Dying to Live

I was away on a trout estate just outside Dullstroom this weekend while the Mighty Men's Conference was held. It was Carol's birthday and I had to spend the weekend with family. I could not have chosen such a tranquil place.

I just got back and the reports that I am hearing from the Mighty Men's Conference is mind blowing. This event started in 5 years ago with only 200 men by Angus Buchan. Last year 7000 men had a life changing experience at Angus' farm "Shalom" just outside Greytown. They planned for 20,000 men for this year and over 30,000 men registered for the weekend. Diving back to Johannesburg I saw the front page of an Afrikaans newspaper and it reported 60,000 had arrived at the farm on Friday.

60,000 - Wow! The Spirit of God must have been moving.

I will give more feedback when I get a change to speak with some of the men. While the "Mighty Men" where in Greytown, all their wives, fiancées and girlfriends were praying for them.
