Lots of happenings

So I have not posted for 2 weeks I am very sorry baout that I have been busy and we have had a few internet problems along with homework to hand in, yes we have homework. So much for escaping school but never mind.

Anyway the last 2 weeks of teaching have been on SPiritual Giftings and callings which was very cool with a guy called Yan Nicholls a very passionate man of God and quite amazing to soak up what he has to offer. So that week we talked a lot about the 5 fold ministry and we did a lot of discussing on what each one of these really means and then we were left to think about where God has placed us. We also learnt about the giftings God has given us to go with these callings in order to make us who we are - very exciting stuff. We also had a time of prophecying over each other and that is always a lot of fun and encouraging.

This week we have been learning about the importance of communication and discipleship it has been a very fun week  but also very challenging as we looked at a lot of habits in our lives which when representing the gospel put people off. We also looked at what it means to be a disciple of Christ and to be a discipler. A very practical week so a lot of fun.

This week myself and another SOE guy called Ezra had the opportunity to lead some evangelism in the streets this week with the the SOE. What was really cool about this was that a group of DTS students joined us. The aim of the eveangelism was for people to experience God. This is one of the stories a DTS student had to say.

Rebekka: During her treasure hunt God told her about a man and a woman one of them had a bad knee and the other had a bad lower back. Her and her partner in the treasure hunt went to find them which they did and they got talking and eventually got to share about what God had told heard her. So they prayed the one with the bad knee said after they prayed it no longer hurt but wouldn't know for sure until they properly tested it out, but the one with the bad back instantly described her back feeling completely better after being prayed for. What else was amazing was that as she was praying she felt heat go from her hands and her hands started to tingle.

How incredible is that, that God is doing such incredible things. What i really enjoyed about this was the opportunity to lead others into a form of evangelism that I felt inspred to do and then hear about the fruits being bore.
 
In other news though I go to Newcastle for a week to lead the evangelism for all the DTS who will gather there. I will be doing that with the rest of the SOE. 

That is a quick summary. A lot has been going on but I am having still a lot of fun with God.
