A Different World!

August 19, 2017

There was an amazing group of pastors/leaders at the third conference. Deep in the jungles, unnoticed by the world, but some of these men would probably be in the Heb. 11 “Hall of faith” if it were written today. Honored to work with them. As we left the muddy shores of the village yesterday, I turned […]

Free Pizza!

September 28, 2016

My grandkids get free pizza when they read a certain amount of books. I think that’s really cool. Even though all I used to get was IN TROUBLE for reading too many books! 🙂 Well, maybe I was doing that instead of what I was supposed to be doing…but I always figured reading was a […]

Home Again! (Thanks for praying!)

July 31, 2015

As I flew out of the Sepik region Friday morning it was first class. But don’t be jealous. Yes, I was in row 1 but it wasn’t a luxury seat. There was very little leg room for my cramped feet and nowhere to put my carry-on. But the view out the window was definitely first class. Once […]
