Disclaimer: For any would-be missionary church planters, this story is descriptive and not prescriptive. This was a risky move that I can't recommend, though I will defend the principle behind it. If you're listening to find fault in my tactics out here, look no further. You've arrived at the correct episode.

I've endeavored to not over-edit what I share, neither the stories that one could call victories, nor the stories that reveal my lapses in wisdom and/or caution. And while this one ended well, it was perhaps only so by God's mercy.
