The question is “where” not how much. 5 When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming toward him, he said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?” 6 He asked this only to test him, for he already had in mind what he was going to do. 7 Philip answered him, “Eight months’ wagesa… Read more →
You’ve probably asked God for clear direction maybe 1,000 times. I just finished an intense time of prayer over a week or so asking God where He would like me to go. I feel like I got two answers to my petition. Not bad. Now, admittedly they are subjective but maybe they will help you too. The first came when I saw… Read more →

They were chatting and I sat there thinking over my day. Sometimes it seems… Read more →
Acts 2:41 (NIV) 41 Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day. So, if eleven Apostles stood in the Jordan for 10 hours and baptized 1 person every 2.2 minutes then they could baptize all 3000 people in 10 hours. Can you imagine the workout dunking that many people! It… Read more →
This is the oddest thing I’ve seen today. It is still early, about 8:30AM so things could change but wow, I had no idea that evangelists had traveled to the Klingon empire. When did Wycliffe Bible Translators make it there? My geeky friend Jeff Jansen who works with Wycliffe (hear a sermon from him here in Singapore) might know about… Read more →
