider our response to a world that is in great need.  May you be inspired, resourced and mobilised to join God in his work around the globe.

Merry Christmas, Peter Mihaere
