One of my textbooks for my final Master’s class is “Let the Nations be Glad” by John Piper. The book is a delight to navigate, and because I’ve heard him preach and teach many times, I can “hear” the whole thing in Piper’s voice. Throughout the book, Piper references many anecdotes and stories about God’sContinue reading “The Supremacy of God in Missions”

The Stout Scot
The life of John Knox can only be defined as “extraordinary.” He was born around the year 1514 and died in November 24, 1572. He was raised in Haddington, East Lothian, Scotland, located about fifteen miles from Edinburgh. His early education took place at the Haddington Grammar School and in 1536 he obtained his M.A.Continue reading “The Stout Scot”
Preparing for the Unknown
I enjoy investing. Whether my 401k, stock market investments, the fascination with cryptocurrency, and the potential of startups. After discovering my risk tolerance, the research required to make educated guesses with a potential for some sort of future return is relaxing. Investment gurus and experts worldwide are talking about the future volatility and uncertainty ofContinue reading “Preparing for the Unknown”
The Restoration of Fascination
One of my favorite things about being a dad is the restoration of fascination with the basic building blocks of reality that had become a monotonous part of my existence. This restoration is possible because my son has entered an alien world full of new sights, sounds, smells, and concepts and I’m the one thatContinue reading “The Restoration of Fascination”

The first chapter of Genesis is packed with a myriad of doctrines and has been the subject of study and sermons for thousands of years. In fact, Jesus Himself taught on it in Mark 10:6, “But from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.” As Christians, we hold to the Bible asContinue reading “A Call to Stand Firm”

A Wife Reflects on God’s Faithfulness November was one of the most challenging months I had ever experienced. On November 13, 2021, I drove Titus, my husband, to Urgent Care to later find out that he was critically ill and needed to go to the Emergency Room immediately and safely. At the Urgent Care, theContinue reading “Strength in the Unknown”
A Brief Overview of Missions in the Old Testament
Missions in the Old Testament, while intrinsically containing the same goal as missions in the New Testament, were different in critical areas. God intended to bless the nations through the Abrahamic covenant according to Genesis 12:3 which reads, “I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and inContinue reading “A Brief Overview of Missions in the Old Testament”
Showing Love to Widows
The lives of missionaries have a tremendous impact on believers. They frequently draw awe at the real impact of the Word of God. The Apostle Paul, who I can safely say, was the greatest missionary (aside from Jesus), penned many striking examples of the impact of the Living Word of God on those whom heContinue reading “Showing Love to Widows”
