Introduction & Chapter 1

May 18, 2007 by Roger.

We live in a world that constantly presents new challenges as society perpetually
transitions from one global community to another. Societies change
when bombarded with new information. And we live in the information
century. No longer is the world citizen confined to ignorance. With the
click of a mouse on a computer, even the most remote villager is launched
into this new world order. The world has suddenly become a neighborhood
that transcends national borders. With these changing times, come tremendous
opportunities for those who can flow with the current of ever changing
civilizations. As disciples of Jesus, it is incumbent upon us to seek for new
and better opportunities to preach the gospel. Change, therefore, must not
be seen as the loss of something, but the emergence of new possibilities to
reach the souls of men. Because of our spirit of adventure for the future, we
do not wail over the past, but seek with vision ways to take the gospel into a
world that is destined to end. In our quest for opportunity, we are thus not
enslaved to relics of the past that have run their course. On the contrary, we
are excited about taking the fundamentals of the faith to a new world that
has presented to us new and exciting open doors for world evangelism. If
we would be productive servants of our Lord, therefore, we must continually
bring ourselves in tune with the changing world in which we live. Only
by doing this will we be able to produce the most fruit possible to the glory
of God.
