We will never forget! This young American man says they aren't taught in school what really happened and who did it. What??!! I'm not American and don't know what's going on in school and society.
I live in Finland but I remember so clearly this day, following the news on TV and even watched the second plane crashing in real time. I was so shaken... I remember going to a grocery stores, and telling about it to a man that I don't know very well. This was before the smartphone era...

Quotes from Houses that Change the World, by Wolfgang Simson (1998). He is German, and has been a missionary in India, and seen multiplication of house churches. He uses the same vocabulary as in the podcast interview (some days ago) by @sinbach called 'From Megachurch to Multiplication'.
I've read this kind of books for ten years, but I've met very few where I live that want to give up their traditional way of doing Church or even want to be challenged in their way of thinking, as: Am I doing it by the Book? What does God want? Are we sharing the Gospel Message or are we only after more members and financial gifts? Are we empowering (sending out) or controlling (keeping) people? Do we use money only to build a reputation, or give to those in need?
Asked yourself, when have you experienced real friendship among believers, the tangible presence of God, personal growth, been challenged, learnt valuable lessons, been educated etc.? For me, it's almost never been Sunday mornings.

Facebook and Instagram censorship are ridiculous! The Made by Jim Bob account is censored and deleted from Instagram, over and over! He creates new accounts with similar names... This is one example of the dangerous memes he is sharing... 😉 What happened to free speech? I wish more people would be on DD!

This Sunday, let's remember our brothers and sisters being persecuted.
A church in Chengdu gets a surprise visit from the police during their Sunday morning worship service. Then the believers do something that the police rarely see and they are SHOCKED...

We are on one of our biggest adventures right now. can't say much about it but would appreciate your prayers.
Taking pictures at sunset close to our home. A beautiful field of sunflowers. My son taught me that they face east - and these actually do! He's learnt it from Minecraft... that strange game with big pixels is teaching him lots of things, not to mention English vocabulary. He is studying English his fourth year in school, and he understands more than I did his age (13).

We have had a crazy couple of weeks here!
We were able to spend some time with a young person and give them a Bible. So exciting!
However here in China, it’s getting harder and harder all the time for us and our Chinese brothers and sisters.
One thing that has really irked me lately is how many Americans and Canadians are crying out “ our country is communist now”
And here were are in China shaking our heads saying “ ummm nope! Your nothing like here!”
Maybe things could head that way but for now it’s nothing like living in a country with millions of cameras tracking every move, guards everywhere, police everywhere, and a gov always watching, citizen credit scores, etc., social pressure that is absolutely intense, 99% conviction rate, and you can get life in prison for stealing a bike if they feel like it.
Just a few thoughts.
China is filled with beautiful people. Precious souls. They suffer here more than you know.

What makes a vaccine "safe"? Who determines that? What is the testing process like? Watch as Del Bigtree answers all of these questions & walks us through the vaccine approval process. 👉 https://www.brighteon.com/cdd0b532-12e7-4747-8e99-f43150abab0b
The science of vaccine is not settled. And to claim that a science is settled, is non-scientific at the core.

I am often asked by some friends “What have you done today to combat racism?” or “What have you done to show you’re anti-racist?” Here’s a great article written by a black woman with the purpose of pointing out the Woke Trick in those statements...and others.

Our NEW BOOK China and End-Time Prophecy is out NOW.
For the first time we dissect the Biblical connection between ancient prophecy and China’s modern missions phenomenon that most Christians are simply not aware of.
If you are hoping that this book predicts the return of Christ by mathematical equations, Nostradamus quotes, or use Mayan prophecies, THIS IS NOT THE BOOK FOR YOU.
However THIS BOOK does clearly show a clear and undeniable connection between the revivals in China, President Xi's ONE BELT ONE ROAD Initiative, the completion of the Great Commission, Biblical prophecy of the Last Days and why the return of Christ is unstoppable.

Prayer warriors – we need your prayers!

The Taliban is using sophisticated biometric equipment that they have captured from the military, and they are using it to go door-to-door to hunt down Christians.
BTJ is working with our hackers to develop a way to disable this equipment. It is a long shot, but our God is ABLE!
Prayers are desperately needed.
