Pray for Timmy’s Mom

Last night I was at the hospital with Timmy’s family after his mother had a serious surgery. Timmy, a deacon at my church, is a good man and has sweet family. As I sat in the ICU waiting room after the surgery, I was struck by the kindness I saw in the hearts [...]

Monday

Just a quick post-
I have had a wonderful time with the Lord this morning! I have a new memory verse (finally) and I’m about to go “play cars” with Caleb. Yesterday was a good day of worshiping the Lord and we had our last session of FAITH last night.
Here is my verse:

A Missionary Giant?

This is my picture at IMB headquarters next to a cardboard cut-out of Lottie Moon. That is her ACTUAL height! Praise God our physical stature doesn’t dictate our Spiritual Stature!

Blogging… For the Purpose of Godliness?

“…but on the other hand, discipline yourselves for the purpose of godliness.” -1 Timothy 4:7 (NASB)

While the article is not specific to the South Bolivian Quechua who live [...]

Lottie Lives

I want to share a new blog with you I learned about in an email newsletter I received from the IMB earlier this week. Since it’s almost brand-new, there’s not too much to it now but it is based on a cool idea. It is a blog, set up with the letters and stories from [...]

How God led me to Missions

I grew up in Pleasant Union Christian Church, a non-denominational congregation, where I was taught the fundamentals of the Faith. A church heavily supportive of International Missions, I grew up in an environment that respected and loved international missions. On numerous occasions, my family would feed, and even host, missionaries while on furlough. My earliest [...]

Along with Paraguay, Bolivia is one of only two landlocked counties in South America. Though Bolivia is a Third World nation, there are some who live there who are very [...]
