Most of the time when I hear the word faithful my mind doesn't usually go to people who have done much in accomplishing something; instead it goes to those who have been consistent. They were the people at work who did their job and got the gold watch for being at work for the past 30 years. I don't know what you imagine when you hear about someone being faithful but I would guess that you would have the same thought. But I want to introduce to you a different kind of faithful person who has been really close to the ministry here at the Our Generation Training Center now for the last two years. He is not only someone who has been consistent to show up, he is also someone who has been constant to produce results. He is a person that has steadfastly done the right kind of things and has seen blessing and fruit which has been attributed to his account. The person who I believe embodies the true meaning of the word faithful is Jeff Bush.
Jeff Bush studied at the OGTC and has learned what it means to be a missionary from the OGTC. Jeff studied back in the early 2000's in Arequipa, Peru under then-missionary Austin Gardner. He later moved to Arequipa for two years to learn the Spanish language and gan experience in the practical side of the ministry. While in Arequipa Jeff not only worked diligently but was also an effective witness seeing many young men saved and trained for the ministry. I have personally met some of these men and I can attest that they are good godly men. After his two year stay in Peru Jeff went to Argentina, and the Lord once again used Jeff's faithful service and blessed it immensely. During his ten years of serving in Argentina Jeff was used to start five different churches each currently pastored by an Argentine pastor. He started a Bible College where there are thirty-plus students training to be in the ministry and a radio station where Argentines are getting the gospel out to millions of people each day. Jeff has been faithful, and God has blessed that faithfulness.
Now Jeff lives in Atlanta, GA and serves faithfully as the Director of Vision Baptist Missions. He has recruited many families and young men to go out of Vision Baptist Missions. He serves the missionaries with the knowledge that he has accrued over the 12 years he spent on the foreign mission field and shares and helps the newer missionaries be faithful in the right kind of work. Jeff is also a teacher at the Our Generation Training Center and great one at that. He personally spends one on one time with the students to help train them to be the best prepared missionary. God has done a work through Jeff Bush and continues to do so. Jeff has been faithful.
So what is your story? Are you being faithful in getting out the gospel to the entire world Are you a faithful servant to the right kind of work? Do you know what the right kind of missions work is? Why don't you come by the Our Generation Training Center and see what I am talking about? Why not come and learn from a man like Jeff Bush?
