Scrumptious Scripture

Scrumptious Scripture

August 23, 2018

As the idiom goes here, “Their stomachs are not small.” Translation – They have a large appetite.  Now, that does certainly include greasy pork, delicately smoked rat, and the white mans’ noodles and rice. However, it also includes their hunger for Scripture. From the early days and our first printed Scripture portions, the local body […]

Every Sunday Morning

Every Sunday Morning

August 4, 2018

Every Sunday morning, the Pal believers gather to worship together and listen to the missionaries teach God’s Word. Then, after a short break, Pal unbelievers gather to hear the Pal believers teach God’s Word. It’s an amazing sight: men who, a few short years ago, didn’t understand that God’s grace is free and lived in […]

Night of the Killer Snakes

Night of the Killer Snakes

July 16, 2018

Seeing snakes is not a common occurrence around here. All the snakes I have seen since moving here in 2012 could probably be counted using only my fingers and toes, so we are talking about only a few snake sightings per year. Often, those sightings come on a sunny afternoon when the snakes are laying […]

Praising God in the mud and rain

Praising God in the mud and rain

May 15, 2018

Sludgin’ through the mud up and down treacherous mountain trails, dreary rain dripping from my brow, my cheap mobile phone barely lighting my path.  It was miserable.  And it was wonderful. Had you peeked in on me an hour earlier, you would have seen me sitting amidst a sea of men, women, and children cramming […]

Peace

Peace

April 26, 2018

As you probably well know, it was no small decision for us to return to PNG.  I am not saying that choosing to stay stateside would have been any easier or any less of a decision – any choice would have been a big decision – and God led us to make the big decision […]

Back to PNG

Back to PNG

April 12, 2018

We fled from the bleary dreary Minnesota winter weather the day after Easter, and our plane ride wonderfully took us to the radiant sunshine and beautiful beaches of Honolulu, Hawaii.  And it just so happens that my parents live there, and so we enjoyed a fabulous week eating Grandma’s delicious cooking and playing in the […]

A Blog Post

A Blog Post

January 26, 2018

I figure if I start with an uninspiring title, then it’s much harder to be disappointed by the content of the post.  But if I throw out a catchy click-bait title and the post does not live up to its name, then disappointment abounds.  So now that I have set the bar as low as […]

An opportunity to bless

An opportunity to bless

November 13, 2017

We’d like to give you an opportunity to be a blessing, through giving, to us and our teammates.  We have decided to have a VSAT dish installed next to our houses in the tribe which will provide reliable and relatively fast internet from the midst of the jungle in Papua New Guinea.  The current service […]

A Short Update

A Short Update

November 17, 2016

Hey everybody. I thought I should write an update for those of you who were praying for my doctor visit. It went really well! Thanks for praying. The doctor (Chris calls him GI Jeff!) was good about listening to our ideas and trying to understand our situation, and he is willing to continue to communicate […]

The Circuit

March 3, 2016

We wanted to let you know where we will be sharing, and when, so if you would like to come hear about what God has been doing in our lives and the work He has done in Papua New Guinea, you can plan accordingly.  Also, we want to let you know we are available and […]
