While in the modern country of Jordan in 2018, Rexanne and I had the opportunity to travel not only to Moab (central part) and Petra (southern part of the country), but north of Amman to the ancient cities of Gerasa and Gadara. Amman was very interesting in itself. The oldest part of the city is on a hilltop in the eastern part of modern Amman. It was known by various names, but during the time... Read More

Moses stands on the edge of the water, the Egyptian army is close behind – blinded by a cloud of dust God had created. Moses says to the frightened Israelites, “Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord!” God speaks to Moses, “Lift up your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, that the people of Israel may go through the sea on dry ground.”Such a dramatic scen...

Naomi’s life had become difficult. After she came to Moab with her husband and two boys, fleeing the drought in Bethlehem, her husband dies. Her two sons then marry Moabite women, a concern since Moabites worship the vicious false god Molech – who’s teaching sometimes required the sacrifice of children! After 10 years both her sons also die. She and her daughter’s-in-law are left without suppo... Read More

Of all the trips we’ve made, and all the walking we’ve done within them, none had us walking more than the trip we made to Italy in 2017. This was the one foreign trip that was not technically a “mission trip.” It was simply a place on the top of our bucket list for travel. Although this one was a “vacation,” we still tried to embed within it many aspects of ministry, learning from the history ... Read More

Several from Southern Heights Christian Church got the chance to do just that in 2016, as we worked a week of camp on the “Crow Creek” Lakota Reservation in South Dakota. It was in the month of June, the Moon of Good Berries. The ministry of Diamon... Read More

The plane had crossed over the Gulf of Mexico and now was nearing its destination. It veered left and started the decent, the runway now in sight. But there were hills and buildings on both sides, the narrow runway with a cliff at the end appeared too small! As the plane touched down the view through the portholes on the side of the airplane provided a dizzying display of whatever was over ther... Read More
