I was on a crusader camp last week, which was a joy to lead on and praise God for the great things he did. Our fireside topic was ‘the thing I’m most passionate about is…’. On Wednesday night we had a couple come and visit camp who are preparing to go to India to work at a Jesus Ashram. They have always loved hippies and travelers. They’ve spent the last few years going to festivals, meeting these people and loving them and seeking to share Jesus with them. They never thought they’d end up overseas but God does amazing things in life!
Their challenge to us was – what’s your passion and how can you use it to serve Jesus? They’re doing something that is unusual yet so simple. They love travelers so they’re going to a place where travelers are, who are seeking spiritual truth, and they’re going to tell them about Jesus.
I’m challenged to think about us in our city and what our passion is. How can we use that passion to serve Jesus and tell people about him? Is it coffee drinking, the live music scene, dance classes, sport… what is our passion and how can we use it for God’s kingdom?
