This week Chris and I are in Nicaragua to help train and equip pastors at the Bible Institute. One goal of this trip is to learn how our church can partner with the Bible Institute in Nicaragua in order to make an impact for Christ in this area of the World.

We will be partnering with Jim Wilson and Fellowship Bible Church of Jacksonville, TX. Jim is in the process of relocating to Central America to be a career missionary to various people groups of Central and South America.

Jim has informed us that pastors in Nicaragua have access to very few if any Christian resources so we will spend the entire week providing resources and training that will help local pastors when preparing to preach the Word of God in their churches and to non-Christians in their communities. What excites us about the trip is the efficient plan of action. If we were to go and teach this material to 60-80 different churches it might take the same number of weeks to complete the training. Instead, we will train over 150 pastors and church leaders this week, who will then take these resources to their local churches so that their people will be equipped to grow in godliness.
