This month’s picture comes from the church planting effort in the Dominican Republic. This is a relatively new church plant; the building was constructed with the efforts and resources of the local Christians. The work is totally overseen and supported by the elders of a church in the region. [Click picture to enlarge.]
Ministry and mission work is a team effort -- Jan and I have shared ministry and mission work for over 50 years! Countless people have encouraged us, supported us, loved us, and prayed for us. In addition to the customary "Brother Bob" or "Hermano Bob," I am also known as dad and papa in my family. One of my favorite breakfasts is huevos fritos, frijoles, and tortillas, with hot sauce and a cup of rich Colombian coffee! The greatest joy of my life is being part of the kingdom; my #1 priority is to advance "kingdom things" and to help develop authentic "kingdom people." I seek to share the good news about Jesus everywhere I go, helping people find Jesus and helping people mature as disciples of Jesus. One of the greatest blessings of my life is to be loved by people around the world!
DAILY DEVOTIONAL READINGS
A New Testament devotional series is available on this website (link on right menu bar). There are 260 devotionals available--a devotional thought for each chapter of the New Testament. Each of the devotionals is based on a chapter of the text to be read, but there is also a shorter alternate reading along with thoughts and reflections which summarize the content of the chapter and a prayer. The New Testament can be read in a calendar year by using five devotionals each week for 52 weeks.
