On Leading Well

Year: 2007

  • Small World Snapshot

    Here are a few quick pix of the CM2007 scene. I cycled through goosebumps and tears of joy several times last night, especially during the rocking worship time led by Undignified (a CCC band of Korean students and staff from LA).

    Hope this gives you a brief picture. Rev 7:9 snapshot of the day: I rode down to breakfast on the elevator with students from Korea, Afganistan and Argentina. Then later, I enjoyed a conversation in Chinese with an East Asia STINTer who had just returned from a year in Uzbekistan.

    Small, tiny little world. Let’s go change it.

  • Korea: Now It Only Takes 27 Hours…

    When Hudson Taylor left England for China 140-odd years ago, the boat ride took 23 weeks. And he went alone. At 21 years old.

    How times have changed. That’s Keith Bubalo (check out his blog) and me waiting for bags at the Incheon airport. We were just passing through en route to Busan, South Korea. We’ll be joining 16,000 thousand college students and CCC staff members from 127 countries this week. New pages will be written in missions history. Yes, we are here to hear from God and help change the world.

    It only took me 27 hours door-to-door from Orlando to Busan hotel bed.
    Lesson for aspiring world changers: There has never been a riper, more accessible time in world history to consider going to the remotest parts of the earth.

  • Who Is This King of Glory?

    We just moved 10,000 miles from Asia to Orlando, Florida. You know who your real friends are when they leave BlueBell ice cream in the freezer awaiting your arrival. Nice touch. Tomorrow morning our shipment arrives from Singapore, but I won’t be here to help unpack. I’ll be on a 24-hour air journey to Busan, South Korea, to join about 16,000 or so like-minded radicals who want to change the world. There’s something kind of exciting about that.

    This morning found me meditating on Psalm 24, extolling the King of Glory. I believe I am about to see his glory show up in a very powerful way. Lord (and internet) willing, I hope to keep you posted. In case I miss a few days, feel free to catch it yourself at http://www.cm2007.net/.
