Questions arise from believers and those in spiritual transition as to how a person really discerns what are the attitudes and traits of the converted Christian? What are the points and reasons one has to be joyous in if the “blessings and promises of God are not to always be physical or material”. What are […]
Cut and Dry….Part One, An Emotional Rant
I may be sorely reprimanded by my advisers and friends for the things I am going to say but I have been percolating on these things for a several months now. I have always been talked down from this approach for one reason or another and have retreated inward to define my point, refine my […]
An update and a thought..
Good Morning Brothers and Sisters from Addis Ababa, I wanted to write to you and give you an update as my time here is coming to a close and I am preparing to return to the U.S. in a little over a week. The Ethiopian Bible translation efforts are temporarily halted because my translator is […]
It’s the little things…
