Wow! A seemingly small detail caught my heart. Nate Saint is portrayed as having a sense of urgency about reaching the Wadoni.. but it's not just from the usual motivation of living out the Great Commission. That is present but his passion also comes from a realization that these people are about to vanish from the planet. He seems to sense the power of the "right now", that this moment might be the last opportunity. I suppose if we are honest about human culture, the clock is ticking for us all... it just seems more obvious in times of famine, disease, genocide, etc. I want to feel the same "panic" about my neighbors here in the Emerald City AND I want to feel like the people livng in crisis in others places are my neighbors. That's where I think God is taking me. Peace and Courage N,

I've already started the ball rolling. I've been dragging my feet for way to long (disobedience). I'm filling out an application to go on staff with Great Commission Ministries. I'm pushing 45, with 12 years of service in at UPS. This ministry position will require raising my own support to go full-time. This will be far and away the greatest challenge, that's why I'm so thankful for our faithful Lord and Creator. Can't wait to see the movie. Small town Decorah may not get it, may have to travel to a larger town to see it. ROAD TRIP!!! Thanks for the encouragement, and as someone once said;"Stay off the paved way!" Andy Niza,

Can’t wait to see the movie. Small town Decorah may not get it, may have to travel to a larger town to see it. ROAD TRIP!!!

Thanks for the encouragement, and as someone once said;”Stay off the paved way!”

Especially if we realize we aren't willing... I've been there way too often - I don't like to admit it. Partial answer -- just start obeying. (This seems too simple but Tommy has hit the nail on the head. Respond and then keep responding to the Holy Spirit.) My first real venture isn't terribly brave (familiar person) but I'll be going to http://www.trinitychurchonline.net/ mid-February to "support" the ministry that is happening in and around the Katrina disaster. Folks I want to encourage you to check out Pastor Sprague's emails and pray for him. I love his signature line -- "Betting the Farm on God". I guess I strayed from the original comment but he may help inspire you. Niza,

When Jesus called His disciples "they left everything and followed Him." This verse, and many like it, haunt as well as thrill my soul. I want so much to do the same, yet I don't. I feel more like the rich young ruler than a follower of Christ. What shall we do, niza? What will we do? niza,
