Where do you turn to in time of pain?
We all experience pain in life. Pain comes in many forms. Physical or mental, it's all pain. This is the story of one woman who turned to Christ after many years of pain...and gained everything. Madira was desperate. This pain which had tortured her for years was only getting worse. Initially, she had sought professional... Continue Reading →
10 gifts that give back
Now that everyone is in a post-Halloween induced candy coma we can start thinking about Christmas. What? No? Okay, usually I say, "No Christmas talk until after Thanksgiving."

Planting Small Seeds
Last month I wrote about my Small Seeds Bible Campaign for Gospel for Asia. I talked about reaching my campaign goal earlier this year, and why not up the campaign ante?

Small Seeds Bible Campaign
LISTEN TO THIS: There are 80,000 people who will die today in South Asia without ever hearing about Jesus Christ. They don't know his name, let alone that He died for them. Let that sink in a moment.

World Water Day | March 22

Not Every Little Girl is Celebrated | Gendercide in So Asia
I have two daughters. The first took nearly two years to conceive. Oh, how we tested, tried, and waited. We found out she was a she on 9/11. That 9/11.
