This Congress is really connecting to a deep desire among people to break out of our Christian ghettos and tribes and really reach the nations together. The people here are really keen to see this Congress not as an event but something that propels us into something together. People are asking each other what's next? What do you know that I need to know? Who do you know that I need to know? There has been a real give and take at the tables despite people coming from different cultural perspectives. That's nice to see.
