This site was looking a bit bland, so I went on an online treasure hunt and found this scenic shot. I believe it is somewhere in the Colorodo Rockies. My source for any electronic computing and Internet use is limited to my trips to any public library which fits my travel schedule during the week. Therefore, there has been a considerable lack of original, personal photographs since last year sometime. Not that anyone is about to notice. My ambition for promoting my blog doesn't meet the Budweiser commercial grade. Sorry 'bout that.

Perspectives on the World Christian Movement at Grace Community Church has been underway since January 10. With the information that hasn't reached this blog yet, Perspectives has been part of that block of data. The words of Christ in Matthew 9:37-38 find me quite often. Workers are few. And while that is true, the gospel compels and convicts the average Christian to answer the call. To do as Jesus did, and to do as he commanded. Acts 1:8 is convicting as much as the reponse to it is inspiring. I pray that this course continues to help me engage in the Lord's will.


The gospel must be heard all around the globe. Every nation and all peoples must hear in oder to repond, yea or nay, to the name of Jesus. This is convicting me. Christ calls me whereever I am. He calls others likewise. He calls you.

Pondering the will of God, I wonder now what to do. Much praying is involved, but more is needed. In the Perspectives course I read about a young Christian man who desired to help the pastor David Wilkerson on the streets of New York with the gangs and drug addicts in the 1970s.

Wilkerson asked the young man, "How much do you pray each day?"
"About twenty minutes," said the man.
"Go home, young man," said Wilkerson. "Pray two hours per day and then come back. I can't send you out on the streets on twenty minutes per day."

Wilkerson expressed the need for much prayer, for with minimal spiritual equiping, he said to the young man, death would be certain. And it is true.

And with that, I say, Lord, let's talk!
