It is our eyes, our vision, that lets us see what is in front of us. In our lives, Ben and I try to keep our eyes on the present, while considering and planning for the future. In 2003 we went to South Africa and we saw the tremendous need in all of Africa for Christians to live out what the bible teaches. In the bible 1 John says that ‘we know that we are children of God if we obey His commandments’. God’s commandments improve life for all people: love God, love others, pray for your enemies, help the poor, don’t judge, forgive… But the sad thing in Africa is many people say they are Christians but live lives of corruption, hate, violence etc. So we had this ‘vision’ to go and disciple people by starting Titus Project in South Africa.
The great news is that Titus Project in South Africa started and is strong! They have awesome leaders and lots of staff. So now we are asking God, where else should we go start Titus Project? All of us in Titus Project (internationally) have a vision to have a Titus Project location on every continent by the year 2011. Right now the only two continents that don’t have Titus are Europe and South America. So right now we are praying about where to go. It doesn’t look like South Africa is going to be our next destination (although we love it there and may have to go back to visit one day!) If you pray for us, please talk to God about this. We are confident He has a plan and will lead us, we just need to be patient and keep listening. Meanwhile we are in Taiwan, loving it here and have a hard time even thinking about leaving… Okay, time to go change the ‘Vision’ part of this website.
