Some of the best times of my week are leading InReach groups. I might be struggling to stay awake, frustrated and annoyed by the trials of life and wondering how on earth I'll find the strength but getting together with Nigerian Christians earnestly seeking new insights from God is always uplifting and encouraging. From the remarks made at the end of the sessions, most of the participants benefit too.
Some comments from groups at TCNN included (my paraphrasing): Christianity is not just all about the church (a
particular denomination); it's good to be with Christians from
different backgrounds, now I don't feel I have to straightaway attack
people who think differently from me; everyone wants love, after going
through Inreach I know I should show love to everyone; I've learned how
to lead discussion groups (an unexpected benefit).
Every group which goes through Inreach
experiences the awesomeness of God's love, each individual is challenged and changed; it's beautiful to see. www.inreachministry.wix.com/inreach
Another beautiful thing, though in a completely different league from the InReach experience, is Ruth's cat Simba. It's a good job I looked before turning on the taps!
