Take the Sixty-Day Challenge
Gratitude is a loosely used are rarely understood word. By strictest definition gratitude is the quality of being thankful but it implies so much more. Gratitude, as a part of the G3 culture, is an awareness of the presence of God in our lives and taking the opportunity to express this without reservation. Imagine what…
Read MoreHello, June!
June is a special month for our family because both Mary and I celebrate our birthdays in June. Mine on the second and Mary’s on the twenty-sixth. Additionally we always plan a family vacation to Hilton Head Island for a couple of weeks in June. Hardly a day goes by that one of our grandkids…
Read MoreWhat Can I Give to God?
Too often we think of our gifts to God in terms of time, treasures, and talents. But as I was reading my devotional book (“Prayer, Praise, and Promises” by Warren Wiersbe,) this morning, I was once again reminded that what God wants most from us are those things that He has NOT given us. Wiersbe…
Read MoreThe Futility of Fear
In 1933, shortly after becoming President of the United States, Franklin Delano Roosevelt boldly declared, “We have nothing to fear but fear itself!” He was wrong. As long as there are snakes, we have something else to fear! Do you know the name Eppie Lederer? I bet you do when I refer to her by…
Read MoreSeeing God’s Head At The Stoplight
Sitting as the first car at a stoplight this morning, my mind was drawn to the routine that all the drivers of the turning traffic seemed to be going through. I don’t know why my eyes focused on the people and why I started thinking about what those folk might be facing today. It was…

Read MoreOne Step Closer To Home
[Accra, Ghana] It’s Saturday afternoon and we are back in Accra. It always encourages us and, as Jeff Andler quipped, “I feel like we are close to home when we get back here.” It’s true. After 25 trips to Ghana getting back to the Capital city feels like we are almost home. I want to…

[Akuni, Ghana] It’s Wednesday as I write this blog. I awoke around 4:45 this morning to the peaceful sound of rain pelting upon the roof. (I could hear this clearly because the electricity had gone off sometime during the night.) Although it is less than ideal when the power is out, it was a blessing…
Read MoreI’ve Been To The Mountain Top!
[Adukrom, Ghana] It’s Tuesday in Ghana as I jot this note. Today saw some travel over some of the most rugged roads thus far on our project. From our guesthouse in Abonse we had to ascend to the ridge town of Adukrom for today’s ministry in various schools. The view from this place was spectacular,…
