Who told you you are naked? The enemy has been spreading lies about God's Children since time began. The sad story is...believe what he says! God got so angry when he heard that the Enemy said to Adam and Eve that they are not good enough...that they are naked in the Garden! Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God actually say, ‘You shall not eat of any tree in the garden’?” (Genesis 3:1 ESV) And he said, “I heard the sound...

Northbound (Our team) went to China after Russia. We were on the Trans-Siberian train for 4 days and used the great opportunity to reflect on our busy time in Russia. We arrived in Beijing at the main train station and was shocked to see so many thousands of people. It was very hot and the smog (low hanging smoke) was very bad. We couldn't go out of our hostel without returning wet because of the heat. Beijing In Beijing we could get physically and spiritually ready for our time in China. We ate in restaurants all the time because it...

[video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDKH9CBXnDY 400x400]   This video and photos are what happened when a group of us were helping out with sorting and packing clothes and shoes to be delivered to the needy in Jeffreysbay during our training. Some of us tried a few pieces on and what you see here is the result of that! Who said you couldn't enjoy yourself while serving!  

Just want to say hi to every one that has been wondering where I’ve been and what I’ve been up to.

Well January had really kicked of very quickly and this is actually already February.

So the first week of Jan was preparing for the official start of Global Challenge eXtreme 2008 (GCX).

Time flies when you’re having fun – with that we’re ending off our time in Ubatuba.  What a blessing it has been!  From the Brazilians I have learned that it’s important to make time for people and that building relationships is a big part of ministry.  O yes, on the picture with us is Elaine´s grandmom, she is 100 years old and still walks alone to the beach every day!

Gone was the comfortable bus and train rides of Morocco and even to a degree Egypt. We were now in the land of trying to see how many people you can fit into small spaces. Our travels to Nouakchott was in two Mercedes-Benz taxi's. We would now complete the journey from the capital to the Senegalese border in one Renault station wagon! Including all our bags.   Somehow they convinced us it was an 8 seater. And it really was, just for very tiny people. Two or three bags fit in the back (of course the door had to be...

“If people who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land” 2 Chronicles 7:14   Morocco bursts with colour, flavour, sounds, people and culture. It catches you by surprise if you don’t prepare yourself, but is this a case of being careful not to judge a book by its covers? With statistics such as a 99% Muslim population and having laws prohibiting evangelising, makes one wonder what is going on in...

21/04/2014 The country where your heart gets torn in two, and your soul cries out “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?".(Matthew 27:46) This Hindu-colony with its pack of gods, “Father, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they are doing.”(Luke 23:34) Where colonialism's deep, raw, wounds are still festering and the demonic-gods are indulging them in the hopelessness of this colony's ants. This is indeed an exotic colony, with exotic beings. If I think back to the three weeks I spent in India, I think of a tremendous number of mosquitos, the zooming of lots and lots flies around rotten food,...
