The Bible speaks of provision and God the provider numerous times. Surely many of us, as Christians, has experienced God's amazing provision at some point in our lives in the same way it is written in the scriptures. This is true also for the URN project, which raised more than R60 000 in less than three weeks to feed the needy and the hungry masses of Niger.   Not only has God blessed this project in miraculous ways with finances, open doors and heaps of favour, but He is using this project as a means to reach more and more...

In C.S. Lewis' Prince Caspian, Aslan says to Lucy, "Every year that you grow, you will find me bigger." We just completed our third country, and I find Jesus bigger than ever before. It took us about 2 weeks of travelling to get from Brazil to Suriname. During this time I realised that another way travelling adventures can enrich our faith is simply by showing us new facets of God’s exotic world, confronting us with its gloriously peculiar variety and terrifying power.  When we encounter Him on the road, in a foreign land, in cultures and landscapes utterly alien to...

To you, the school of the nations   This is a thank you. Or an attempt at acknowledgement. To the countless faces and people that I have crossed paths with in the past few years.    I once heard a sermon of the way that we are rocks on a river bed, being tossed and turned and swept downstream. And as we bump shoulders with one another, a forming takes place. God determines the length and the depth but still - we are formed in different ways by the people around us.   Words cannot describe the forming that has...

What an absolute privilege it is to be here in Zambia. For the past few days we have been learning about missions and what it really means to be a missionary. Once we had done the theory side of it all, it was time to really put it all into practice. Each of our teams had the opportunity to go and stay in a local village for two days. The yellow team had the blessing of going to the Kampundu village.

Our first official blog as the Lime Team!

There is a song : THIS IS WHAT LOVE DOES....BY LIENKA. Amazing song. But this blog is about something else...this is what China does...People are always searching for something...They build high towers to the clouds...They worship foreign gods in temples, some are mere idols shaped by human hands....In the streets are hotels, restaurants, markets, and bike shops. And in the still late night, the hungry beggar creeps forward from the shadows...emerging half way into the light. Then he eats his daily meal, the wrotten fruit, waste which was "prepared" for him just an hour before...There is a huge need. Everywhere. Only...

Fear contradicts Love! During our time here in Thailand, a car rolled off the road and ended up smashed at the side of the road. Welman and I were about forty meters behind that car when all this took place. We stopped and miraculously all 4 people inside the car came out alive.  It then just struck me. In a blink of an eye four people’s lives could have ended just there and then, without warning. And it is sad for me to say, but the harsh reality of all of this is that all four of those people were...

While our first week in Nepal we focused on encouraging the churches, the second week we focused on adding to them. After a six hour bus ride to Pokhara we immediately started walking to unreached villages, sharing the truth with the people and handing out tracts written in Nepali. We had some great conversations and people were usually willing to listen to us. God really protected us there because after we got back Ben (The Nepali missionary we stayed with) told us that the people in those villages usually attack Christians and he had been too scared to go until now....
