It has been a joy and blessing to spend these past few weeks at home with my family in Kansas. As we reflected on 2014 and all God had allowed and accomplished, all we could say was "To God be the glory, great things He hath done!" 

 

I am excited about the ministry opportunities the Lord has placed before us in 2015. The first half of this year will be spent, Lord willing, in Seattle, North Carolina, China, Moldova, and Saipan. One of these trips will contain risk for all involved; please pray! Click here for our itinerary. 

Our family dynamic is changing this year as well. Our youngest daughter, Jacquie, is completing high school. Our oldest daughter, Courtney, is now engaged and preparing for marriage to a godly young man, Daniel Hulbert (pictured above on the left).

 

A reminder for this year ahead: We cannot save our life, we can only spend it. A life spent for Jesus, the Christ, is a life well spent. The Great Commission must be our goal for it is the heartbeat of Christ. It is for His great cause we lose (give) our life. Jesus Himself gave us this encouraging promise . . . in giving our life, we shall find it.   

 

May we be found faithful to God, His Word, His local church, and His Great Commission in 2015. May He come quickly, but until then, may we be about our Father's business.
