Dana and I love our morning coffee but we’ve found it can easily be a whack to the wallet if we’re not careful. Go figure we developed a taste for an expensive brand long ago. Millstone Colombian Supremo is our favorite but isn’t sold at our favorite price, so we decided to try some [...]

I like to be fed
One of my mostest favoritest things in the world is for Dana to fix me a meal. I can’t explain it, I just absolutely love it. It has been a great pleasure to experience her growing culinary skill, but much to the dismay of my growing culinary gut. Mealtimes have grown to [...]

We’re losing a lot
This week has invoked many emotions for both Dana and I. Since the whole 10%-leap-in-support-in-only-24-hours deal that God pulled off, it has pretty much smacked us in the face that God is going to have us living on a different continent in 3 months.

We’re leaving REAL SOON
We paid a recent visit to our date book and noticed that 3 months from our goal departure date (July 30) is on top of us! Talk about wide-eyed. God has really done some amazing things in the past 24 hours. Our support percentage has gone up 10% to 68% in that [...]

Today’s Good
Today’s good: We solidified some plans to go to Orlando in early June for a partnership development opportunity. I was able to help Dana by putting together a personal journal for her. We had the chance to relax today.

Light in a Dark World

One comment someone made was regarding our culture’s obsession with shock value. In this past week’s case, the indication of such is how much we saw and heard about the gunman, why he may [...]

The Great Commission and You
Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19
I attended the Global Missions celebration Wednesday night at our home church. While we were visiting with people before the service a thought came to me about the great commission [...]

I’ve got a lot of different emotions about Virginia Tech
My prominent emotion is hurt. I hurt for the families who not only unexpectedly lost loved ones, but lost them in such a way as this. I’ve also dealt with anger and vengeance. I want to invoke pain on Cho based on what I believe is right and wrong. He has [...]
