A Vision of the Kingdom of God

Here in Cambodia we talk about transformational development. We have a vision of a Cambodia where all kids can have good nutrition and grow strong. That all kids can have education and all adults can access good health care. A vision of reconciled enemies, of good parenting and peaceful communities. Where the majority poor can have access to some of the resources of the minority rich. Where people are paid a fair wage and their rights are protected. A place where people have secure tenure of their land free from the threat of eviction. I want to see people coming into a transforming relationship with God and embarking on a life of discipleship following Jesus.

This is a vision of the Kingdom of God for this place and God is at work here transforming evil into good, enmity to friendship, poverty to sustainable lives, and brokenness to fullness in Jesus. God's at work here and it’s exciting to be a part of it.
