TMAI Symposium

Yesterday and today, I attended The Master's Academy International Symposium in Los Angeles. With me were five other Kiwis: Russell Hohneck (TSBC, Principal), Greg Stephenson (TSBC, Director of Programme Development), Lawrence Pickering (TSBC, Board Advisor), Jeremy Rolston (TSBC, Student), and Bryan Martin (River City Bible Church, Pastor).

What a joy to network with 85 leaders and educators involved in the training and equipping of Christians worldwide. Sessions focused on the subject of raising support.

The Shepherds' Conference begins tomorrow!
