Live Intentionally

Share I mentioned before that I wanted to give you a tour of Joe and Molly’s place.  I think one of the fears people have of going on a trip like this is fear of what their living conditions will be like.  You go in with so many stereotypes and preconceived notions of what things [...]

Share Our trip from Tampa to Nakuru couldn’t have been better. Our first flight left Tampa at 3:30 PM Saturday and arrived in Detroit at 6:15.  We had just a hour layover in Detroit, so by the time we found the gate for our next flight (which they had moved without notice) most people had [...]

I wanted to improve the look and functionality before our trip, but as usual it didn’t happen until the last minute. I upgraded WordPress to 2.8.1 and installed the free [...]

Tomorrow afternoon Jennifer and I head out on a 10-day trip to serve with Joe and Molly Bail in Nakuru, Kenya. I can’t tell you how excited we are! Before we go, I want to share one more thing God has impressed on me this week…

Saturday I went to visit a friend in the hospital. While I was waiting in the lobby for an elevator, three other people arrived. One of them asked me, “Are you a minister?” It’s a conversation I’ve replayed in my mind several times since.

Share Only 5 days until Jennifer and I leave for our Kenya trip.  I just wanted to thank everyone who has given things for us to take to children of Nakuru.  Here are a couple of pics. The first is Korin and Isabel Deitch who got a bunch of black dress shoes from Goodwill (I [...]

Today we’re discussing Chapter 12 in the Flickering Pixels group blog project. I feel personally challenged to speak my mind, and be more forthright with people, even if it means risking conflict.

Share Only 9 days until our trip to Kenya.  I don’t know why I didn’t mention this here earlier, but Jennifer and I are going to take an extra suitcase each filled with stuff for the kids in Kenya. Last Wednesday I posted a list of the things you can donate on the Kenya Trip [...]
