Obviously it requires more than shovel and a strong back to tap into these reserves. It takes people who both know where the water is and how to get it out.Deep within the soul of every person is the understanding that he/she has been put ….

Here it is. Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in one spirit, contending as one man for the faith of the gospel (Phil1:27)Here are my notes:WHATEVER HAPPENS - Paul is in prison for preaching the gospel – he might die or he might be released – whether our leader is present or not ….

Enjoy reading.)I’m back in Nashville after a two week trip that included ministering to leaders at Every Nation Church in London, visiting my son in Oxford and training church planters in South Africa. It also included the usual flight delays and monstrous airport security lines.One of my airplane books for this trip was Tim Keller’s King’s Cross, a study of the life of Jesus in the Gospel of Mark. According to Keller, when Mark says Jesus spoke “with authority” it is like saying Jesus is speaking as the author. The New ….
by LA Mumar GROWING UP in an exclusive boys school, I always had classmates from prominent families. These guys were really rich, they always traveled and had the latest GI Joes and RC cars (remote controlled cars, for the young ones). They literally could go, eat, and get whatever they want. I always envied these people (don’t you at times?) thinking that these guys never had problems and the lives they lived were fairy tales that always had great endings. The older I got the more I realized that this was not true. All those ….
by Lynn Nawata (Note: We’re re-posting Lynn’s ‘The Tale of Gaijin” blog post last June 21, 2008) Israel is skinny. Whereas the Philippines is a nation of skinny people, Israel is a skinny nation. From the northernmost tip to the southern border, it is at most 260 miles. When I was a kid in Canada, we used to drive farther than that to visit my grandparents for the weekend. The distance from east to west in Israel is 70 miles at its fattest point and only 10 miles at its thinnest. It can take longer ….
