Precious in His eyes
You matter. You belong. You are valuable. You are loved. You are wanted. How often do we want to hear those words? How often do we crave even the smallest encouragement that tells us we matter? I think everyone at some point can relate to that in some way, that wanting to be seen and […]
Resurrection At Work
Meet Adam. That’s not really his name, but for the sake of this blog and his privacy, it is today. I met Adam about 10 months ago when he first arrived at the children’s home Senderos de Amor. Adam was attempting to cross the U.S. – Mexico border for the 2nd time in his life […]
Remain in God, our Source of life.
The school year just began for us, and many young people and children have moved from the Bordos, because of the danger that surrounds them. I cannot deny it, it is painful to see them leave because that child, or young man or adult represents a brother or a sister whom we have shared so […]
New Seasons Bring New Ideas
“I can do all this through him who gives me strength.” Philippians 4:13 “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9 “You are my friends if you do what I […]
God’s Blueprint
God is great and He is doing amazing things. Not just here in Honduras but I know back in the good ol’ U.S.A. as well. It seems like this would be a great time for me to sum up and celebrate what great things have happened in 2016. But I’m not going to do that. […]
The Mother of all Mothers
Nope, this post is not about my momma. HOWEVER she is, to me, the best mother in the world. And this post is most definitely not about me and my inept ability to love surrendered and abandoned children in Honduras. This post is not about Kate and her 8, or Saint and North’s mom. This […]
The Power of God
It is inspirational to see the personal and spiritual growth that is occurring in the lives of people living in the Bordos! In spite of the highs and lows, losses and injustices, which hurt more than imagined, God is faithful and His word comforts us. But every new program, lesson or opportunity given, would be […]
Demonstrating El Roi
Being able to spend time and disciple girls in the Bordos community and local children’s homes is such a blessing. Getting to build relationships with my girls on a personal level while teaching them God’s truth is something I love to do and is so rewarding. But I would be lying if I said it […]
A Year Later
Can you believe it?! Oh how things can change in just one year! Just one year ago, we decided to take a huge leap of faith. Just one year ago, we said our kids deserved better. Just one year ago, many of you know we took a huge step in our organization when we opened […]
Unhurried Time With God
I rarely go to the States. It’s not that I try to avoid traveling or going up north. It’s not fear of the cold. (I haven’t worn a jacket in years) But Honduras is home. I love being with my wife and our twins. I’m energized daily by the mission God has given us here. […]
