Camp Hope Gathering

Once again I've returned from another evening at Camp Hope, encouraged by the support and concern of brothers and sisters from around the country. They are here to encourage us and to help us reach out into the community rebuilding homes and lives (we pray) with the power of the gospel. There were plenty of comments tonight about how the church is more than just bricks and mortar, bigger than just Gulfport; the church is the people of Christ from all over the world. We know that this is true. But when churches come here and work for us and with us, they show us that this really is true. The church is worldwide and extends far beyond the confines of Gulfport, or even south Mississippi, to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people. Amen to that. We have a BIG God and a BIG Savior with a BIG church.
