Taking Jesus to Peru
Jesus told us to go into all the world and spread the gospel. We know this as the Great Commission. (See Matthew 28:18-20.) Each summer I take people on a two-week international missions trip so we can do just that! Will you pray about joining me this summer? We’ll be going to Peru. […]
Time at Home
I’m enjoying time off this month from traveling and speaking. I don’t schedule myself to be off during the month of December— I just don’t get scheduled anywhere. And I totally understand.

It’s a fascinating two-verse story found in 2 Kings 13:20-21. Last week I mentioned that we can learn three important things from […]
The Walking Dead?
It’s an interesting story. After Elisha the prophet was buried (and a few years had gone by), some Israelites were burying a man but noticed a gang of raiders quickly approaching. Knowing time was short, they quickly tossed the dead man’s body inside the tomb of Elisha and ran for safety. (You can read the […]
