Cyprus has decided that every person who has a bank account should forfeit amounts up to almost 10% of what you own. This has transpired because […]
Passing the Baton – The Jungle Missionary
Dear DefCon Friends, First, thank you ever so much for your prayers and all the letters of encouragement we have received in light of our revised plans due to my on-going health issues.

How to stagnate the church: A dictator’s manual.
Dear atheistic, communistic dictator: Having trouble with that dastardly underground church spreading like wild fire? No matter how much you seize, imprison, torture, and execute those Christians, the church still keeps flourishing? Christians getting in the way of your nation’s “progressive” progress? Looking for a way to stamp out the spread of Christianity in your […]
Letter from a Recent West African Convert
Dear Friends, I would like to share a very special letter that I received this past Sunday.

Conrad Mbewe: “Africa’s rural areas are in desperate need of the true gospel.”
An excerpt from Conrad Mbewe’s article, Africa’s rural areas are in desperate need of the true gospel. “What struck me the most, however, was that while in Lusaka we are falling over each other to plant more and more Reformed Baptist churches, our trip in rural Zambia showed an almost complete absence of any evangelical witness, […]

Execution – The Punishment for Faith in Christ
Well, the Muslims are at it again. Once again, they prove to the world that they are NOT the peace-loving people they claim to be. Their arrogance and hatred of Israel and Christians is shown clearly in recent news. Our government is wrong for allowing the Iranian president to come to this country to use […]
Starbucks at the Expense of Gospel Outreach?
As our family continues down the road, I never cease to be amazed at those who tell us, “Oh, I could never do what you are doing!” Or, they may comment, “Lord bless you, but that type of work is definitely not for me!” Similar phrases normally revolve around the lack of amenities that are […]
Reaching the Remote!
This last Saturday was a major blessing for our family as we had the privilege of meeting a brother and sister in Christ who live in Western Colorado. We met first at a restaurant and then were invited to their home where they unveiled to us a series of devices that will allow us to […]
The Three Most Dangerous Words …
It’s a girl. Of course, history is full of such reports. But it’s easy to push history from one’s mind. How horrible – and that mother who killed 8 girls. May God have mercy. We must remember – with all the feminists attacks against Christianity – the religion of the One True God is the […]

If these […]
Are they inferior or equal?
During the brief months since we returned from our mission trip to Liberia, West Africa, we have been blessed with the places we have visited and the people we have met. Each church has been more than generous even though we have never asked for a single penny in any of them, and the bulk […]
What receiving the Bible in your native tongue for the first time looks like.
Rejoice with me and be greatly encouraged (and deeply convicted) by watching this video of the Kimyal tribe receiving the New Testament in their language for the first time on March 16, 2010. Quote from the video: “We [in the West] have no idea. We have had the Word of God for so long. We […]

What Happens If……? — Part 3
The scene is all too common. Bell-ringers for the Salvation Army stand outside shopping centers and supermarkets waiting for the pots to ring with their yearly intake of funds. Standing a little further out, people dressed in poor clothing walk up and down speaking with those coming out of the stores with bags of full […]
What Happens If……?
There are many mission organizations in the world today. In fact, we are currently visiting the Colorado Springs area where there are several hundred para-church organizations based. What is the purpose of these groups? They are involved in medical work, education endeavors, humanitarian aid, etc., etc., etc., but are they truly accomplishing the Great Commission? […]
