Church planting

Church planting
This morning we have again had a very good prayer gathering at our church building Bergen. It is so good to come together with these devoted church-planters and leaders among the people of God.
At our breakfast, which my dear wife had prepared, we were talking about some of the challenges we are facing in our work to reach the present generation with the gospel of the Kingdom. The same thing we did in the weekend when we were together with the 70 young leaders. I am so excited by this desire to reach out to others with the good news of the Kingdom of God.
Obviously we are living in a time when the covenant community is branching out. We see new sprouts, signs of new life, creative initiatives, everywhere in these exciting days in which we live. God is so good! He has not given up on the new generation and he has not given up on society! On the contrary, he is actively involved in changing the new generation and the society in which we live! I am so grateful to the Lord that I have a role to play, a work to do, a service to give, a contribution to bring, in this process of changing the world and bringing everything in submission to Jesus Christ!
Here in Bergen we have already seen some good results of the three church-planting we did last year and several new young people have dedicated themself to plant new churches in new areas of our city. These emergent churches are a real sign of new hope for Christianity in Norway!
God is good!
