My FIRST turbo and 2 Important Things Learned

Once again, it’s time for a ministry update and there is SO much to tell you all about!  Seriously.  Time has flown by for us here at EBI and we’ve had a lot of changes in our ministry.  It has been mostly good, and definitely all challenging mentally and physically, and of course required massive […]

A broken arm, a mangled tongue, and a leaky basement.

A broken arm, a mangled tongue, and a leaky basement.

That was just September! It HAS been a year for the books.  Would NOT have minded if some of it stayed in them, though.  Thank God that we know the end of this Story!    Can you imagine the turmoil if you didn’t know that God’s Word said that God is a good God (Luke […]

So, it’s June. 2021. Already.

Anyone else feel like while 2020 went very slowly, 2021 has been trying to do double time to make up for it? I know that March was just 3 months ago, and maybe it seems like this BECAUSE WE’RE in the, “Hurry up and wait mode.” But it just seems like I’ve had so much […]

The story continues to unfold, but it would appear that the 2cm cyst in my right kidney has continued to grow. I’ll tell you more about that later. But first some good news. Tamara had a great bit of news from her retinal specialist! She has been seeing a specialist for a while to take […]

March 2021 Update

March 2021 Update

In many ways, 2020 was a weird blessing that we’re incredibly grateful for and still trying to recover from. Over the last few months, not only have I been challenged to dig into the Word of God, but I have had the opportunity to do so with an old friend. In the process, it seems […]

Happy New Year! Happy Spring! Is it Summer, yet?!

Last night was the first “cold” night of the winter already and already summer seems like it is lurking around the corner. Please quietly disregard the fact that there is still snow on the ground and it’s below freezing… I don’t really ever remember thinking that, before. You see, I’m the guy that would be […]

How much more can God stand?!

My pastor dropped some heavy truth on Sunday. I thought maybe those of you that read my meanderings would appreciate some thoughts from the words spoken. We’ve been in 1st John for a while now, going methodically through the verses.  It has been VERY good, and as a Historical Literal Grammatical student of the Word […]

This is the day that the Lord has made…

Happy October! Some of you have asked, and I appreciate it, what the results were from the last visit were with the oncologist. “Great!” In a nutshell, there is nothing new to report. All the things that weren’t supposed to be there, aren’t, and the things that were supposed to stay the same did!  That’s […]

Back to school…

WELL.  What a couple of weeks it has been in our house…  “School” has started for our kids and they’re not exactly huge fans of the, “this new thing.”  But, then again, who is?  It is proving to be a often confusing challenge. And it is proving to be an opportunity to practice patience. Blech! […]
