My generation

I was born on 1984. Little before the babyboomers. But still to the generation that doesnt remember nation with red flags. I belong to the generation that is still trying to find a way out, find a true freedom.

But now it becomes interesting...

We are living in the most pagan country in a world. Can u believe it? And in a same time, this year all 348 churches of Estonia have decided to go out with gospel of Christ. Even biggest evangelist Franklin Graham is coming to town, to preach the Hope.

But...

Viktor Hamm, person who has worked 8 years to get Graham to Estonia, has said that he hasnt seen such a nation before... nation where youth are such passive! BGEA has 60 years of experience, has probably started more Christian movements than any other organization... They have found our little Estonia with a problem.

What is the problem with Estonians?

"Our problem is that we want someone else to solve our problems," said Harri Tali, man who is trying hard to lead the union-work in Estonia. "It is similar with a trolley-bus. We want to have a ride, but not to buy a ticket for that. And then we wine and critisize if we have a bad trolley-ride."

Me and my family are ready to buy the ticket.

Headhurt is good

This weekend we had the biggest training "Burning Bulb" for young leaders there has been probably ever before here in Estonia. Little less than 100 most passionate Christ-followers drove for 3-day long time central city of Estonia, paying money for that.

I definitely was tired from the beginning. I really did not know how it will go. Lot of power-struggles in my head. Because we did it together with baptist-pentecostal-lutheran-methodist-adventist leaders training even freechurch and word of life people.

But as it came out: God was really there. People really got led and equipped and not manipulated. And as GoingUP team (me, Innar, Chris) are having rest-days today and tomorrow, my head hurts.

Showing that I had been really caring for them. This is my job, feed the young sheep. From the country Estonia, most pagan place in the world...
