Crusade concludes well… headed home now

Sunday, July 29th, 2007

Those living in darkness have seen a great light!
These were my opening words on Sunday night, as we continued in the theme of John 3:17-21 where the responsibility of man is to simply come out of darkness and accept His one and only Son. Before I go too deep into Sunday, Saturday has it’s [...]

Darkness Exposed. First Crusade Night

Saturday, July 28th, 2007

I don’t want to come right out and blow my own horn, and so I won’t, but I really want to share with you a confidence about how the first night at the crusade turned out. For me, my job was to deliver a word that will bring hope to people surrounded by darkness. I [...]

Last Leg

Saturday, July 28th, 2007

Ok, so this is it! We are already in one night of the three night crusade. The crusdade is held in a cow pasture that has been converted into a “crusade” type of atmosphere. Around 3,000 showed up (men, woman, and children). The theme for the weekend is “shining the light [...]

Only God Churches in India?

Thursday, July 26th, 2007

When I talk to pastors here in Tamil Nadu, they say, why not!
I was able to share the testimony of our church in the States, Living Hope with the pastors during the conference last week, and I have this video segment that shows at least part of what I was able to share. I also [...]

Pray for the Madhuranthagam Crusade

Tuesday, July 24th, 2007

Hi all.
We are counting down now and everything is coming together just in time it seems.
I have a great amount of faith in what is about to transpire at the crusade… principalities confronted, darkness exposed, the light shone, appeals made to the people, and most of all for the miracle of salvation to sweep the [...]

India Orphans

Monday, July 23rd, 2007

Wow, yesterday was a day to remember for a long time. After getting up early and attempting to have an American style breakfast, we began our day to visit orphaned kids in various settings. The first one wasn’t really a “orphanage.” They’re called “gypsies” and they are a community of people that [...]

Four Dark Corners of Life in India

Monday, July 23rd, 2007

In preparing for the crusade messages, I came across these areas of darkness that will, through this post and in my message, be exposed by the light.
It is amazing that man could ever love the darkness over the light when you think about the details of darkness, but that is the paradigm isn’t it. [...]

New Videos on Website Now

Saturday, July 21st, 2007

Hi friends and supporters!
We spent some time getting a comprehensive interview video done with Josh that really puts the entire flow together of what has happened over the last three years. It really is a summary worth hearing, and a good way to get to know my ministry partner, Joshua.

Andrew Imprisoned while Preaching!

Thursday, July 19th, 2007

It had to happen sooner or later.
The Indian government still has pockets of influence in many localities where those hostile to the gospel (aka the RSS) can direct the police and make life on the road difficult for missionaries. Well, all that is true, but it is not exactly what happened to Andrew.
You have [...]

Perseverance

Wednesday, July 18th, 2007

Perseverance is defined as: Steady persistence in a course of action, a purpose, a state, despite difficulties or obstacles.
This word is a key to working in the ministry field. By far one of the most important on my top five, and i bet most others would agree. Persevering is a part [...]
