Over the last month I have been moved more and more by the people and children of Africa. Movies like War Dance and photos like this stirring new emotions in me. Lord, what are You up too!

Zach – I look forward to your thoughts after you watch it!
My daughter spent three weeks in S. Africa last summer.
She said she witnessed so many miracles because FAITH is all the people have…nothing else.
She just came back from N. Ireland and she was shocked by what she saw.
A total LACK OF JESUS..and a religion that dictates who you are friends with and where you live…nothing else….
There is so much work to be done….. I pray a revival in God’s people to become His workers and that they would have a driving passion like the heart of Jesus…nothing else…
I read your post and then this article in Time right after it, and thought it was very interesting:

It has a great link to an organization that matches volunteers with projects in different parts of the world.
We were in South Africa this past June when we adopted our daughter Esther. There really truly is something about Africa.
I also watched “War Dance” recently (on your wife’s recommendation!), as well as “The Gods Grew Tired of Us” (about Sudan). Other great documentaries are “Angels in the Dust” and “We are Together”, both about South Africa.
Keep us posted on what God is doing in your heart about Africa!
Africa needs you here! The Herzbergs need you here! (Although, I’m sure America needs you guys also). Come on over, the weather is fine!
you never know, jason…. =}
i wish you and your family were coming to ethiopia this summer–next time?
Just kinda standin’ by waiting and watching God work in your fam. 🙂 Can’t wait to hear what He does next.
Africa has a way of doing that.
We say in our family, “We didn’t see Africa coming.”
Blessings on your journey….
