Logan Leadership

On one of Paul’s missionary journeys we was heading into the province of Asia, fully intending to preach the gospel there and plant churches as he had done in other places—a fine goal. But an odd thing happened at the border of Mysia: “They tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not allow them to. So they passed by Mysia and went down to Troas” (Acts 16:7-8) That night Paul had a vision of a man of Macedonia, standing and begging him, “Come over to Macedonia and help us” (v. 9). “After Paul had seen the vision, we got ready at once to leave for Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them” (v. 10).

It was great to reconnect with my friend Neil Cole at a conference we were both speaking at.  Neil and I have partnered together on various projects in the past, and it’s exciting to see how God is continuing to work through his ministry.  He has kept his focus on this grassroots, bottom up type of leadership development, and that’s always been one of Neil’s great strengths:  staying faithful and focused, keeping the main thing the main thing.
