Went to Singapore in search of funds and found friends instead!

So sitting on my plane at the beginning of my 11 hour flight back to New Zealand.

What a God orchestrated 4 days.  There is no other way to describe it.

I came looking for funding for the “Inheritance” movie project and came away with friends.  I discovered a brotherhood and networking group of passionate Christen business people that sometimes left me speechless. I can honestly say I was humbled by the passion for God and the commitment to taking the gospel to the marketplace that these wonderful Singaporean friends displayed.

They were eager to listen to our story, free with encouragement and ready to spread the word to others that may have a passion for what we are doing.

No we did not (at time of writing) come back with a cheque for the film but in all reality it would have been a miracle if we had.  And I feel that God was doing something deeper, something with a wider and longer term focus than what we originally went to Singapore for.

I went to Singapore full of faith for the film and return even more encouraged for a bigger working of God.  I have ideas for other projects.  I have seen a concept that truly inspires me in a way that could change our nation for the better.  And I’ve had offers of potential financial support for “I’m a WorldChanger” outside the contributions that I’m sure we will receive for the film.

Jonathan is staying on for a few days more as more opportunities have opened to meet new connections and go deeper into relationship with others.  God seems to be quickening this process of building trust.  He will be visiting Trinity Church on Sunday, the church that Steven Song came from. Steven provided the inspiration and connections to go to Singapore when, after reading the script, he felt every Singaporean father needed to see this movie.  This is a universal story cutting across many nations.

I had the pleasure of meeting Pastor Danny today before I left.  He is the Executive Pastor there.  They are doing so many great things in Singapore and into the nations and yet still gave us the time and encouragement of listening to our story.

God is good and when His people reflect that then building His Kingdom is such a pleasure.  I have enjoyed this trip.

Thanks to Jonathan and Nick from Creation Films for trusting me with part of this process.  It was a privilege and an honour to co-labour in Singapore with you.
