The Last ____________?

Dear friends, I can almost guarantee you that your children and grandchildren can fill in the blank! Ok, maybe you can too and perhaps some of you have your tickets for Friday?  People are standing in lines waiting to hand over their hard-earned cash! My body has never darkened the doors of a “Star Wars”…

Let’s be thankful disciples!

Dear friends, “Rejoice always; pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus!” Thanksgiving isn’t a once-a-year celebration for anyone who calls themselves a disciple of the Lord Jesus. It should be a daily reality! I can almost hear someone somewhere saying, “Glen, you have no idea about what I…

Baptisms, Myanmar

Dear friends, I just returned from almost three weeks in Myanmar.  I want to thank you for praying and my trip was incredible!  I will share a little on Sunday and show a few pictures during my sermon intro! I also want to let you know that we will be having around 12 baptisms second…

Law and Grace

Dear Brothers and Sisters, Earlier this year, I got an envelope in the mail.  These days, when you get physical mail, people get excited about it.  This one though, wasn’t such a good one to receive.  Yes, I know, I should do my civic service as a citizen of this country, but I was being…

Today, questions abound afresh but answers are few and far between. What we can do is pray as,…

Back to the Bible!

Dear friends, Patty and I were waiting to board a plane from London Heathrow to Harare, Zimbabwe several years ago. I saw a young man who was also waiting and reading his Bible.  I said, “You don’t really believe what you are reading do you?”  He said, “yes sir I do!” I said something like,…

Asked Any Questions Recently?

Dear sojourners, Life is full of questions!  Some are trivial, some essential and some indispensable!  How would you answer this question?  What kind of people go to “heaven” if indeed such a place exists?  A common answer is, “good people go to heaven.”  The logic flows something like this:  There is a good God who…

Work, work work

Dear brothers and sisters, What do these sayings all have in common? Chop your own wood; it will warm you twice. Genius is ninety percent perspiration and ten percent inspiration. Give assistance not advice in a crisis. If you want something done right, do it yourself. Never put off until tomorrow what can be done…
