Speaking in Dillenburg

I'm having a wonderful time, with the lovely Robin, speaking at the Jesus Im Fokus conference at the Stadthalle in Dillenburg, Germany.


It is a conference of 500 dedicated children's and youth workers--some full-time, many part-time or volunteer--from churches throughout Germany. It is sponsored by Christliche Verlagsgesellschaft, the German publishing house of many of my books (that's me, below, receiving a brand new copy of the German version of my one-year book of family devotions, coauthored with Josh McDowell, from publisher Hartmut Jaeger).


I'm speaking four times this weekend on the conference theme, "Healing for Hurting Hearts," with the help of my new friend and translator, Berndt (that's him standing next to me in the photo below).


It's such a blessing to be in this place, among such people. We've been received so warmly and we hope and pray that our small contribution can somehow be accepted by God and transformed by him into something special.
