Five years ago when I began writing the Mideast Update (originally called Jerusalem Updates), I would never have believed that I would still have the privilege of writing these updates today. Here we are, already one third of the way through the year 2017. Quite often I find myself looking back, remembering so many stories of the miracles, the sovereign […]
WHERE IS THAT WOLF? Part 5
One of the most troubling conflicts today is the one between Israel and the Palestinians. Here in Part 5, although I don’t intend to offer a clever solution that has eluded world leaders for decades, I would like to detail some truths that the mainstream media is not including in the discussion of the problem. I will also go a […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 4/12/2017
It is amazing how quickly changes are happening all across the globe today. The epicenter of the entire earth however will continue to be in the Middle East until our Lord, the KING of Kings, comes to take control for His promised 1,000 year millennial reign. The fallen Lucifer knows the Bible and is well aware that the Jewish people […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 4/1/2017
Many times in these updates I have mentioned how great a miracle it is for every single soul that is reached with the Gospel news pronouncing that man can have the assurance of forgiveness and the promise of an eternity in God’s heaven. Those of us that have grown up raised in a church where this was taught, may take […]
HEADED HOME!
For those that are not aware of it, my wife and I have been on an extended trip to the Middle East. Some, who have not been aware of our trip, have wondered at the lack of new articles being written. We will be back in our home State of Oregon in the United States late Tuesday evening, March […]

In the last few days we had requests for special prayer for Pastor R, founder of the House of Blessing. I have received a short phone call with some new information to share. As most regular readers already know, Pastor R had an emergency procedure due to a heart attack he had suffered. I don’t know details though it sounds […]
UPDATE ON PASTOR R
There has not been much new news about Pastor R, but he did come through the surgery well, and as of last night was resting well. Recuperation will of course take some time. As of yet, I don’t know details of the emergency surgery that he had to have. As soon as I have any news at all, I will […]

Greetings all in the Name of Jesus: I just learned that Pastor R has had a heart attack and urgent prayer is needed from us all. I do not know details as of yet, but as most know, he is in the Damascus metropolitan area. At this time, it is crucial we hold him up in earnest prayer. Pastor […]
MIDEAST UPDATE Part 2 3/12/2017
In an update a few days ago, it was reported that in some locations within Syria there are often several military entities within hand-grenade distance of one another. Because of this, a small force of Americans has been deployed into the Manbij area. Their task is to ensure that the different parties in the area don’t attack each other–especially Turkish […]
STORY FROM SYRIA, Mideast Update, Part 1 3/10/2017
The stories relayed from the HOB missionaries in Syria and Iraq oftentimes seem to be perfect application of the teachings of Jesus 2000 years ago. The faith of these missionaries is incredible and their trust in His faithfulness is unwavering. The story told here is one that can build our faith and our trust in Him. It applies the truth […]
