WORK IS HONORABLE
For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ, and through him God reconciled everything to himself. He made peace with everything in heaven and on earth by means of Christ’s blood on the cross.

’’Colossians 1:19-20 (NLT)’’
And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him. For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.

Sacha inchi nut missional business, Thailand
Praise God for the sacha inchi project (agricultural missional business project) throughout Thailand, Cambodia, Myanmar, and [undisclosed country]. We have begun the growth of sacha inchi plants in eleven provinces. Progress is being made to register with agricultural departments in every province that we have farmers working.

The likelihood of churches becoming self-sustaining is quickly becoming a reality. Because of the sacha inchi project Christians are gaining credibility and influence in the local community, thereby enabling them to become community mobilizers instead a persecuted minority.

Gospel witness is now penetrating the ruling class. Before gospel witness stayed primarily among the lowest class or outclass. Those in the ruling class are also beginning to participate in the sacha inchi project alongside Christians. The gospel now flows into the ruling class from the common Christians and churches.
