Preaching at Ken's church: Kibera slums, Nairobi

Ken Onywoki is the Romans Project National Director for Kenya. He is a hard worker for the Romans Project and compassionate pastor at his church in the Kibera slums. God has used Ken and his regional coordinators to expose several thousand pastors and church workers to the Romans Project this year - many of those being in western Kenya. During our May trip Ken took Rick Calenberg, Matt Miranda, and me (see past posts) to that region where we had a day seminar for over 1,000 church leaders. It was the first time I ever taught the Bible under an enormous avocado tree. Well tomorrow there will be no avocado tree in Kibera that I remember, but there should be a church filled with hungry people for God's Word. I plan to preach from John 2:1-11, the wedding at Cana and Jesus' first sign - turning water into wine.

PLEASE PRAY that God would enable me to preach in a clear, straightforward manner that exalts Christ as our Bridegroom and his work on the cross as the perfect provision for the cleansing of His Bride, the Church.
