I have had several direct calls from the Middle East in the last week, each one more awe-inspiring than the one before it. I am afraid it is way too easy for those of us living in the West where life still has some semblance of normalcy, to see the rest of the world as something off of this planet. […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 9/1/2014
Time Running Out! I have more news to share after receiving another weekly call from Syria. One thing that becomes more apparent every week is the fact that time is running out. Most of us–even in the West, are getting at least some of the disturbing news from the Mideast and it is becoming increasingly obvious that there is a […]
CRUCIAL TIMES
Quite often in recent times I have experienced an urgency in my soul. This is one of those times so I must set aside everything else I have been working on and share some thoughts that are crowding my mind today, including what I believe is coming at us in our immediate future. As most of us know, we are […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 8/14/2014
“Greater Love Hath No Man” There are stories and then there are stories. Some are forgotten not long after they are read.

What happened when her son demanded that she deny Christ in front of close to 400 witnesses has been told […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, July 28, 2014
It is hard for me to believe that we are already well over half way through 2014. Time is moving faster all the time, it seems. I look back into the archives and reread some of the Mideast Updates from past months and it’s amazing to see what God has done in such a short period of time. A project […]
SPECIAL MIDDLE EAST UPDATE, 7/5/2014
Revelation 12:11 reads: They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. As I write this update today, it is Independency day in The United States of America, July 4. The details of this update were gathered from a couple […]
For Such A Time As This…
by Jake (please be sure to read all the way to the end. The story at the end, which by the way really happened less than 48 hrs. ago, is almost unbelievable.) Since having spent a few days in Jerusalem and because of this trip being the vehicle God used to put Anne and I in contact with our new […]
