My financial partners know that I am involved with ministry and that I hang out with students at college. But sometimes I don't think they know much more than that. Once last year I was eating dinner with my cousin Troy (we are very close friends) and his wife. I was telling them about what I was up to and about a few things going on on campus. I was making sure that they had been getting my newsletters and asked them if they enjoyed them. Troy's wife said that they had but that she hadn't had much time to read them but she assured me that she loved the pictures. "Keep sending more pictures" she said. While I was talking, about some of the things included in my newsletter she stopped me and asked "what is it again that you do".
I want to make sure my partners know what is going on in my ministry and I want them to know what type of battle we are fighting on our campus. They need to know. I hope that they want to know but it seems that maybe the pictures are all that some of them care about and all that they need to be satisfied with how their money is being used for the Kingdom. When I go to my church at home, most people smile and say its good to see you but hardly any of them ask me what ministry is like on the Mizzou campus.
