2021-22: See God’s Faithfulness!

September 16, 2022

Reflecting on 2021-2022, we have seen a lot of changes in our circumstances, but also God’s unchanging faithfulness. We are reminded of the Bible’s promise in Isaiah 54:10 where God says that even if “the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; yet My kindness shall not be removed from you.” — 2021 — […]

Transitions

July 14, 2020

Ethnos360 Bible Institute has a lot of transitions ahead. This fall will be the first year of the consolidated U.S. campuses in Wisconsin. A few years ago, the mission began developing online versions of its courses. We thank the Lord that the entire freshman curriculum could be made available at the same time coronavirus concerns […]

Bittersweet Farewells

October 30, 2019

This last year at the Michigan location has been a precious one so far. Normally it is just the Bible school students who are scattering to take the Good News to the ends of the earth, but this year each couple and individual on staff are also prayerfully considering where God would have them serve […]

Equipping the Next Generation of Tribal Church Planters . . .

January 28, 2019

In April, Ken prepared a Papua New Guinea themed meal for the students at the Bible Institute. As he looked around the house for decor to bring in, we chuckled to see a picture he had taken back in 2003 of a couple teenagers at the mission high school in PNG. One of those young […]

New Name, Same Message

May 23, 2017

It’s Official! NTM’s new name is “Ethnos360!” With 80% of remaining unreached people groups now in countries actively opposed to Christian missionaries, we believe the new name will remove some barriers and stigmas for believers serving in these contexts. “A thriving church for every people” continues to be the core reason for our existence. (Note […]

Serving Tribal Churches

November 30, 2016

In July, Ken accompanied itinerant medical missionaries Dick and Leota Watterson to Honduras to help with construction needs at a seminary there. Our church in Michigan supports three national couples who are graduates of this seminary and who are now church-planting among the Lenka people group. On Sunday he was able to travel into […]

Come and See!

April 1, 2016

Thanks so much for taking the time to pray for our lives and ministries. As always, our most important request is that we each stay close to the Lord, letting the Holy Spirit guide our priorities and words. It is easy to get busy doing good things in our own strength instead. New Tribes Bible […]

And Back Again . . .

November 5, 2014

August 2014 Thank you so much for your care and concern for us over the past seven weeks. What an incredible privilege to see the length and breadth of this beautiful country! As you know, however, sightseeing was not the only goal. PRAISE the Lord that almost every supporter we have out west we were […]

Coming your Way?

June 7, 2014

If you live west of the Mississippi, there is a good chance we will be in your area sometime this summer. It has been four years since we were able to get out to California to update our home churches there, so for seven weeks we will be traveling and visiting supporters, family and friends. […]

God’s Work in Papua New Guinea

August 29, 2013

NTM serves remote groups in over 20 countries, and also helps train missionaries for countries closed to traditional missions. PNG is the country dearest to us because of our years there. Brandon and Rachel Buser were one of the first families to use the orientation housing Ken helped build in P.N.G. For the past five years […]
