Fathers Would You Consent

Fathers Would You Consent

August 27, 2016

Over the years I have had fathers and mothers a bit upset when I talk to their children about giving their life to the mission call. I had one young lady say this to me on a plane headed back to the States after a mission trip. “Jack, please pray for me, I am going […]

Riding the Wind

Riding the Wind

July 5, 2016

Sitting on our porch in Papua New Guinea looking out over the Bismarck Sea one could hear and see airplanes of all kinds lifting from the airstrip along the coast below. We would awake to the sun rising, blowing us away with pictures only God could provide. Many planes would come and go, but the […]

It was was not Yesterday

It was was not Yesterday

April 26, 2016

It was not yesterday, it was 1977, but at times facts from the past stimulate my mind until it seems it was just yesterday. We were living in our little bush house located in the upper Sepik region of Papua New Guinea. This was a place Janie and I will never forget in our life […]

Really, I can not read the translation

Really, I can not read the translation

April 22, 2016

Lisa, Janie and I had a good laugh as the self-timer on my camera clicked. The photo was taken in the little church on a river winding through the jungle in the Northern Regions of Papua New Guinea two years ago. “You cannot read a word of that translation,” Lisa said with a twinkle in […]

Translation At Its Best

Translation At Its Best

April 17, 2016

A translation must stand on two legs to make it good as far as church planting is concerned. Those two legs are literacy and discipleship without which the translation, no matter how well done, will not have the desired effect needed for a good church plant. I have had the privilege to watch a church […]

Sitting Where They Sat, Astonished

Sitting Where They Sat, Astonished

July 10, 2015

I have heard it said that the eyes are the gateway to the soul, but is it true? I do not know. One thing I know for sure looking into this man’s eyes today I see something that he did not have over thirty five years ago as he played with our younger son Darren […]

Sometimes An Old Post Can Tell A Story

June 29, 2015

  In many ways if a man lives long enough he will be able to see his work expand or deteriorate. My trip back to Bisorio Papua New Guinea in 2015 allowed me to see both in just a matter of time. As I stepped from the boat change began to flood my memory with […]

Building On The Plain of Shinar

June 14, 2013

God’s mission call to go into all the world has never changed, the first call was go to the whole world and the last was the same, from start to finish it is go. Please bear with me as a recruiter for the Kingdom of God and not a Mission Rep. as we look into […]

My Deep Concern For The Churches

My Deep Concern For The Churches

February 15, 2012

In 2 Corinthians 11:22-28, the missionary life lived out by the apostle Paul comes front stage. The spot light shines on this man’s battered body showing all the battle scars from a life on the mission field. Verse 28 shows us where his mind was at daily, the deep concern for the churches.

Remember The Loaves

Remember The Loaves

October 22, 2011

Jesus was praying, Luke 9:18, on the road, Mark 8:27, in the region of Caesarea Philippi, Matthew 16:13, when his disciples joined Him and He asked this question. “Who do the crowds say that I am? So they answered and said, “John the Baptist, but some say Elijah; and others say that one of the […]
