Africa Update

Africa Update

(A few of our school kids on the shore of Lake Victoria.) My daughter and I traveled to Kenya during the first two weeks of January to visit our school projects. This was an important visit as I have not been to Kenya in several years. The last time I was planning a visit, my […]

From A Pure Heart

From A Pure Heart

As Jesus watched people place their offering into the temple treasury, He noticed a poor widow who put in two coins valued at less than a penny. Mark 12:43-44 “Calling His disciples to Him, Jesus said, ‘I tell you the truth, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. They […]

Un Corazón Puro

Mientras Jesús miraba a la gente depositando sus ofrendas en el tesoro del templo, se dió cuenta de una pobre viuda quien puso dos monedas que valoraban menos de un centavo.

Surrender And Live

Surrender And Live

Jeremiah warned the people of Jerusalem for many years that they must repent or be destroyed. He often warned with direct words from God: “I am preparing a disaster for you and devising a plan against you. So turn from your evil ways” (Jeremiah 18:11). It’s hard to imagine a more direct warning. But the […]

Rendir y Vivir

Jeremías advirtió a la gente en Jerusalén por muchos años que deberían arrepentirse o serían destruídos.

Es difícil imaginar una advertencia […]

Resolve To Be Transformed

¿Que haremos diferente este año? Durante la primera semana de Enero, habrán mas dietas comenzadas y mas intentos de varias formas de “auto-mejoramiento” que durante cualquier otro tiempo del año. Yo confieso que he tomado una resolución de correr mil millas este año. También confieso que no he comenzado muy bien – solamente he corrido […]

Off The Throne

Off The Throne

After the birth of Jesus, Magi (wise men) came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the One who has been born King of the Jews?” (Matthew 2:2). When King Herod heard about this he became greatly disturbed. Herod had been appointed King of the Jews by the Roman government, but he was only partially Jewish […]

Bajemonos del Trono

Después del nacimiento de Jesús, llegaron tres magos a Jerusalén y preguntaron, “¿Dónde está el rey de los judíos, que ha nacido?” (Mateo 2:2). Cuando el Rey Herodes oyó esto se puso muy turbado. Herodes había sido nombrado Rey de los Judíos por el gobierno Romano; pero solamente era parcialmente Judío y no fue muy […]
