By the Grace of God I had the opportunity today to read out of the Bible (John 14) in a Muslim mosque to the imam. We had some discussions about Jesus and about what the Muslims believe and what us Christians believe. As some of you know there are a lot of similarities between the Islam and the Christian faith. The word ‘Muslim’ actually means “submitted to God” (the same God of Adam, Noah, Moses, David, etc.) The biggest difference between us is that they don’t believe in the Holy Trinity of God and that the only way they can...
Okay so a long time have passed since I have send any letter, things have been a little bit rough for me as a leader the last month or so. I knew it’s going to be difficult and tough leading a team but this is a new kind of tough.

Our Luke 10 expedition began on 23 August 2011 from Lisbon, Portugal. The red team consisted of Frikkie de Beer, Carmen Ann Lombard, Christopher Griesel, Nelmari Smit and then there was a new member only for Luke 10, named Samuel Vogel.

There were several words and pictures that came up in our prayers, but we didn’t get a specific place where God wanted to send us....

I was standing at a budhist tempel gate this afternoon, looking at them crawling on their stomachs for budda (as part of a prayer ritual). My heart goes out to these people, if they could only know the truth.
Next to me in the internet cafe is a lady singing like an angel, so beautiful. I can't help thinking how beautiful she can sound if she was singing worship songs to the Lord.
