Here and There

March 13, 2019

Where’s the best place to learn culture and language? Answer: in a cultural community where that language is spoken. But not all communities (or teachers, or schools…) are equal. On our trip to Asia in September, we checked out a language school where our people might learn national language and culture. Bill was asked to […]

Worldview

June 27, 2018

What Have Bill and Donna Been Up To? Here are a few examples of what we’ve been doing recently… Bill has been Skyping and emailing with missionaries in the Middle East, Mexico, Brazil, the USA, and a few countries in Asia, helping them work through their language learning struggles. We spent a week in […]

Airborne with Airborne

February 9, 2018

Our recent ministry trip to the Asia Pacific region was a great success. And we did not experience any missed flights or delays like we did going to Mexico in November. Now, our travel companions as we were locked inside a metal tube hurtling through the stratosphere… that’s another story. It is flu season–and […]

Oh, 9,000, Give or Take…

January 5, 2018

More numbers… This time the number is the approximate number of miles from San Diego to our destination in the Asia Pacific region. 9,000 miles–that’s a long trip. We leave tomorrow afternoon, Friday January 5th. We should reach our destination country after 9,000 miles and (Lord willing) 28 hours of flying, terminal hopping, and carry-on […]

3 + 1 + 2 = 46

December 28, 2017

As 2017 draws to a close, we want to express our gratitude to God for his faithfulness! 2017 began with Bill barely able to walk across a room (injury). The year ended with him going up and down stairs in Chihuahua Mexico (recovery!) And lot of great things happened in between. While in Chihuahua, Bill […]

Say What?

September 11, 2017

Everyone Needs to Hear! We say this often. It’s our passion. This is what missions is all about: The unreached need to be reached with the Gospel. They need to hear the message of Christ.. and we believe they deserve to hear it in their heart language. What Does “Hear” Really Mean? If they misunderstand […]

What Drives Us?

February 24, 2017

If every Christian in the world shared Christ with every single person they knew… and all of those people believed, there would still be two billion people in the world who had never heard the gospel. -David Platt (Cross 2015, paraphrased from a testimony by one of our Radius students)

Step by Step

February 19, 2017

Baby Steps In November and December we took our first trip to South Asia, the region with the most Unreached Peoples Groups in the world. Thousands of unreached groups call this part of the world home. We were blown away by the vastness, the tremendous need for committed Gospel ministers, the poverty, the oppressive idolatrous false […]

Spices and Thankfulness

November 2, 2016

Thankful for Pumpkin Spice It is the season for pumpkin spice you-name-its (and we’re thankful for those!); but we are also closing in on the season for giving thanks in a special way. Since we will be traveling in Asia over Thanksgiving, here is our list… Thankful for Ministry We are so grateful for the […]

Reaching the Unreached Next Door

October 11, 2016

Punjabi Sikhs America (and California in particular) is home to many Punjabi immigrants who are members of the Sikh religion. Sikhs are not Hindus, and are often mistaken for Muslims because of their turbans and beards. Sikhism is a monotheistic religion which was founded in the 15th century in the Punjab region of India, and […]
