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 […]

Another Way Education Is Emphasized Within Church Planting I support church planting with NTM PNG by teaching the children of missionaries. However, the need for quality education for the children from tribal church plants is very real. Below our communications manager describes R* Valley Academy and how it hopes to meet that need.

In the end, the Wano people are able to do outreaches because of the aviation support provided by MAF. It’s a […]

I’m at a child safety training. There is some automatic camaraderie with others at such conferences as we are all in missions and/or education with similar goals. This training is a small group of only twenty, but I wasn’t quite sure who my people were until a fellow attendee declared, “You know what I love […]

There’s a title you haven’t seen from me during a September in the past decade. Most overseas missionaries complete four full years on the field and then complete one full year home assignment. I’ve taken an alternate route, completing ten months on the field and two months on home assignment most years. That means that […]

The Class of 2021 made it to the end. I had my doubts, but the Lord sustained the dozen students and their families and us teachers. The audience at the celebration was only the grads and their families, but otherwise the ceremony was typical. This means that I got to say a few words in […]
