Every crisis is a time of dangers and opportunities. Takeshi Takazawa is VP for Strategic Engagement for Asian Access. He is a gifted leader who has served our movement since 1988. Among his many strengths, he sees things well before others see them and he helps us understand deep things. The A2 Community all across Asia dearly loves Takeshi. In this clip, Takeshi shares about the two Chinese characters for "crisis" which are made up of "danger" and "opportunity". This topic has been referenced quite a bit recently because of COVID-19. "You've probably heard this," Takazawa starts out. But this clip is not about Coronavirus. Instead, Takeshi is applying this concept following Japan's Triple Disaster of 2011. I interviewed Takeshi here in 2016, and five years after the disaster, Japan was still very much in the recovery and rebuilding phase. And looking back now, we can see the tremendous evangelism and church planting opportunities seized by the Church in Japan. And this perspective should encourage you when crisis strikes.
