Church Planting in Germany

As you may know we live in Germany. We have grown to love this place. Our life here is different than the life we had in Spain. My wife teaches in a high school. I travel a lot it seems with my work but I am able to have have some incredible opportunities to pour into the life of other workers. I also have the privilege of helping churches in the states in connecting with these people.

A couple of weeks ago I was able to go teach on the book of Acts at the Bible Seminary of Bonn. I always enjoy my time there. The students have such a great passion for the Lord and to serve Him.

This week I want to introduce you to a friend of mine here in Germany. Mark Wagner National training strategist for the IMB in Germany Austria and Switzerland. I have known Mark for almost 8 years now. We have worked together at various levels. Mark would be very interested in connecting with some churches that would commit to a partnership here in Germany. You can contact him at wmwagner125@aol.com.

I hope you will take 3 minutes to look at this video that I put together of my time at the seminary. (I need to give a disclaimer that I am not the best videographer and editor but I am giving it a shot.)

You will also meet on this short video Andy Wiebke who works at the seminary. I hope if you are a pastor reading this blog or watching this video that you would consider contacting me about this idea. He would love to see some pastors and church planters that would mentor / coach a student.
