We’re in the States on Home Assignment right now. We’re spending time with family, we’re sharing about our ministry with supporting churches, we’re eating awesome food and getting fat…all the things that you’d expect a missionary family to do when they hit their home turf. Besides getting to share with church groups though, we were […]

We’re going to see a baptism. It’s going to be a fun one. What a beautiful day! We’re not scared.   Uh-oh! A jungle! A big, dark jungle. We can’t go over it. We can’t go under it. Oh no! We’ve got to go through it! Stumble, trip! Stumble, trip! Stumble, trip! We’re going to […]

I am not a rapper. Actually, I am about as “not a rapper” as they come. I don’t have rhythm, I don’t like bling, I wear flannel shirts and hiking boots as leisure wear… you get the idea. Nevertheless, out of the vestiges of my youth, I was reminded of the lyrics of an old […]

Last week, I wrote up my account of how I single-handedly ended up single-handed, which was no small feat in itself, as obviously, I only had the single hand to type it with. Now that the back-story is public knowledge, I thought that I should probably go ahead and fill in a few more of […]

You may have noticed that the frequency of our updates has reached something of an all-time low of late. Over the last 4 months we have posted no more than three newsy items. Normally, I would feel obliged to apologize for such negligence, but this time things are different. This time it’s not my fault! […]

We are out of the jungle on break right now. Well, we’re out of the jungle, anyway. Since arriving out at our mission center, our family has spent the last 12 days battling a stomach virus that has been waging war on multiple fronts. It’s been mainly a losing battle. The enemy has taken control […]
