Well, we are one step closer to your departure on the 3rd of May. One of our greatest concerns is for your prayer support. If we are to accomplish this mission, we can’t do it!

But then God….
Okinawa, Japan It hardly seems possible that less than two months ago we were planning a vacation with some friends in Europe, Italy in particular. But then God…. This really has been the story of our lives. But then God…. But there we were on Feb 5th, minding our own business. Bev had watched andContinue reading “But then God….”
Bad Timing
Joshua 3:15 So much in life involves timing. Athletes know this all too well. The difference between a field goal point and a missed opportunity is timing. A split second one way or the other means a miss. Horse racing is often decided by a fraction of a second. Swimmers touch the wall toContinue reading “Bad Timing”
Dead
Joshua 1:2 We have so many ways of saying that someone is dead without saying that they are dead. We speak about someone “passing” as though they were a carton of milk past its expiration date. We say they have “gone” as though they were down at the corner store picking up a coupleContinue reading “Dead”
Last Word

The knowledge is available, but we must take the opportunity to learn it, to explore, to gather and partake. But even if we have head knowledge, weContinue reading “We Know – Part One”
Forgiveness
1 John 5:16-17 Some things are worse than others, but some people act as though one bump in the road is as bad as any other, that all bumps are of equal consequences. They get a hangnail and the end of the world has come. Their reaction doesn’t match the event. I loveContinue reading “Forgiveness”
Radio Repeaters
1 John 5:14-15 Radio Repeaters are devices that receive a radio signal that is weak and then amplify it and send it out again. Sometimes they transmit on the same frequency that they received. Sometimes they send it out on a different frequency. The content of the signal doesn’t change. What they received theyContinue reading “Radio Repeaters”
