day 1 in Cuba



It is that time.  As you read this I am either on my way to Cuba or have arrived.  Please pray for the next 12 days and the impact that the sports ministry.


Day 1 in Cuba


Over the next four days I will be part of a mission team serving in the mountain area of southern Cuba.  We will serve in a village that is almost cut off from the world, and I am excited about what God going to do.


The following week we will be back in Havana serving with the sports ministry, helping with a camp and encouraging the FCA staff.  This is a great group of people that God is using to change lives and even to help heaven get sweeter and bigger.


Pray for my family as I am away.  Pray for our church family and the incredible ministries we get to be part of.  I am grateful for all those who serve and those receive through what we can give.  But what I am even more grateful for is that we get to tell everyone about Jesus.


1 Corinthians 9:22-23  NLT  

… Yes, I try to find common ground with everyone, doing everything I can to save some. 23 I do everything to spread the Good News and share in its blessings.


May we do the same.  May we seek to share about what we have seen and heard.  May we know that God has a plan for each of us.  All we have to do is to tell others and show them His love.


Thank you for your prayers and support.  The e-devotions will come to you only a few times while I am in Cuba.

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you

why is it Good Friday?

  Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation.  We come to Friday.  The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me   Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good?   Jesus was treated as a criminal.  He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him.  His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure.  That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the  Passion of the Christ .   Yet it is a good day.  It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart.  What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me:   He is Redemption and Redeemer   He too our Pain and Punishment   He is our Righteousness and Reality   He is the Savior and Life   All of those happened from the cross.  It was meant for the worst lawbreakers.  It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law.  It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus.   Look
