MIDEAST UPDATE 3/11/2019 Is War Near?
This week is the eighth anniversary of the beginning of Syria’s civil war. One would think that the regime in Syria would be more than anxious for the end of the nightmare that the people of Syria have been going through.

MIDEAST UPDATE 12/10/2018 The Last Lap!
I am amazed how the talk of the imminent return of the Messiah has increased dramatically, even in just the last couple weeks. The expectation is high and growing.

MIDEAST UPDATE 8/30/2018 Souls Passing Into Eternity

As believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, we are well aware of the Great Commission found in Mark 16:15-20.

MIDEAST UPDATE 7/14/2018 “…and they did not love their lives to the death”
It goes without saying that for most of us, it is nearly impossible to picture for ourselves what the conditions really are where many missionaries serve in today’s world. This is certainly the case with the House of Blessing missionaries. The circumstances vary from place to place across the Middle East, but there are some constants. Every day is filled […]
