August was an emotional month for us. Though there were wonderful things that God did (as he always does), a tragic experience left our missionary team saddened in its wake. We wanted to share this with you, not so that you would be filled with sadness, but that you might sense our hearts for the…

Each color on this map depicts about half the world’s population. John 3:16 speaks of God’s love for the world. By “the world”, we understand it to mean “people”. God is intimately interested in people. Lots of them. Over 7 billion of them. For even “the hairs on our head are numbered”. He is…

Her mother turned to drugs and is now an addict. On top of that, she has recently been struck with comprehensive meningitis. A terrible story.…

One year ago this month a massive earthquake (read blog here) rocked the region near Orphan Home outreach center, killing nearly 400 people. It was a tragedy. But in the midst of ashes, God always makes a way to share the light of the gospel. In the midst of ashes, God always makes a way…

Here’s something we love: urban college student ministry overlap that blesses an orphan home and center for underprivileged children!

“The end is near. It’s time to be risky. It’s time to take chances.” Our Within Reach Global missionary just texted me today. She has been living in the urban jungle of Southwest China.

“They beat him up! They kicked him,” they cried. We held each others’ shoulders in sadness. “They beat up our beloved brother!” Our van bumped along the winding dirt paths leading up to an unreached people group that we have been targeting for almost 10 years. The banana plantations dotted the valley landscape through…

It had been a rather hot day in a mountainous region. My heart was overwhelmed with thankfulness for this new life I’ve found…
