The feeling as the plane lifts off and I watch Nigeria disappear behind the clouds... hard to explain.
It's like collapsing on the locker room floor after a winning shot that saved the season … the team jumping together, the crowd delirious and now later we lay on the floor and think, “Did this really happen?!”
This week in Nigeria has been powerful. For many men, life changing.
We have begun to build strong relationships with key men from across Nigeria. Not average men. These leaders are building significant churches, community outreaches, schools, medical centers, businesses, and raising up successful entrepreneurs. Remarkable men. Passionate about reaching their nation for Christ.
They are men of hope even as they grapple with a homeland filled with massive cultural issues, terrorism, poverty, fatherlessness. Yet, this new generation of strong, godly leaders are building, building, building...
Hundreds of thousands are coming to Christ. They needed ministry to men. They asked us for it. CMN brought it.
Just stunning. Jesus, the grace of God, the effort of so many men working as a team together. You prayed, gave, supported it.
I cannot tell you how deeply I appreciate you and the whole brotherhood that God has brought together. Men prayed and donated funds from Europe, Asia, North and South America, Australia...
I thank you. The men of Nigeria thank you. God knows your heart is in this. Grateful.
