Christian Productions International: What's Going On? May 2015

Kenosis: Cumbre Internacional de las Iglesias de Cristo

International Summit of the Church of Christ

What I saw: Singing, Encouraging, Teaching, Praying and Sharing ideas about the challenges Youth Ministers face serving in Central America

Alejandro Ezquerra, Rex Morgan, Carlos Cabajal

Carlos Cabajal gathered ministers, college professors, youth ministers from 10 Latin-American countries, and singing groups in Tegucigalpa, Honduras for three days of revival. Topics from spiritual equiping, using technology in Ministry, to avoiding pornography and infidelity held the crowd's attention and convicted their hearts.

The focus? Kenosis, the 'self-emptying' of one's own will and becoming entirely receptive to God's divine will. The word ἐκένωσεν (ekénōsen) is used in Philippians 2:7, "[Jesus] made himself nothing ...

"I experience kenosis when I think of how much Christ did for me. His divine love excites me to back away from myself and learn from Christ's own example of giving it up, allowing God to use Him."

Many responded with renewed commitment and creative ideas for sharing Christ in their communities.

Our Journey: Let's all think about commiting ourselves to our own personal kenosis, sharing Christ in a purer state of mind and attitude. Jesus impacts those who empty themselves and are open to God's love and sacrifice. In this video listen to testimony why Jesus excites these individuals and makes a difference in their lives.

May God bless each of us on this journey.
