As I look back at the updates of the last few weeks, I reread account after account of missionaries giving their lives for the sake of the Gospel. In the last three years that I have been writing these updates, there have been approximately 700 House of Blessing missionaries that have been martyred. Just days ago, nine of Mafidah’s widows […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 6/7/2015
In Matthew 24:9: we find Jesus predicting things to come for the Church Age: Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. Then many false prophets will rise up and […]
CRUCIAL MIDEAST UPDATE, May 17, 2015
Over the past three years, I have become used to receiving calls from the Middle East; calls telling me of some of the most amazing happenings. Then in the same call or a day or two later, I hear the stories of HOB missionaries who paid with their lives for daring to share the love of God for the human […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 3/23/2015
Jesus had a way of doing things that often struck people as odd. One of these times was with a miracle He performed on a blind man in John 9:1-12. Here is how the account reads: Now as Jesus passed by, He saw a man who was blind from birth. And His disciples asked him, saying, “Rabbi, who sinned, this […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 3/15/2015
In 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 we find these words penned by the Apostle Paul: We are not giving up. How could we! Even though on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding grace. These hard times are small potatoes […]
“SUDDENLY!” Part 10, (Apocalyptic Red Horse & Rider)
I have spent more time on the “Suddenly” series of articles than originally intended, but due to many questions in the previous weeks, I feel more in depth information is warranted. Our world is changing much more quickly than most are aware of. I heard someone say the other day that it would be much easier to keep one’s head […]
