Tweeting the first three days of MTC:
Our 2nd Ministry Training Course is happening. Wonderful testimonies from our apprentices. Great time of Expositions from Acts #MTC2
WhyPreachActs: to persuade us that what the world desperately needs is the gospel & that this gospel is not only the way in but also the way on
Danger for university graduates: head replaces heart. Aim of MTC: a vision of Jesus that moves heart, head & hands
Acts = History, Defence, Guide, Picture of triumph through persecution
Pastor = Servant, Steward, Scum, Father (John Stott on 1 Cor 4)

Please keep praying for us that we would see more and more the glory of the gospel of God and have our hearts, minds and strength captured by that vision.
