It was a true honor to sit down with Omar Garcia. Omar has served as Missions Pastor at Kingsland Baptist Church in Katy since 2005. Over the past 16 years, he has led Kingsland's missions ministry to adopt 18 unreached people groups, establish partnerships with more than 40 local ministries, and mobilizes more than 3,000 volunteers annually. When he is not traveling the world, he enjoys ultramarathon canoe racing, hiking and backpacking, and spending time with his wife at their off-grid cabin in Big Bend. He and his wife Cheryl are the parents of three children and grandparents to three beautiful granddaughters.
If you would like to connect with Omar, here is where you can find him:
On his GoBeyond.blog, he writes about life, faith, and adventure. On his ExploreTexas.blog Omar writes about his adventures in the Lone State and post updates about his off-grid adventure. Omar's BibleTeachingNotes.blog site has research notes from 20 years of writing for LifeWay and 27 years of working with Bible study teachers.
Omar and I go way back, and I highly respect his perspective on missions and his teachings. Recently Omar read my latest book Awake My Soul: 3 Ways to Ignite Your Relationship with God, and this is what he said, "We live in an era of incessant activity and distractions. Every day we are assaulted by constant noise and demands that overstimulate our souls, leaving them bruised and parched. The incessant movement of our lives robs us of the time and space we need in order to draw closer to God. There is, however, hope! In her book "Awake My Soul," Candace offers a practical plan to ignite intimacy with the Almighty. The path is simple, and the results will exceed your expectations. Join me on this journey toward deeper intimacy with God, one day at a time."
