Walking With Jesus: MANAGER RETREAT

MANAGER RETREAT

June 12-14
Retreat with 107 managers of a furniture factory.

Theme: Journey into Space.

We explored various paradigms of life and work as managers, from a Christian perspective. It was really fun to do a management retreat once again, and a great priviledge to work with this company, that is bold enough to proclaim that they are a Christian company in this Muslim nation.

AMBON FLO AUGUST

Ambon: City (and Island) in Maluku, Indonesia. Often used erroneously for the entire area of central Maluku. Maluku were actually the Spice Islands during the Dutch Colony era. Almost entirely Christian until the Transmigration programs of the ‘70's and ‘80's when huge numbers of muslims were relocated, ostensibly to take them out of overcrowded city areas and give them land, but many believe, and the effect was, that it diluted Christian populations. Today about 50% of each. Beautiful place of abundance.

RADICALS

COMPARISON: RADICAL MUSLIM vs RADICAL CHRISTIAN
Some thoughts:
GOALS:
Radical Muslim: All the world becomes Muslim
Christian: All the world becomes Christian
STRATEGY:
Muslim: Hate all non-Muslim to death
Christian: Love all non-Christian to life
TATICS:
Muslim: Offer self to die in killing non-Muslims
Christian: Offer self to die to give life to non-Christians
Muslim: Kill self in process of killing others
Christian: Die to self in serving others
RADICAL CHRISTIAN: ONE WHO REALLY BELIEVES AND FOLLOWS THE TEACHING OF JESUS (Turn the other cheek, bless your enemies, give out of your need, not your abundance, don't worry about anything, etc)
