I was just making plans for tomorrow on my calendar when I noticed that tomorrow is Ash Wednesday. Traditionally as a Southern Baptist I haven’t participated in Ash Wednesday because it is a “Catholic” holiday. I think (no, I know) that sometimes as children of the reformation we are too quick to ignore and throw […]

I think that all Southern Baptist’s should take a look at this article. It is a little long, but well worth your time.

I was chatting on the phone with a friend from home tonight and we didn’t get to finish our conversation. Angie was asking about Christianity/Buddhism and what I had learned so far from talking with people here and from God’s Word. While I was at orientation with the IMB in Richmond, Virginia a man named […]

Last week I went to an English play that was produced by the senior English students here at Mahasarakham University. They performed “Once In A Midsummer Night’s Dream” by Shakespeare and they did a wonderful job! Here are a few pictures:

This is the only picture that developed clearly from singing Karaoke the other night. If […]

This morning I read a great article about abortion written by Dr. Mohler. Here is part of it:

3 Your eyes have seen what the […]

I read an email from my Mother this morning that hurt really bad. I read that my Great Uncle Paul died the other day. Paul Pierce was my grandfather’s older brother and was the closest thing that I have ever really had to a grandfather. Both of my grandfather’s died when I was about 2 […]

Here is part of a great article I read on Al Mohler’s weblog today:
Scripture tells us that we should speak “to one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs” (Eph 5:19). But how are our hymns to be measured? We must measure them by their content, by the God they reveal, and here we […]

I had an interesting conversation with a YWAM student (named Oy) today at a Thai church. Before I begin telling you about the conversation I need to fill you in with some background information. My friend On (picture in a couple posts below this one) is active in YWAM and she introduced me to alot […]

Last year I was reading the Bible through and God really spoke to me about waiting patiently for his direction and call on my life. I was consumed with trying to get to Thailand or attend seminary in Louisville. God has been slowly revealing to me what He has planned for my life. Even when […]
