Twenty.
Twenty. Twenty years ago, God called me to launch a missions organization. I left working at a large church to start something from nothing. Generation one. Nothing must become something. While this seemed like, and was, a daunting task, there were a few...
Obligation.
Obligation. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is not to stop with us; it is to spread with us. We are Plan A, there is no Plan B. If we know Jesus, we are obligated to tell the world; and not just the world in our own backyard. THE world. In Romans 1:14-15, Paul writes:...
Tenacious.
Tenacious. Right now, there are people fighting for their lives. For some, it is all around them—the poverty, the hunger, the sickness, the war, the political oppression, the demonic influences. There are people who will go to bed tonight and not know if they will...

Tarahumara.
Tarahumara. Deep in the Sierra Madre Mountains of Mexico, there is an indigenous group of people known as the Tarahumara Indians. They are a quiet people, passive in nature. The women make their own...
Bricks Without Straw.
Bricks Without Straw. “You’ve got to be kidding me.” How many times did you say that phrase last year? As faith-filled believers, we would like to think that no matter the circumstances, we will...
Inflatable.
Inflatable. Have you ever jumped on an inflatable (bouncy house)? Most kids in the United States under the age of 18 have probably been on one several times in their growing-up years:...
Access.
Access. Have you ever heard the term, “Unreached People Group?” (UPG) The Joshua Project defines UPG’s this way: An unreached people [group] is a people group among which there is no indigenous...
in the clouds
In The Clouds. Do you love mountains? Seeing them in pictures, taking hikes, or maybe even climbing one? From a distance, they look beautiful; up close, they look impressive; when you begin to...
what we bring
What We Bring. If I could summarize the greatest need of humanity, no matter where we stand on the planet, it is hope. Having hope changes everything. When we have hope, we can get up every morning...
