In Two Weeks…the Least of These

I’m sitting in the comfort of FBCG office gaining another “level” of understanding of what I will experience in less than two weeks. I am going to Kenya to film a documentary for Life in Abundance with a dear friend from FBCG. It is one of those things were I think I am prepared. But are you ever prepared for open heart surgery? The Kibera Slum hosts one million people in a very small region. And little will prepare me for that! Additionally, it is so fun to be preparing for this trip alongside of the 116 students preparing for their short term trips to Chicago, Mexico, and Ecuador. As well as during these weeks of One Meal One Day teaching and impact.

The term “Deep Justice” has made great impact in my life over the past 2-3 years and I can’t believe the role of Pastor of Family and Service is so God’s Call on my life during such a time as this. Please pray for me, our film crew that will tell the story of successful micro enterprise in Kibera in partnership with the local church, and for my family in my absence.

Finally I am so fortunate to have ministry partners and ministry leaders who can carry the load while I go under God’s knife and get refined by the Refiners Fire.

    Thanks Bruce for sharing this!
    I am praying for your whole team as well as the production of this film.

    I truly believe that the impact of this film will be phenomenal. It is not only about highlighting the harsh day to day reality of life in these slums, but also about the hope that these beautiful people have and the potential for transformation to take place.
    Thanks for sharing your heart. If anyone is looking for more info about the film check out the LIA blog at liaint.org/blog or check out our cause page on Facebook “Help Produce the Second LIA Documentary” in order to partner with us in this film!
