Our Japanese pastor frequently visits the tea house churches in China and he said the Bibles are there, and the will is there, they just need preachers.

I’m surprised they aren’t giving Cuba a more rousing welcome.

Costas just said 204 nations?

Just a few years ago, it was something like 114.

Are they splitting up?

It was somewhat tongue in cheek, lighten up. I didn’t get an LOL, so I moved on.

There is no comparison (IMO, of course).

they just need preachers.

My church is in the process of training 15 ministers in China. Much needed.

Yes, the guy who left work sent a few e-mails back after he first left and said something similar. They have to have prayer meetings in small groups so they don’t really draw attention. But they were having the max # show up week after week.

Could Bob Costas ever aspire to be so pathetic a bootlicking sycophantic sellout?

I submit the answer is no.

Thanks so much!

I was in my car traveling home and arrived to watch the Tai Chi event and all that followed.

I was in Beijing in October, 2007...just a tourist. The people were so very warm...embracing us (literally).

The “bird’s nest,” where all this is taking place, was in the process of being built. It’s fun to see it completed and to watch these spectacular opening ceremonies.

Thanks again for the link!

At least the libs are catching on. Christian conservatives have been on top of the Sudan issue since the early 90s.
