This got me so excited today as I looked through what God is doing around the world through the ministry of Cru. Such a humbling honor to be a part of this great organization that God is using. And even more humbling that Cru is only a small part of what God is doing in and through his people across this globe that he owns and reigns over! Come quickly Lord Jesus!

A simple question. And the most important question we can ask. Here is a link to my answer from our Christmas Eve service on Philippians 2:4-11. How can we know God?

The book of Esther is a remarkable story full of drama, depth, character development, plot, and a wonderful picture of God's sovereign rule over the earth. I recently had the privilege of preaching on Missions Sunday at our church and I looked at how Esther's picture of God's sovereignty fuels us into being used by God to complete the great commission. I have been processing and meditating on the ideas since and just keep thinking about Esther 4:14 when Esther is challenged that maybe she was raised up "for such a time as this" ("this" meaning an instrument in God's deliverance of his people). In what ways have we been raised up to be instruments of God's deliverance?

Cru's global missions team recently put together this video that captures well the vision for impacting the world with the message of Jesus through students. Sometimes I think to myself, why is it that reaching students is so critical? Why is it worth support raising and difficult secular campus cultures? Why is that we do what we do?

This video answers that so well for us.
