Globalization: Re-uniting the Tower of Babel
Genesis 11:9 tells us that “the Lord confused the language of the whole world. From there the LORD scattered them over the face of the whole earth.” He did that because their purpose was to make a name for themselves and not to accept that God is the One for them; being part of His
DetailsThe Pencil of God
I was watching the movie “Mother Teresa” last night and it was very inspiring. The priest who came to check on her request to start a new congregation, orginally didn’t even want to step out of the Kalkata airport. He wasn’t interested in the vision Mother Teresa had, he didn’t see it. Even Mother Teresa
Details“Their memories are short”
President Obama replied in his speech to the skepticales reminding them their memories are short. They’re saying that the message of hope is too grand and that we can’t accomplish all this vision. It reminds me of how we forget about God’s faithful when we run into crisis. That’s the age old issue that makes
DetailsFreedom
Throughout life, we learn about freedom: Jesus sets us free, which means we’re not anxious about life’s mysteries, emergencies or surprises, because we know He’s in control and He’s faithful. The deeper our relationship is with Him, the more we experience His faithfulness. Living in the USA, I learned more about freedom, human rights and
DetailsTeam Work!
I was supposed to put this up about 2 months ago, but I guess better late than never! In the begining of November, a team of 7 wonderful people went on an adventure to install and setup a VoIP phone system at a Camp in the deserts of Egypt, called Wadi Sports Camp. It was
DetailsThe World is Flat; Globalization 0.1
So, Thomas Friedman talks about 2 dates: 11/9 and 9/11… I have a third date! Genesis 11/9… “That is why it was called Babel —because there the LORD confused the language of the whole world. From there the LORD scattered them over the face of the whole earth.” Globalization was at its fullest pre-Genesis 11/9.
DetailsThe World is Flat
I’ve been reading Thomas Friedman’s “The World is Flat” on and off. Haven’t finished yet, but I’m enjoying it. He talks about a couple dates, 11/9 and 9/11… 11/9/1989 was the date the Berlin wall was opened and the world was introduced to new possibilities of partnering, innovating and globalization. Usually, one would expect peace
DetailsReconciliation!
“For if, when we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!” Romans 5:10 NIV The Willow Christmas service is amazing this year. It’s about The Light, who came to the world, and about us as
DetailsChurch Leadership in Action
I heard today that our church in Alexandria gathered some of its leaders and went on a retreat! They played the Team Edition videos of Bill Hybels, TD Jakes and Patrick Lencioni’s talks. They had a great time discussing what they learned from the sessions and talked about what they can do with what they
DetailsGlobal Leadership Summit in Egypt
I’m still so excited! It’s been over a month now, and this post is way overdue! On November 7 & 8, we had an amazing event that made up for any stress I had this year! After more than a year of preparation, we had our first Willow Creek Global Leadership Summit in the Middle
