  • Flashback: One of my bigger regrets

    In October 2020, a week or so after I moved to Boise, I got in a car accident. In July 2020, the Lord one day took me to a dealer a ways out of my way (Max Motors in Belton, MO). On the way, the Lord gave me an idea of what I was looking…

  • Debt is paid and I am moving to the PNW!

    Last year I arrived in Kansas City expecting it to be a layover before continuing to YWAM Ships Kona. Then the Lord spoke. I was to pay off all of my debt before I would get the go-ahead for the next step. I was filled with anxiety with the overwhelming size of this goal, $34,000,…

  • God IS moving!

    A lot is going on in the world today! Wells of revival are pouring over in parts of the USA, the University of the Nations published our two years of work on the Maritime Academy degree programs, and I am paying off debt! Revival is happening! A group from YWAM that you may recognize as…

  • Expectant for the miraculous

    The day I started this journey of following Christ (for real), about May 1st, 2016, the Lord asked me to go into missions. That was a big ask, but was an answer to the prayer I prayed, “Lord use me!” A short time later I discovered that I was to walk out this Word through…

  • The most impactful week of my life!

    This past week was one of the most impactful in my life. The Holy Spirit came. People were delivered. Nations will never be the same. Imagine walking into a room, and the speaker is standing there at the pulpit, giving a message with his eyes closed the entire time. One of the first statements he…

  • I’m moving!

    If you keep up with my updates, you may remember that in a recent newsletter, I mentioned a change of location.  This transition comes as my UK visa expires in December and I have been praying about the next season. Since starting to pray in March about the possibility of a transition, I felt a…

  • Life in Images

    My last update covered more of the big picture and vision of what I do and what I am involved in, but these next few updates will hopefully shed some light on what my personal life in a missional community looks like practically. A day in the office From brainstorming new degree programs to planning…

  • Vision and Mission of Reaching the Isolated

    The other day when my grandmother asked, “Can you explain, in brief, what you do so I can tell people?” I realized that I have not given the description of the “why, where, and how” of what I do with YWAM and the Maritime Academy in a concise way.  The following is a combination of…

  • 5 Salvations, Mental Illness, and KC

    A lot has happened over the past few weeks and is coming up. Starting new men’s small group, working to plan community local outreach opportunities, and coordinating an international YWAM Ships marketing campaign are just a few of the great things that have come from the past month and a half. The Discipleship Training School…

  • Season of life

    Update on the University of the Nations Maritime Academy During the last few weeks of 2018, leading up to New Years, I was really pushing to see what God had envisioned for 2019.  This year will definitely have a different flavor to the one we just saw. In 2018, we traveled around the world (twice), planting seeds about more efficiently equipping those called to serve the forgotten people…
