Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were looking for Jesus but only found an angel that wanted them to, “come and see the place where the Lord lay.” Then he said, “go quickly and tell the disciples He has risen from the dead.” On their way to tell the disciples the wonderful news Jesus showed […]

My old body will one day turn to dust but my spirit and passion for missions will be forever more in the hearts and works of the young men following in my footsteps as I follow in the footsteps of those that have gone on before me. These young men from Germany and many others […]

Romans 12:1 and 2, gave us directions to God’s will, and Matthew 28:19 was an opened door to serve on the mission field.

My heart is deeply embedded in the mountains and steamy jungles of Papua New Guinea where many men and women still roam without the gospel message. At times it is hard for me to believe that a place no bigger than California would have over 800 languages and after all these years so many still […]

Over the last 40 years, Janie and I have worked among the unreached people groups of Papua New Guinea with several different teams. Although one of the hardest things a man or woman might face would be working with a team that did not fit; working without a team is much worse in the long […]
