Join the Ranks of the TEN3 Centurions One of the New Testament heroes of faith is a Roman military officer, the commander of a troop of about 100 men stationed in the small town of Capernaum. The scriptures do not name him, but simply call him the centurion. In Luke 7:1-10 we find the story of this man of whom the scriptures say, "when Jesus heard this, He was amazed at him." Although he was a gentile, the centurion had gained the respect of the Jewish leaders. Unlike most Romans who hated their assignment in Palestine, the centurion had grown to love Israel and had shown great interest in God's work by giving financially to build the local synagogue. He had a deep concern for his servant who was sick and about to die, and he recognized that Jesus was the only one who could heal him, so he sent the Jewish leaders to ask for Jesus to come. He could have gone himself, but he was a humble man who did not consider himself worthy of going to Jesus. What Jesus found amazing about the centurion's faith was his remarkable insight into the meaning of authority and his ability to recognize the truly unbounded authority of Jesus Christ. As we start the Transformational Education Network (TEN3) to respond to the requests for help from African churches wanting godly higher education for their children, and to reach the unreached with the gospel, we are asking the Lord for partners in ministry who are like the centurion. We are asking the Lord for men and women of centurion-like faith:
