I don’t know what algorithm has given me social media ads for almost-private jets, but there’s definitely been a mismatch of some sort. It made me laugh aloud to think that I’d ever been traveling on anything other than a full-to-the-brim international flight or a tiny unpressurized mission plane. But, really, I haven’t been traveling […]

Translation is one (big) step toward a mature church. And as a support missionary, I serve in missionary kid education as their parents work toward seeing those mature churches established. Here is a brief update from NTM PNG Communications about translation in PNG. According to Jason Stuart, our Translation Consultant Coordinator, we have been involved in Scripture […]

March is a month of straddling two school years. I need to stay fully engaged and excited about this school year. Since I teach grade 11 and 12 students, they need my extra enthusiasm in the last few months. I’m looking at lesson planning for the last term knowing that I need to make the […]

The new year is the middle of the school year and a lot feels the same, but January still seems like a good time to look back and look forward. Looking back on the year for the field is such an encouragement. Check out this graphic that highlights the way God is working in tribal […]

The story was similar […]

Even from afar these days, I serve in supporting church planting through missionary kid education. The people group featured this month is served by families that have or are sending their children to the mission school where I serve. I might have a little closer connection to them than you, but I hope in the […]

After sitting, waiting, and spinning, a decision has been made I am in a bit of disbelief that my last post or update was two months ago. It really doesn’t seem that long ago, but I do suppose a lot has happened. My mother has come back to her home after 72 days in either […]

A blog post not about laundry, but about anticipating Living in a country that is in the slowest twenty countries for broadband speed means I am familiar with the spinning loading circle as a website loads or even as I try to save something on the server. Sometimes I use that waiting time wisely, and […]

Living in the fourth-largest metropolitan area of the US means home assignment has included a lot of sitting in traffic. My errand-running looks completely different than walking around a 30-acre center. As I was inching forward last week on my way downtown, I was reminded of a few truths about the Christian life. When I […]
