a beautiful hermeneutic [hur-muh-noo-tik]

I got to spend some quality time with the kids in Java Thanda on Tuesday. We taught them how to play "Duck Duck Goose", "Simon Says", and they taught us an awesome game where you have to guess who the leader is in a mob of kids and if you get it wrong, you have to either sing or dance in front of everyone.

The bathroom and the dumpster are all the street. The roads are terrible and the building are all half finished. Regardless of the conditions in which these people live, they are some of the most amazing and kind hearted people you wi

Jesus paid it all all to him I owe sin had left a Crimson stain He washed it white as snow We are off. We pray for the Harvest, Peace, and reconciliation.

Our trip to India is only 11 days away. God is already moving and doing some amazing stuff in our lives. When I have a couple of minutes to write more, I will. This is a video I edited from the last e3 trip to Banjara-land. This will give you an idea of where we are going.   For His glory
