As we wrap up almost two years in Chile and head back to the States for a short while, we want to pause and remember how faithful God has been to us during this time, particularly with our language learning. We often feel discouraged about our (in)ability to speak and understand Spanish, but when we look back we have to admit we’ve made a lot of progress. And when we take into account that Dave’s first sermon in Spanish was Good Friday of this year (with him reading it), and that since then he’s been able to teach a weekly Gospel Transformation class to a small group of pastors and elders, plus a Sunday School class, as well as a whole weekend at a youth conference, we have to give thanks to God. Dave thoroughly enjoys teaching in small group settings and is passionate about the power of God to transform lives. The positive response encourages us to press on in our struggle with the language and gives us reason to return after our visit to the States.
