Christopher Alam

What a delight it has been to have Christopher Alam with us. Christopher is a Rhema graduate and a former Muslem who was converted to Christianity. He is currently a missionary that reaches into Africa and Burma with some other nations sprinkled in. He is quite the missionary.

In his most recent crusade in Zimbabwe over 250,000 decisions for Jesus were made as the gospel was preached by Christopher and his team. The one thing I have noticed is that he gives credit to his team that is on the ground in Africa. They usually get started three to four weeks before the crusade to get things in order. When they do their jobs, then the crusade goes orderly and God is able to show up and make a difference in people's lives. It is not a one man show but a team of individuals who have dedicated themselves to the Lord and to each other so that the gospel can be preached in power. It is amazing and great things are happening. God's power is in manifestation. How do we know this? By the testimonies we are hearing and seeing. You can check these out on YouTube by typing in Christopher Alam.

What I am trying to get across is that we can accomplish so much more when we work together to promote the Kingdom of God. No one person can accomplish what a dedicated team of people can do, working together with the same vision. It becomes a God thing.

We also have had some great results so far in 2010. Team Trinity has done a great job of working together in the harvest here in the Upper Cumberland. But let's not be be content with what we have done, but let's look forward to what we can do if we continue to not be consumed with who gets the credit. It's a team effort, and it brings glory to God. It is Eph 4:16 in action.

I love you and your teaching PM but this was amazing. The whole concept of the true meaning of a covenant has blown my mind !!!! Then communion was pure icing on the cake............
