Praying and working towards an indigenous, Presbyterian, grace-based, gospel-driven church planting movement that overflows to impact all of Japan and the world. The Land of the Rising Sun desperately needs The Risen Son! Rich Japan looks good on the surface. It is the world's number two economy after the U.S., very few poor people, and low unemployment. There is healthcare for everyone, the longest life expectancy in the world, and virtual 100% literacy. Violent crime is very low, everything works, and service is great. Wow! The Japanese must be really happy. Wrong! I said above that violence is low, but that is only true if you do not include violence to oneself. Japan has the highest suicide rate in the industrialized world. More than a million young people are so traumatized by the pressure of the society, or something, that they refuse to even leave their homes. “Zero-defect” thinking and pursuit of perfection may be great for building cars, but it is terrible for families and human relationships. Beneath the surface, Japan is hurting deeply. Japan’s greatest need is the gospel of of Jesus Christ. That’s why we are here. We love God because He first loved us. We long for Him to be worshiped in this great nation where so few worship Him. We love the Japanese people, and want to tell them the good news of Jesus. So few have ever even heard. Our MTW Japan goal is huge, seemingly impossible. We have all covenanted together to pray and work towards a Biblical church planting movement that is ultimately indigenous, spreading throughout Japan and through Japan to Asia and the world. Our church planting teams and our CBI seminary team are all pursuing this same ultimate goal. Please read through our website prayerfully. Read the links to the various MTW Japan teams. Maybe God would have you partner with us in some way to reach this needy land. The Land of the Rising Sun desperately needs The Risen Son! |
