The book of Ephesians was the perfect choice for our studies in the Word. (John Quam, MAC Nat'l. Facilitator: Global Ministries/Connections & The Joshua Project)--PRAISE GOD that the Cape Town 2010 Conference demonstrated so well the progress of the Gospel since the global congress held in South Africa in 1910. 198 countries represented with the majority from what were receivingcountries at that time or completely unengaged. Today most of these are also sending countries to the rest of the world.
