From Kenya

Mr.  Moses  Kibe  began listening to  Family Bible Hour five years ago.  He never fails to listen to the program week after week.  He likes the program because of the simple English that he understands quite easily.  He  also likes  the program  because  what he  considers  to  be a careful  choice  of  topics.  (From a TWR Africa report.)

This week I found myself in a discussion with a young Christian who expressed some unhappiness with what he saw as real weaknesses in the way churches and ministries relate to each other, particularly as they tend to protect their turf instead of working together for the glory of God.  I had to admit that the specific examples he chose were valid, though his inexperience regarding legal and spiritual responsibility were evident.

Yet, the conversation got me thinking about the best way to encourage him, next time we talked.  What could I do to increase unity in the body of Christ while working within the limitations imposed by corporation documents, by-laws, and mission statements, not to mention the law of the land?  

When we talked a couple of days later, I reminded him that before Jesus came into the world, things were not as they should have been.  After His life and ministry and return to Glory, things on earth were still not the way they should be, but they were better.  Something was started.  There was hope.  Before Paul's ministry, things were not the way they should have been.  After his martyrdom, they were still not the way they should be, but they were better.  The Church was growing.  A significant part of the New Testament was in circulation.  

When we came into the world, things were still not as they should have been.  Too many people follow other gods.  Too many Christians are weak and fearful.  The Church suffers from worldly priorities and disunity.  Even after we spend our lives devoted to serving God, things still won't be perfect, but hopefully they will be better.  The church will be stronger.  People will have come to know Christ.  Believers whose lives we've touched will be walking closer to the Lord and having a more profound impact among their friends.  

I suspect there is not much more we can expect to accomplish.
