Simply ChurchTowards the end of last year, we had the privilege of hosting a young Indian couple in our home. For security reasons, I will call them YM and Joy. They are seeing a remarkable move of God happening in their area. One afternoon, I sat down and interviewed them. The following few blogs will be… Read More
Over Christmas I was asked by a friend, "How do you find good blogs to read?" Although I have not done much on this blog recently, I have been reading the blogs of other people and there is some really good stuff out there.

I just finished re-reading “There’s a Sheep in My Bathtub” by Brian Hogan. This new book chronicles the Hogan family’s missionary adventures in Mongolia during the 1990’s when they saw a church planting movement begin. It is a gripping story that is hard to put down.
