10 Jan A New Season
It doesn’t seem possible but our two-year term with the IMB has come to an end. These two years have gone so fast and so slow. They have been the best of times and the worst of times. We have learned so much more about...

10 Jan Reflections on God Stories
As we come to our last month in Zambia with the IMB, I have been reflecting on the past two years. Culture, university students, prosperity gospel, church planting, leadership training, Covid, Zambia’s presidential election, Guesthouse, driving on the other side of the road, language, kidney...
10 Jan Time to Transition
July has been a very fruitful month for ministry in Zambia. We had 17 American students come to Lusaka and serve with our university ministry. The gospel was shared, students were discipled, our weekly fellowships doubled, and many were saved. The stories I continue to...
