missio

A common theme throughout Scripture is God’s dealing with obstacles. In Exodus, we have the story of the parting of the Red Sea. In Joshua, a flooded Jordan is parted again. Throughout the story of the Kings we see both monarchs and prophets benefiting from the removal of obstacles (Goliath and the prophets of Baal immediately come to mind). Once we enter the New Testament, the ultimate obstacle is removed: the wrath of God towards us as sinners.

So why am I so worried about how young I am, if people will come, are we doing the right thing, and will people come to know Christ?

They are simply more obstacles for God to move, and therefore to display his glory.
