Good Gifts

March 13, 2023

We had a wonderful trip to Pennsylvania in January, and we are so glad to be home in Missouri now! Thank you to everyone who connected with us and hosted us. God met our partnership needs during our trip, providing new prayer and financial partners. This is exciting because it means we can keep serving […]

Away From Home

January 24, 2023

We may be a few weeks late, but Happy New Year! We celebrated the start of 2023 during our partnership development trip, which wraps up in about a week. We wanted to share some highlights from our trip and what God is doing in our lives. We arrived in Pennsylvania for Christmas, and we have […]

Tethered to the Shore

September 27, 2022

The Ethnos360 Training campus borders the Lake of the Ozarks, and Nick and I went out to the boat dock the other night to fish. The dock has a permanent tether to the shore, but it is also in constant motion with the water’s movement. That is how I feel about our ministry here: we […]

Faithful in the Old and New

July 15, 2022

I took the girls on a walk and realized it was time for our yearly picture…the third one of its kind! We are entering our third year of ministry here at Ethnos360 Training. God is so faithful to our family in the ways that He sustains us. It made me reflect on our previous two […]

Groaning and Glory

March 15, 2022

Lately, I have been thinking on Romans 8 and how true it is for our world: “For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers together until now” (Romans 8:22). As we await a coming glory and renewal, we can see the groaning in the world around us. Daily, we hear news of suffering […]

Reflections and Resolutions

January 12, 2022

Happy New Year! I love celebrating the start of a new year because it reminds me that God upheld us through the past year, and we can count on that faithfulness as we enter a new one. It can be tempting to put our hope in our own goals, resolutions, or plans for the year. But […]

Is He Worthy?

May 1, 2021

Last month, we had the privilege of attending graduation here at Ethnos360 Training. We are so grateful that we had the opportunity to get to know the missionaries-in-training who graduated and are headed to Mexico, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, and other countries. In each location, unreached people groups continue to live with no Bible […]

What’s Next

May 15, 2020

I think the whole world is asking this question right now. And I know that we are praying frequently for wisdom for everyone making decisions about what comes next. But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. James 3:17 We are certainly asking […]

Facing Uncertainty

March 24, 2020

I think it’s safe to say that the last few weeks have raised a lot of questions for everyone. Thankfully, God’s work has not stopped. We urge you to seek God and put His eternal purposes above all else. Who can you reach in this unusual situation? How can you join God in His missional […]
