Paul: As a former IVCF staff, Urbana's greatest payoff is now 13 years later. A fellow church elder questioned our sending so much money overseas, and I spoke of God' global love, and our poverty without it. I was then voted as the new missions committee chairman. Now, to help show my church the Incarnational Missionary methods of God (Stott, 1976) electrifies me--and sent me to the IV website for some quick review! I weep to read the words of Helen Roseveare. Ajith Fernando's exposition of Jonah is fresh 18 years later. Thank you, Lord, for the Urbana conventions.
