Missionary to Peru Robert Barriger asked us, "What's next?" in the service at Healing Place Church this morning.
I've known this missionary hero from his earliest days as a missionary. He went to Peru without support determined to answer the burning call in his heart. I watched as he held steady while Maoists rebels tried nine times to kill him.
I also watched as missions leaders uncomfortable with his zeal and growing success in the face of their declining ministries also tried to destroy him and make him leave Peru.
Now this man is having massive impact through his ministry Camino de Vida in Peru. Even the President and First Lady of Peru have personally asked him to manage a large share of the efforts for Peru to recover from the recent 8.2 earthquake that is compared to the tsunami and Hurricane Katrina.
Today he spoke about what is next in God's plans for us--and how we must be preparing for God's great move.
I don't think there has ever been a more appropriate and stirring missions message.
If you are considering a career in missions I urge you to study this man's life.
You can watch the message at HealingPlaceChurch.org.
