Why give up your life?

You jump on a plane that leads you to a plane that will get you to another plane. This plane jumping continues for about 30 hours, mainly in the air just to reach your final destination.

ONE YEAR OLDER

My birthday was yesterday and I realized that I am one year older.  Funny how that works!  Each year God takes you through a journey that will grow you, teach you and allow you to gain more wisdom.  The older you are, the more life experience you have, and that can either be good or…

Life as a Missionary

I really wish I could sit here and tell you that living a life as a missionary is pretty simple, but the reality of it is that not everybody can do this.  Not everybody is willing to give up their comforts of life and walk by faith into the unknown, having to fully trust God…

He was dirty!

I jumped out of bed, gave a good stretch and headed to the shower to start my day.  It wouldn’t be a great start if I didn’t spend a little time with God.  So after getting ready, I headed outside to enjoy the back yard of the place I was staying.  I just sat there…

Thug Life!

I was looking for a place to do some photos, and as we pulled up to this parking lot, I noticed a few guys rolling up on their bikes.  The guy I was with said, let’s just sit in the car for a little bit because they could be little thugs looking to break in…
