We are off and running as we enter what is already a tiring week. Sunday night Rev. Evan Drake, president of our mission, began a three-night series of meetings about the biblical family. Families are just as dysfunctional here as they are in the U. S. Each night’s meetings were very well attended and he [...]

But it was a good one. As I’ve mentioned, we have some of our leaders here this weekend from the Bible Basics home office. The reason they chose this particular time was to participate in the celebration of Dr. Glen Solomon’s 50 years in the ministry. Dr. Solomon is president of Baptist Ministries of Honduras, [...]
Tomorrow is the big day! Well, it’s another big day, anyway. We have lots of them here. We’re getting ready for a visit from our founding president of Bible Basics International, Dr. Eugene Priddy; our current president, Rev. Evan Drake; the vice president of International Ministries, Rev. Herman Meister; and BBI’s Spanish director, Rev. Samuel [...]

This is an unusual type of blog entry for me today and I’m including a different kind of video. While we were in Tampa this past spring, I had the wonderful privilege of giving the Sunday message at our home church, Candlewood Community. Since that was Palm Sunday, I wanted to deal with the subject, [...]
No, I’m not going to school, unless you count the school of hard knocks. “Phd” stands for “Piled higher and deeper.” That’s what it feels like so far this week. As you probably know, if you’ve been keeping up with our blog, we got the computer changes made for the updated FM broadcast computer. That [...]

Peter and I were hard at work after midnight this morning. Yesterday was the day we’d set for installing the “new” refurbished FM computer. It would have been much easier if we actually could have installed it. I use the term “‘new’ refurbished” because none of the computers for our dual language project are new. [...]

In the early years of modern missions, the philosophy seemed to be that, when entering a new mission field, the first task was to westernize the local population before focusing on sharing the actual Gospel. Thankfully, we have grown a little wiser over the years in that regard. But the loss of heritage in any [...]

Tegus — that’s short for Tegucigalpa, the capital city of Honduras. It’s pronounced Te-goose. The trip last Wednesday to Tegus went very well. I got all our business done with the lawyers and at the immigration office. The flights over and back were spectacular. When you’re cruising at an altitude of only 10-11,000 feet and [...]

This week, as Peter and I sat down to record the HRGS Update, we wondered what we would talk about. We felt like last week was such an uneventful week that we would not have much in the way of news for our listeners. Having been slowed down with some kind of bug that showed [...]

I had some fun throwing together this little video of my trip to Utila. I left Friday afternoon right after finishing Request & Dedication. I got to Utila at about supper time. The first order of business, of course, was transportation. My friend Lance Bodden helped me out as always with an ATV. Then I [...]

Remember the old Gene Kelly song, “Singin’ in the Rain?” If so, you’re kind of showing your age. I have always enjoyed being out in the rain, as long as I can stay reasonably dry, but I admit that I liked it better when I was a kid. Of course, when you have work to [...]

We had a mostly glorious week this past week with one major exception. You’ll remember Travis and Emily Mitten who had to return to the U.S. because of Emily’s incredibly difficult pregnancy. We learned last Wednesday that they lost the baby. She is still carrying it and and we are all praying that her body [...]
