Jill had never seen a miracle through her own hands.
We took her out and God moved powerfully.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
How's that feeling bro?
God is so good!
She was more than a little excited.
Wow Lord! Yes Lord! Yes Lord!
I went around the corner to say goodbye to our new friends and God did something amazing.
What's going on here?
Radical Christianity is normal Christianity.
This is the normal Christian life.
This main street of Woodridge in Brisbane, Australia has been a thoroughfare for much violence and crime.
It has made the headlines many times.
Simmering tensions in Queensland's biggest melting pot community.
Are they about to boil over again?
This is a city where more ethnic groups come together than anywhere else in the state
and it means tolerances can be tested.
1 John 2:6 says: "Whoever claims to live in Him must live just as Jesus did."
What would it look like to see a move of people in this town living like Jesus?
When I went around that corner I began to see what it could look like.
What's going on here?
This is the cool thing - so we're out here with Jill,
and then, who should I walk across but Sili
who just got saved - two months ago? - Yeah two months ago.
And he's out here praying for people as well. God's just bringing people together.
Sili, being a local, is familiar with the violence in Woodridge,
but since becoming a Christian, Jesus is using him to bring life instead of death.
A couple of months ago Sili struck up a conversation with a man on a bridge who was planning to jump.
If it's not normal for a Christian to run after people needing prayer,
Sili hasn't received that memo yet.
Do you need your leg to be healed bro?
Yo, brother!
What happened to your hand bro?
He said, "Man it hurts really badly."
I said, "I believe Jesus can heal that."
Jesus just heal it right now.
How's that feel bro? Between 1 to 10, how bad is it?
Can I pray for it again? I believe Jesus can get rid of it.
Get rid of it? - Yeah bro.
So I'm praying over and over again.
100% Right now Father.
How's that feel?
Sili is being used to snatch people out of a life of violence,
but also to heal the results of violence, because Jesus comes to bring life.
I'm here to tell you that Jesus really loves you.
He is the true Healer. I'm just praying for it.
Just believe in God, bro.
And if meeting Sili wasn't enough, the very next moment
some men we know from Iran came around the corner.
Everyone's here, look at this!
In this one town there are 160 different nationalities,
and I believe God can reach them all.
You see, one year ago these men were Muslim, and so was my cameraman.
He got baptized. He was one of the first Muslims who got saved
and now he's on fire for God. Loves Jesus.
In Australia there has been much fear of Islamic radicals.
Many believe the cultural divide is just too large to cross with the Gospel.
But that was not the case a year ago, when I met these Iranians.
When I approached them, they spoke very little English.
We had them over for dinner and God began to restore one's eyesight.
Days later, all three gave their lives to Jesus.
We began a Bible Study and they couldn't help but tell their friends.
Although the journey has been dangerous with death threats and family rejection.
Many came to the true God.
Now here we are, over a year later, with some of those Iranians.
One of their friends doesn't know Jesus yet.
But because we've been discipling,
the Iranians naturally reach out and model what has been demonstrated.
Pray for his back.
What's he saying? How's it feel?
As I look around I see a glimpse of what could happen in any town,
even one with a history like Woodridge.
I see this town being transformed by a few willing vessels.
I see Sili - two months a believer.
And Jill, a believer since before Sili was born.
I see men who can hardly speak English,
but who have been reached with the love of Christ, and are reaching others.
Even my cameragirl puts away the camera to share the Gospel.
And as some of us leave to go home, we see Sili continuing to touch lives.
I stop the car to get one last shot.
Dude, what just happened to you?
It's just normal. - You're knee's gone back to normal.
As the church we are often praying for a move of God.
But a move of God is something we are not just to pray for, but to become.
Jesus said: "Go preach the Gospel to all Creation, and make disciples of nations."
What would it look like if we as the church would step out and obey Him?
thousands of people travel into the middle of nowhere to experience
everything this world has to offer
can God move in a place like this
thank you
