Snow and Cold …

January 21, 2014

This winter seems to be longer and colder than last year and much harsher too. Jared has worked quite a bit of “overtime” since Christmas due to the amount of snow and ice that we have gotten ; and we all are thinking ‘enough is enough’. Last week one of our co-workers transferred to our […]

A New Beginning

January 17, 2014

This January finds close to thirty students beginning a new chapter in their lives. They come from all parts of the United States with the desire of learning more about HIM. Their faces are becoming familiar but putting their names with their faces take a bit more time! Registration went extremely well and although there […]

The Class of Fall 2013

December 14, 2013

Earlier today our Fall Class of 2013 walked across the stage to get that much desired piece of paper that tells the world that they have completed this part of the course that God had laid out for them. Jared and I have gotten close to some of these students and it will be hard […]

“WHODUNIT?”

November 18, 2013

What do you have with a room full of students and staff dressed in costumes of the 1920’s; in a room electrified with intrigue and mystery? An NTBI social event of “whodunit?” that’s what!! The rich colors, beautiful drapes framing a photography booth, the placement of the palm plants, and the low lighting sent […]

Overjoyed!

Our hearts were blessed as we recently met our newest grand-baby who was born in September. He is the third for us – the second child (son) to our oldest daughter and her husband. We were amazed at how much he looks like his older brother in this newborn stage. It was as if we […]

Day of Prayer … Paraguay!

Not too long ago Jared and I had the privilege of hosting a Day of Prayer session with our students. It was certainly a joy to pray with these young people concerning the needs of Paraguay and for our friends serving there. An extra blessing was that our guest speakers for that day were Bruce […]

His Ways Are Not My Ways

August 26, 2013

The events of this summer have once again affirmed to me that I am not the Master of my days. God alone is weaving my tapestry and I don’t get to see the finished project yet. I had committed myself to teach VBS again this year in Nebraska but it looked like I was going […]

Jesus loves the little children …

In July we traveled to Nebraska in order to teach a week of VBS. It is always a privilege and a joy to participate in their program. As one of the teachers, I take the opportunity to present Christ as our Savior and invite those in my class to believe and accept HIS WORK on […]

Mental Overload

June 6, 2013

The week following graduation the staff here at NTBI had the privilege to participate in a Workshop on sharpening our interpersonal skills. There were several sessions each day and although the subject matter was helpful and humbling at times, there was so much to absorb. We found ourselves being on “material mental overload”. It was […]
