New Requests

I am looking into the new year with anticipation.  Here are some things you can join me in seeking the Father about:

 1. A private space to rent and use for counseling & community classes. I am thinking of starting some women's trauma group counseling/classes, as well as a Seeking Safety class, along with individual counseling as the doors open. A private, affordable, and safe place for people to come is needed. 

 2. I plan to go to two strategic villages each week to do story telling and develop relationships. I am praying about who my companion should be.  I have a few options, but want THE person the Father has in mind. I am seeking and asking Him for discernment as who to ask to join me.  I know the Father sent His men out 2 by 2 and I want to follow this principle as well. 

 3.  There are a few people I am looking to start di$cipleship talks with in the next few months. Please pr*y for words and wisdom as I approach them on this topic.  Pr8 the Father helps us to work out a time and a schedule that can work for both of us. May He take us all deeper in knowing Him this year.

 4.  Each week I set apart a day for pr*yer and fasting.  On this day, I am seeking for revelation and breakthrough for this country and the plans the Father has to reach them.  I am asking specifically for words, miracles, and the supernatural to draw the lost to Him. 

 5. As always there is a list of people that I am talking with and pr*ying over.  Join me in asking the Father to continue to woo their hearts and draw him unto them.  The list grows each week, and I am thankful for the many opportunities to meet new people and share the great love of the Father G*d.

Pr*yer is effective and powerful. It really does MOVE the MOUNTAIN! I am thankful to have you standing with me!

The Bhindi or “Tikka” Mark on the Head- What is it?

Image
(Pooja tikka mark) Many westerners have asked me what the Bhindi or red “tikka” mark means or why I am willing to wear it as a Chri$tian. Many people associate this mark with H!nduism. In my contextualization classes we were taught about finding the difference between culture and religion. The scripture is clear that we don’t want to do anything to compromise our Chri$tian faith and values. At the same time the go$pel is full of the liberties that Chri$t brought to us through the cross. We are no longer obligated to religious practices and rituals. Chri$t fulfilled the law. As we work with non-believers we don’t want to make Chri$tianity another religion. We don’t want to make following Chri$t more difficult than it has to be. Following Je$us doesn’t have to mean abandoning culture, it just has to mean abandoning any other faith or practices of that faith. As teachers, we have to help our disciples find this difference as they come to follow the Father more and more. We don

But God...

Every Knee Will Bow And Every Tongue Will Confess Truly everywhere we look is need- physical, emotional, financial, and spiritual. I see the man with elephantitis lift his giant leg to shift his position as he sits on a mat begging for money on the side of the road. I see a woman sitting on a patch of grass on the edge of a busy highway practicing her meditation attempting to find her inner peace. I see a young girl on her way to school stop to touch the street cow and then touch her own forehead in hopes that her Hindu practices will reap the blessing from her god (cow). Simultaneously, I see a shop keeper allow the giant cow to mosey along his street front restaurant; he even offers the cow freshly made roti (bread) as to not offend his “god” passing by. I see another person practicing yoga with all the pristine positions and poses. Her breaths are well practiced, yet her face is stricken with the look of anxiety and distress.  I see a young man who was

The ugliness I sometimes see

Image
We returned home today, August 18th, to the vastly different country that I now call "home". The things I so easily become immune to while living here rage their ugly heads whenever I return. It’s a mini culture shock and re-initiation if you will. I watched from my hotel window as a woman outside bathed her child in brown water. They live in an uncompleted brick shack with holes and a plastic sheet roof that monsoon has mostly destroyed already. Besides the beauty in the color of the scraps of clothes they are wearing there is nothing beautiful to the sight. No running water, no comforts to enjoy- simply day to day survival. My heart broke as I watched her. I looked down to my own sleeping baby tucked away in a nice crib with clean sheets and clean clothes. Sin is a horrible thing! It’s mared the world God created and his original beauty designed. It’s brought sickness, poverty, and brokenness. My heart aches for this woman, and at the same time rejoices in the
