West Africa Theological Seminary
Ipaja, Lagos, Nigeria
Thursday March 20, 2014

Picture
As you read this I am in Lagos, Nigeria. Actually, Ipaja - a suburb - where West Africa Theological Seminary is located. Several of you have been there. This makes my 15th trip in the last 4+ years. It is always a reminder to me that God is at work everywhere !  He is certainly at work at WATS.

I am here to work with the staff in the Library, the Administration, and the Faculty on three projects. I will also be meeting with the students in the Masters in Intercultural Studies program focused on Muslim Evangelization.

Over the next three 'postings' I hope to bring you some pictures and stories of what God is doing here. I appreciate your prayers for myself, but even more for all of these dear people who have and are sacrificing so much to answer the call of God.

A friend of mine once told me the difference between a seminary in the US and a seminary in AFRICA is as follows:

In the US  - You get your learnin' - then you get your burnin'. 

In AFRICA - You get your burnin' - then you get your learnin'. 

I hope to tell you some stories of 'the burnin' that is taking place within the lives of these 
God's called servants   - Stay tuned !!
