This past June, I was privileged to be a part of a "Torchlight Training" and "Torchlight Tour" sponsored by The Sentinel Group. They produce the Transformation Videos. If you have not seen these, contact us at PTM, or you can order them through The Sentinel Group. This time in Brazil was literally life changing. In the next few blog entries, I want to share with you some of my observations, and experiences there in Brazil. God is mightily at work there, and it is another one of those places, like Fiji, that has become an example for us all of what God desires to do in our own cities.
I was in Brazil from June 1-18. The "Torchlight Training" was nine days of training in a beautiful resort with transformation leaders from around the world, Fiji, Uganda, Columbia, and Brazil. In later blogs, I will share some of this teaching. It was powerful and engaging. After the training, a small team of about 12 began the "Torchlight Tour." We traveled to about five different communities where we were able to meet with the people engaged in the transformation of their communities and be in the midst of what God was doing. I will share these stories in later posts.
What I came away with from this time in Brazil was that God desires to be present in the midst of His people. Three words came together for me on this trip; Presence, Place, and People. Where God's presence is manifest, and experiential, it is in a place that has been prepared for His Presence, and it is among a people who have prepared themselves for His presence. When these three come together, transformation is the result. I'll tell some of thes stories starting with my next posting.
