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, 5/11/2015

Today there are numerous organizations claiming to be representatives of Jesus Christ, yet not all truly live up to the standards of the “Cross”!  Ministries everywhere compete for donations, but most have a high percentage of funds going to pay for overhead. All claim to be Christ’s ambassadors on Earth but not all really live up to the standards of […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 5/3/2015

While receiving my weekly phone call out of Syria from Pastor R*****, I was reminded of a passage of Scripture in Philippians: For I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 4/28/2015

In a quickly changing Middle East, each nation is trying to deal with the facts on the ground from one day to the next. It is the same for the Christian missionaries on the front lines. In my latest calls from House Of Blessing, I have had it confirmed that HOB is breaking into four segments so that there is […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 4/17/2015

Just a few moments before I received my call from House of Blessing this week, I was reading a passage of Scripture in 1 Peter which reads: But the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers. And above all things have fervent love for one another, for ‘love will cover a multitude […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 2/25/2015

Many of you know that the mideast has been hit with one brutal winter storm after another.  It is hard enough for a person under normal circumstances, but for those who are caught in the chaos of what has been going on in the Middle East, it has been insufferable. Last year was difficult as well. Many of you saw […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 2/15/2015

I was out of my hometown at the time of my last update from the Middle East. As I took the call while visiting the Oregon Coast, I was walking through a neighborhood that is located right up next to the mighty Pacific Ocean, the largest ocean on our planet. After prayer and our goodbye, I could not help but […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 2/8/2015

The last two weeks has proven to be harrowing in many ways for House of Blessing, and for its leadership. I would like to share a Scripture that fits the situation well before sharing a few details. In  2 Corinthians 4:7-15 we find these words penned by the Apostle Paul: But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the […]

MIDEAST UPDATE: 1/27/2015

After my latest phone call from House Of Blessing out of one of the huge refugee camps in Syria I could not help but think of some Scriptures that speak to the relationship we as representatives of the Kingdom of God have with both the redeemed as well as the lost all around us. I thought I might start this […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 1/2/2015

I would like to begin this update by saying thank you to the many readers who have followed this story, some from the very beginning of this project at the end of March 2012. It has been an incredible saga, a story that can only be told in its fullness when we find ourselves in the presence of our Messiah, […]
