7 Lessons from Christians in South Asia

Over these past few months of getting to know the pastor of this South Asian church, coaching him in his life and ministry, and teaching his congregation about discipleship and leadership, I have learned a lot about what believers deal with outside of the “Bible Belt” in America.

But most importantly, I have been inspired by their faith, commitment, and energy under the type of pressure that I may never be able to empathize with.

This pastor and his church have focused my mind a little more on the things that matter and have given me a bolder faith.

It makes me think of what Paul wrote to the believers he ministered to Rome: “I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world” (Romans 1:8, ESV).
