Super hero Jesus
Our church is reading through the Bible over the course of two years. I’ve just finished the book of John. Have you ever read something in the Bible that you’d read many, many times before and it hits you fresh—you see it in a new way? That happened to me while I was reading John…

Our Brothers and Sisters Around the World
Most of the time we wear blinders. Like a horse focused on getting to the next place, we trot along in life intent on the job at hand. With our limited focus, it’s natural and easy to forget about others and their needs, especially those far away with whom we have little interaction. But some…

Where in the World is Dwayne?
Whirlwind! That’s the word that comes to mind when I think of the recent weeks! Dwayne and I drove to Little Rock, SC where he gave a missions report to Little Rock Baptist Church about our international outreaches. This small church contributes in a big way to Kingdom Air Corps’ work in both Russia and…

A few days ago in our March newsletter, we announced the good news that we’d been granted permission to replace 11-year-old canvas tent structures with wooden cabins for our Brooks Range Bible Camp. This camp is…

Living for God in our Upside-down World
On impulse this morning, I asked Google whether there has ever been a day in human history when a war did not rage somewhere on earth? I found an article published by the New York Times in 2003, “What Every Person Should Know About War.” The author, Chris Hedges, states: “Of the past 3,400 years,…

Valentine’s Day
God’s love. What does it look like? It’s not the hormone-driven affection between two sweethearts, although that is how it is often portrayed. In my experience, God’s love looks more like this: A mother quitting her lucrative job to stay home with a child who needs to be home schooled; a father turning down a…

Blessing Upon Blessing
A hundred people helped themselves to the platters of grilled salmon, transported from the rivers of Alaska to Longview, Texas for the special occasion. Their surprise and delight brought a smile to our faces. This was the Kingdom Air Corps’ dinner of appreciation for those LeTourneau University students, faculty, alumni, and friends who have worked…

LeTourneau Go Week
Teams in khakis and matching mission shirts put the finishing touches on their display tables, setting their tabletop materials in place, raising their organizational banners, and fanning out colorful brochures. They occasionally stopped to shake a hand or hug a friend passing by. As the hand of the wall clock touched 8:00 on that Monday…

Avionics Week!
No more crackling radio transmissions! No more asking the air traffic controller to “Say, again?” And no more asking, “Have you got me now?” Last Fall, in our quarterly newsletter, we made the request for new avionics equipment for our training aircraft. Our good God is answering our prayers in a wonderful way! This week,…

Embracing the Winter
We all face that day after the celebration. Whether it’s the holidays, a birthday, an anniversary, or a special visit with friends or family, the much-anticipated time is soon over, and we are left with our photos and our memories. We fall into bed, exhausted, and our alarm wakes us too early. It’s time to…
