When You Build a Home, Plant a Tree.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Romans 12:2 I still remember my first time in South Sudan. It wasn’t even South Sudan yet, it was still just Sudan. We went out to the ancestral village of a church planter we were working with. He pointed to a tree standing alone…

When They Are Serving Toast, Make Curry
When They Are Serving Toast, Make Curry
Curry is good. That is my opinion anyway. Some might disagree with me. It’s complex and flavorful. It can be spicy. If it’s hot enough it might make you cry, but if you love curry you’ll take a swig of milk and continue eating. Others feel exactly the opposite, especially if the curry contains cilantro. So curry is something that elicits either love or hatred. It fires passion either for or…

Gott Mit Uns
When I was a kid, I had an eccentric uncle. He was an inventor, and had a lot of social quirks about him. I think a lot of these quirks came from some of the things he’d had to endure. You see, during World War 2, he’d been a pacifist, and since he would not fight, he was forced instead to do body counts after battle in the European theater. One day he showed me a belt buckle he’d taken off a…

Perhaps A Little Hardship Wouldn’t Be A Bad Thing.
Perhaps A Little Hardship Wouldn’t Be A Bad Thing.
This one may get a little long, and I’m going to try not to let it get complicated, but here it goes.
Growing up in the American church, being saved was always about what happens to you when you die. When we read about the kingdom of Heaven in the Bible it was always about pearly gates and meeting God. Furthermore, when we’re doing a class on poverty alleviation and we ask, why did Jesus come…

The Importance of Suffering.
When I go overseas to Africa or elsewhere, one of the universal factors I see is trials and suffering. A pastor friend of mine once talked about when he went to teach some pastors in Africa, and when asked what they wanted to learn about, they wanted to be taught how to stand up under suffering and difficulty. My pastor friend at that point felt unqualified to speak on that subject. And this is…

In this video John leaves the teardrop camper at home to launch a canoe out into the Okefenokee Swamp with a friend he's known since kindergarten. Along the way, he'll photograph alligators and birds while camping in the wilderness. Special thanks to Okefenokee Adventures and especially Chip, who gave us more knowledge about the wilderness than we'll ever retain. If you've ever wanted to see the lesser known places or wanted to travel simply, check out this video.
I Know What You Don’t Do, But What Do You Do?
I Know What You Don’t Do, But What Do You Do?
When I was a kid, I grew up in a church where we didn’t dance, didn’t smoke, didn’t gamble, didn’t go to movies, didn’t listen to rock music, didn’t didn’t didn’t. There was a long list of things that we didn’t do. In fact, in the denomination we were in, I think it could be said that we were known far more for what we didn’t do than for what we did.
You know what else we didn’t do? We didn’t…

Let Not My Own Strength Slow Me Down.
Let Not My Own Strength Slow Me Down.
Even though it wasn’t until I became an adult that I started entering races, I’ve always been into endurance sports. Even as a kid, I would go out into the school field behind my house and just see how long I could run. When I became an adult, I got into mountain biking and started racing in that sport. Later I started running marathons, half-marathons, and triathlons. At the peak of my…

A Quick Thought
Sometimes I just have a quick thought I feel is worth writing down. Tonight is one of those times.
There are three things wrong with the world.
Thinkers who do not do,
Doers who do not think,
And those who neither think, nor do.

The Beauty of the Hard Places
The Beauty of the Hard Places
I had a piece I was going to write tonight, but I decided I’ve written enough about my thoughts lately. My thoughts can get tiring to me sometimes, so I can only imagine what it’s like for other people. So tonight I’m writing a very picture heavy blog featuring some of the amazing places I’ve seen in going to the hard parts of Africa. All photos were taken in South Sudan, Kenya, or Ethiopia. If…

Generosity
Every time I go to Africa I learn something new. I learn new things about the places and cultures, and about how one country or one region or one tribe is different from another. And whereas when I first went to Africa everything was new and different and very black and white, over the years I’ve begun to understand the subtle nuances of why some things are the way they are. More exciting for me…

A Week in Kibera.
A Week in Kibera.
Recently I got back from spending a week in Kenya, most of it in the Kibera slum of Nairobi. It had been 3 1/2 years since I’d been to Kenya, and I was eager to see how our friends were doing. Though we’d been in contact with many of them, it’s much better to be able to physically see how people are doing than to just be told. Plus it’s the unspoken things that really tell the stories.
Some…

The gods of the Western World
The gods of the Western World
I’ve been back from Kibera for a week now. Though I was able to formulate a lot of my thoughts while still there, how to put them down was another matter.
I think I’m going to start with the premise that the largest deficit and therefore the largest detriment to missions coming from the Western world is a lack of humility. Without getting into too much detail, this is what we saw when we went…
