God truly has answered your prayers! We've just arrived back from the national staff conference we've hosted in San Antonio from Nov 7-13. 75 staff who are working in our Church Movements team in 44 cities came together and spent 4 days together. The theme of the conference was "Into the Gap" - how can we move into the missional gap of America and help fulfill the great commission motivated by the great commandment.

The feedback from our staff was overwhelmingly positive. Here are a few comments from the conference evaluation:

"It was the most moving and powerful CCC/Cru Conference I have ever attended. I consider it a privilege to be a part of Church Movements under your leadership."

"The devotionals were incredible. I cried!"

"The devo's by Henry, Dave and Gabor were the best thing all week. It was sooo great hearing their hearts, and how God has worked in their lives in challenging and difficult circumstances. I loved how they all used the Word to encourage us."
"The best conference so far."

How will your story end?

We wanted to share one moment of the conference with you through the personal story and devotional Gabor shared at the conference. Some encouraged us to share the video recordings of Gabor's devotional by writing this:

"Gabor, you have to have your Bible teaching from Thursday morning a stand-a-lone YouTube video. Where others outside our ministry can watch this. It was excellent!! Thank you for sharing your heart / life, and you desire and passion for the lost!"

Through our personal story we would like to encourage people to focus on the power on the gospel which can heal our wounds, restore our lives and society. The end of our story is not determined by the evil, abusive environments we live in. It is greatly depend on our reaction to the gospel.

By clicking on the video above, you can watch that devotional - we hope this will be an encouragement to you as well.
