Expect great things from God and seek great things for God

"Expect great things from God and seek great things for God." - William Cree, the father of modern missions
“Expect great things from God; attempt great things for God.” –William Carey

On March 11th, I was leading a sister gathering on Jeju Island, South Korea. At that time, we were enjoying the beautiful scenery of Jeju Island, and suddenly the TV showed pictures of a tsunami and a magnitude 9 earthquake in neighboring Japan. , live broadcast of various unimaginable disaster scenes, making us across the sea deeply saddened by the ruthless ravages of disasters!

Recently, catastrophes have been breaking out all over the world, and many lost souls have perished. It’s like an alarm bell has sounded, forcing us to be more alert and prepared for the Lord’s return!

I remembered that thirty years ago, I was invited to attend a "Celebrate Asia" party. I was surprised to find that in addition to people with "faces like mine," there were also people of all races and shapes. facial features. It turns out that I forgot that Asia has the two most populous countries in the world: China and India, and most Chinese, who are also Asians, like me, are almost completely unfamiliar with India!

Heavenly Father does not want anyone to perish, but wants everyone to be saved. What is God doing in India, which has the second largest population in the world (1.2 billion) but is also one of the poorest countries in the world? For India, which has joined Brazil, Russia, China, and South Africa in the BRICS in recent years, what opportunities and responsibilities do we, as Christians, have?

Based on this concern and burden, the editorial team of "The Kingdom of God" has specially planned a heavyweight report on India that is both macro and detailed:

‧The talent unit "Overview of India's Political and Economic Situation and Religious Development" helps us quickly get to the root of India's problems.
‧Outreach unit "Good Samaritan in India", learn about India's current needs through the service of the founders, Thomas and his wife.
‧The community unit "Daughters of Kerala" takes us back to the birthplace of Indian Christians and gives us a glimpse of the reality of Orthodox Christianity.
‧Cultural unit "Singing in the Wind" looks at the conflict between culture and values from the Indian movie "Three Idiots in Bollywood".

In addition, the other two units also have rich and practical content:

‧ The two articles in the related unit "Managing Upward" can help companies, churches or gospel organizations achieve breakthrough influence. Of course, I am convinced that you will definitely not want to miss the second lecture on "Cutting and Pasting Beliefs, Illuminating Life" in the talent section and "The World of Jin Yong's Martial Arts" in the cultural section.

I have the honor to be the first reader. I must say that when reading this issue of the magazine, not only did my mind have to work overtime, my heart was repeatedly impacted, and my life was constantly shaken. I also couldn't help but praise, thank and pray from my mouth.

Finally, when you receive this issue of the magazine, the KRC Cultural Practice Camp in Pennsylvania will be held from August 3 to 15. Starting this year, the camp will launch a children's growth camp specifically for children aged five to 11, teaching them how to deal with anger, how to become peacemakers, and even how to manage money! The content is exciting and we hope that your whole family will attend the event and experience spiritual growth together. May God bless you greatly!
