Recently returned from a trip to northeast Kenya and Nepal, Chad joined us for church this last Sunday (along with his wife and their three beautiful little girls). Chad is a part of e3SportReach
ministry. This ministry uses sports and compassion ministries to stimulate a hearing
for the gospel. They work with local organizations and churches so that they
can ‘make disciples’ not simply win converts. e3SportReach goes to some of the hardest and least reached places on the globe - just check out northeast Kenya and Nepal!
Think about it. These are places where the average person would never hear about Christ. And get this. They take
normal everyday believers from places like Colorado Springs, give them some gospel tools to use,
and turn them loose in these places around the world to share the life transforming news about Jesus Christ. You may be familiar with the
fact that Kenya has many Christians (according to ‘Operation
World’ a higher percentage of believers per general population than the U.S.). But the northeast corner of Kenya is
a bastion of Islam. Yet people there are open and responsive to the gospel of Jesus
Christ. With all the bad news in the
world this is good news that we need to hear!
We are proud to support Chad's ministry with our church dollars. Perhaps this year we can send a team with e3SportReach to participate in the global harvest. This is indeed the long arm of Aspen Ridge Church.
