Sunday, April 30, 2006 I have lived in a foreign country for over two years now. I represent a ministry here and am well aware that as a foreigner, I represent my country, the ministry and most importantly, my Savior to all I meet. And no matter how hard I try to be like the…
On March 6th, 2005 I left Minnesota for Monterrey , Mexico to take a group of youth on a short term mission’s trip. I drove our 1973 Ford 12 passenger van that we are leaving in Texas to be used in the ministry.

This morning I read a devotional (Our Daily Bread) about a man in the 1800’s who had walked into the cold water of the ocean when there was…
Monday, October 31, 2005 Halloween, perhaps it is a harmless event for children but Satan has a lot of tricks that look like treats in real life. He always has a disguise for sin that looks good in artificial light. -Lyn Sahr -2 Cor 11:14-15 NIV “…for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.“…
Thursday, September 22, 2005 This Sunday at 2 PM our church is having a special dedication service for the building. It has been a long seven months of remodeling. But when one compares that to remodeling a life, it is a relatively short time. A changed person is a lifetime project and we should be…
Wednesday, March 31, 2004 Much of what many people know about God and their Perspective of God is determined by what others say about the church they attend.
