The Refining Process
The gospel is confrontational. Just this week while having coffee with a friend, I was discussing the fact that there is never really a time when the gospel is not confrontational. Unfortunately in America, it is sometimes fairly simple to present a “gospel” message that seems harmless and is relatively easy to accept and claim. … Continue reading The Refining Process
Confess Your Sin Part 2
“If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a … Continue reading Confess Your Sin Part 2
Why I Love Volunteer Missions Teams
In 2004 I discovered Jesus. I discovered that Jesus was everything I had been desiring; I discovered that He met my every need. That truth has not changed, I just have to often remind myself of His sufficiency. That same summer of 2004, I prayed for a team of students who were spreading the gospel … Continue reading Why I Love Volunteer Missions Teams
Confess Your Sin
First world luxury. Some of us have a lot of it, and can’t live without it. Some of us have never seen it.

Even though I am … Continue reading Experience, Proclaim, Rejoice

I really like bikes. I really want a bike. Bikes are everywhere in this town. I almost equally enjoy walking the streets here in Arezzo; in all of Italy really. Walking is good for the body. So is riding bikes. I wish that where I lived in America it was more acceptable to walk around … Continue reading Bicycle Cycles
Castles aren’t America, but fences are.
Today we visited Poppi, Italy. This castle sits at the top of the hill in Poppi.This is one of many reasons that I love Europe. I am a nerd. I love history. I could have stayed in this castle all day, but Charlie made me leave. I also remembered today that I have a subconscious fear … Continue reading Castles aren’t America, but fences are.
Interesting Happenings
Today has been a day of many interesting happenings. My day began with finding a scorpion in the bathroom, right next to my foot. Do I even need to continue? Charlie was just telling me the other night about finding a few scorpions in the house a few months back. He hadn’t seen any since then. … Continue reading Interesting Happenings
