A church that is not impacting a neighborhood will become irrelevant

Bob Moffitt interviews Pastor Wale Adefarasin from Nigeria, who shares many stories about how his church, in a relatively affluent neighborhood, chose to go into another neighborhood with 5 teams to meet the needs of the people, so that they could experience the love of Jesus. In one example, a local high school had just 2 toilets for 2,000 people and 10 staff, and the church built a block of toilets and replaced roofs. As they started meeting medical needs, “We got bills way beyond what we could afford. We go in with 5 loaves and 2 fish and see what we can do”, Pastor Adefarasin explains.  God took care of that. This local church has been doing this for 15 years now.
