A church sponsored team was detained at the Haiti/DR border and charged with child trafficking for trying to take thirty-three children to safety without proper documentation. I …[ read more ]

    It’s that time again. All of us who love the Lord will wrestle with the coming season. How best to honor this time we’ve chosen to celebrate the human birth of the Son of God?

    Lori, Our Lord never ceases to amaze.. you have succeeded in disturbing this Hobbit! I have been struggling with spiritual apathy and indifference recently and reading your witty, convicting, engaging, infuriating writings has helped me to realize that I am in good company. They have also given me the kick-start I need to get off my laurels! Keep looking up..keep going on for the Lord dear sister-in-Christ!
