\"\"<\/a>Check out this (Dutch) videoclip<\/a> by Crossroads Rotterdam about Matthijs Vlaardingerbroek<\/a>’s ministry in Den Haag. (In his extremely down-to-earth and close-to-people mentality he probably would not use the word ‘ministry’ himself, but I guess it’s just the best way to describe it.) I think it is one of the best clips I’ve seen in terms of communicating a vision: so simple, so tangible, so authentic.<\/p>\n

It is fascinating to see how God is using so many different people with different giftings, focus, levels of influence, but all with a heart for the city. This videoclip is about The Vlaardingerbroeks reaching out to the poor and weak in their neighbourhood, but I know of many others with a vision for reaching leaders, or church people, or artists… And I strongly believe in the next few years we will see things coming together ‘for the glory of the Kingdom of God’. And I sure want to be there!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
