    If God Called You to a War Zone, Would You Go? A Review of “Free Burma Rangers”

    What if God called you to leave your comfortable life in the US to help people in some of the most perilous places in the world?  What if He said this wasn’t a short-term mission trip. He was asking you to move to Myanmar? or Iraq? or Syria? What if he told you to raise…

  • The first half of 2018…what the heck does it mean to be healthy anyway?

    It’s hard to stay healthy in certain seasons of life – isn’t it? To me, May is right up there with Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the Super Bowl. In our home, it’s a month that is filled with birthdays, Mother’s Day, graduation parties, sports-viewings (so many sports), end of school events, city festivals…the list goes on…
