…and My glory I will not give to another nor my praise to carved idols. Isaiah 42:8b
We often hear about the ‘Glory of God’, so let us take a moment to consider what the glory of God is. As it is the Glory of God, it is something only God […]
Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. These are the words that kicked off the ministry of both John the Baptist (Matthew 3:2) and Jesus (Matthew 4:17). Although I knew this, the Lord really highlighted it to me again this week – and then as I studied it – I felt the […]
We have often heard the saying, “Large doors swing open on small hinges.” As we step into the new year, what are the small adjustments we need to make that will allow us to walk through the doorways and embrace all that God has purposed to open for us? The question is important […]

A number of years ago, while living on a small farm in South Africa, my mom was visiting us from Durban. As always, these times were very precious. We were all relaxed, enjoying our time together, when suddenly, we heard some gun shots. They were very close to our home. Ken and […]
Many years ago, the Lord spoke clearly to us about going to Taiwan for an outreach. The cost in those days was about R11 000 (South African monetary exchange), but we didn’t have the money. We saved what we could, and as the time came nearer, we only had R700, but we knew […]
