Finishing in Manila
by JM · 06 May 2008
The International Leadership Forum has been a whirlwind of information, stories, worship and connections. It has been a good week, but I am looking forward to being home with my family. In what little time I have had so far to reflect on the forum, I have thought mostly about the relationship between family and ministry.
One couple I met who are Americans working among churches in Sydney, Australia told me that whenever they move as a family for mission, they ask for input from their children, so that they can at least voice concerns, excitement and such. They also have always told their children that it is not "Daddy's job" but "the life God has called their entire family into".
I am leaving at 3:00 AM PHT for Japan and then home again.
