James Bond is “007″. It’s entirely appropriate that Episode 007 of Missions Minded Videos is a top-secret, under cover, covert operation. No lives were risked making this video, but lots of laughs ensued!
In this episode, the men of the Emmanuel Fellowship short-term mission (myself included) play a prank on the ladies of the team. (In [...]
Episode 007 - Mission Trip Prank: "A Day With Gumby" [4:35m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (48)It’s Saturday afternoon and I’m hanging out at the mall with Amber.
I’m supposed to be with the short-term mission team from Emmanuel Fellowship.
So why am I playing hooky?
Because we have the best ministry director in the world!
Alcides is filling in for me this weekend to give me some rest in between teams. I’ll join the [...]
You’re going to enjoy Episode #6 of Missions Minded Videos: “Cooking With Claudia!” Claudia will show us how to make Nathan’s mouth-watering Nicaraguan food: pescosones.
They’re a slice of heaven. Fried.

Join me in celebrating 500 posts since I started this blog in June 2005!
Five hundred is old…even in “blog years.”
If you’re really curious, this was my very first blog entry. As you can see, my creative juices were flowing right from the start (ha!).
Thank you all so much for staying with me for the [...]

Read full post...We have a “new” car! And it’s exactly the vehicle we were praying for: seats 5-7, AC, 4×4. Oh yeah, and it’s a Nissan, my personal favorite. (This will be my third Nissan: first was the ‘85 Pulsar, then an ‘01 Frontier, and now a ‘99 Pathfinder.) Thank you for praying for us [...]
