The difference between addition and multiplication.
Ben and I love to teach the bible. BUT we are only two people. That is why we love Titus Project. Because then we get to train more people to do what we do and it makes more of a difference. Today we sent out 4 people to go teach all over Taiwan and 5 people to go to the big country just North of us. Sometimes we forget how important it is for us to work with Titus, because we don’t always see the long term results. But let me contrast two different scenarios.
1) A few years ago Ben and I went and taught in the Philippines. We taught for a week in a bible college. We still keep in touch with the pastor but we have never been able to go back.
2) Around the same time as the Philippines we went to Indonesia with a Titus team. We were able to work with a few churches. The next year we took another Titus team back there and because of the relationships we built the last time we were able to run a short bible school with pastors and leaders. Now two of the members who were on that Titus team are thinking about taking another team back there next year to keep working with the same people!!
Moral of the story: working in teams and multiplying yourself is much more effective then just doing it on your own!
We are leaving in three days to come home to Winnipeg Canada! Looking forward to seeing many of you soon!
