Yesterday I happened to notice this balloon floating majestically in the sky above Bohunice. Actually there were two of them… a red one and a white one. As I took this snapshot, I started to think how the person or persons must have felt way up there above the earth. The temperature was very cool…
This article is about a discipline which, when I do it, enhances my life greatly. If you have been on a mission trip or have had missional training, I am sure you have heard of prayerwalking.

Please read this prayerfully. This article is not designed to condemn you but to challenge you… even as I challenge myself. Living here in Europe is much different than living in rural West Tennessee… in a lot of ways. Here I do a lot of walking and riding public transportation while back home I usually…
It seems strange to consider the memory of the 9-11 attacks when you are an American living away from home in a country that is foreign to you. Yet, that is what I am doing today. So much has changed in the world since that horrible day. The world sympathized with the US for a…
