A Really Full Life
exploring the divine as it touches our everyday lives
Ministry Adventure in Ghana
We’re in Northern Ghana visiting small churches to teach the people and encourage the pastors. Many Bible School students have returned to their home villages to serve as Bible teachers and pastors. A wonderful fulfillment of the original hope for the ministry here in Ghana. We invite you to follow along for the next 4 weeks as we explore what God has been doing in ‘the uttermost parts of the earth’.
It’s Friday and I’m done. I don’t mean I’ve finished all the things I wanted or needed to finish this week. I just mean I’m done trying. You probably noticed that I was in Africa. For 6 weeks. I’m not saying you cared, just that you noticed. Didn’t you? Last week I was glad to return home and see my Mom and our kids, but this week I’ve been in the Twilight… Read More
Today let’s talk about repentance~ Repentance is the first step toward a relationship with God. You don’t have to read very far in the Gospels to find out about repentance.

I’m dreaming of a really lush vegetable garden for my backyard this summer. Today my daughter, the Kitchen Designer, is coming over to design some raised planters for my backyard. The girl works miracles with a tape measure, pencil, and paper. She says she’s leaving the dirty work for her Mom.

Speaking of the Academy Awards. . . My morning reading took me to Exodus 14 where God is setting things up for the big dramatic action scene. Exodus reads like a movie script, complete with dialogue and action sequences. God’s giving direction to His lead actor, Moses. The Lord said to Moses, “Why do you cry to me? Tell the people of Israel to go forward. Lift up your staff, and stretch… Read More
In a blinding experience on a dusty road from Jerusalem to Damascus Paul the Pharisee met Jesus Christ. He was transformed and translated in a moment. Born again as he met the risen glorified Christ and in that same moment ‘translated’ from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of God’s dear Son.
