Hey everybody! This week we’re going to try something new. Back in episodes 35 and 36, we went behind the scenes with Jonathon and Sara Griffiths as they were getting ready to announce their deployment to London as FMI missionaries. Today’s episode is an interview I did with their parents shortly after the announcement. It’s a great peak inside the sacrifices we make when we respond to the Mission of God.

Hey everybody! This week I’m interviewing my good friend Jeffry Forbes. I met Jeffry a few years back in Romania. He and his wife have been going there for about 15 years. They have a love for the people of Romania and continue to travel there. Not only are they involved in Romania, but they have ministry called South Side of Heaven in La Grande, Oregon. La Grande is a small town of about 12,000 people. There is a lot of drug addiction in the community and God is using South Side to bring recovery to those stuck in addiction. Ministering in a small town creates some unique challenges, but reaching people is not impossible if God has assigned you there.
If you’d like to get in contact with Jeffry, you can email him at jeffry@lg4square.com

Hey Everybody! This week we go to La Habra, California in the greater Los Angeles Area. I am at The Warehouse Church with Pastor Kurt and Robin Fuller. Kurt used to work with FMI and I’ve known them for several years. They are doing a great job there with their church and they love their people. This is a message I preached about pursuing the mission of God. It has autobiographical content in the beginning, theology in the middle and some application towards the end. I hope you enjoy it.

Hey everybody! This week’s episode we are continuing our journey with Jonathan and Sarah. If you missed last week’s episode, go back and take a listen! Last week when I interviewed them they had not yet announced to their church or their family that they would be relocating to London, England to plant a church. This week, you’re getting front row seats on how their announcement went. You’ll also get a more in-depth look at how God worked in their hearts and in their lives to get them to this point. It’s an awesome testimony of how faithful God truly is.
If you want to connect with Jonathan and Sarah and keep up with them on this journey, check out their website or follow them on Twitter.

God is a spiritual cyclone. The way you know he’s pulling you in is that you feel yourself being hurled back out. Going into that cyclone often feels destructive. But that’s only God breaking open the shell of your “seed.” Though painful, it’s a good pain, because out of it comes gospel life. – J.D. Greear, Gaining by Losing
On today’s episode, we dive in to one couple’s journey of going “all in” and responding to God’s call. God T-boned them by calling them out of a fruitful ministry in Nampa, Idaho asking them to move to London to become missionaries. When this interview was recorded, they had not yet gone public with their resignation as pastors, nor did their kids know about it. I’m giving you a sneak peek behind the scenes. You’ll hear about the struggles and heartbreak that go along with responding to the call to become missionaries, as well as see how God is preparing and comforting them in this time. Next week, they’ll be back to walk us through what it was like going public. Make sure and subscribe in iTunes or Stitcher so you don’t miss it.
