Devastation in Kenya Continues
The torrential rains that destroyed the crops in North Pokot a few months ago now threaten to wash out the original orphanage we helped to build in 2009.

Seeing the End from the Beginning
Many of you wrote me about the videos I shared of Sara's new garden. It is a joy to live in the middle of this. But there's another story here. Sara saw this garden before we ever moved into his house and if you saw what the yard looked like when we bought the... Read More

May You Bloom and Grow Forever
I never expected to be undone in the middle of a theatrical production of The Sound of Music, but I was. I tell this story in today’s podcast, Unmanipulatable, but I wanted to share it here as well for those who might miss it there. Last Saturday, Sara and I went to see this... Read More

Is There Any Vengeance in God?
Proposal: There is no vengeance in God's agony for the sin of the world. I'm putting that out there, hoping to start a conversation with many of you. I grew up believing God was incredibly vengeful. The Old Testament writers convinced me. Their writings were full of God-is-going-to-get-you passages against Israel's enemies, and even... Read More

A Culture of Abuse
I listened to this yesterday and how wish everyone else would too. It isn't easy to listen to, but this presentation by Sheila Wray Gregoire, an author and researcher on sexual abuse offers some critical information for us to understand the culture of abuse that permeates Christianity. According to her research, much of evangelical... Read More
And the Lessons You Will Learn
Not only did we go to some amazing places, talked with a lot of incredible people, but we also learned so much about each other and how God is working in us. Every day is an adventure in the life of Jesus no matter where we are. I love how he shows up in... Read More

We meet many people in RV Parks who are traveling to National Parks or other points of interest. We've seen some interesting sights, too, including forests, beaches, historic towns, Churchill Downs, and even the new Sphere in Las Vegas. But what governs our travel is the people we meet and the invitations people extend... Read More
Oh, The Places You'll Go...
It's weird setting out on a trip, unsure of where you'll go, how long you'll stay, and when you'll return. This is our third such excursion across the U.S. Each day begins with an early morning walk with our dogs. I take one early for about two miles, and Sara joins me for the... Read More
The Last Leg of a Beautiful Trip
As Sara and I turn toward home, our hearts are filled with joy from this time together, and the countless conversations we've had with people from all over the U.S. We even had people fly in or drive great distances to be with us for some of our gatherings.

Seeing God as He Really Is
Some in the religious establishment have so disfigured God that people see him as a demanding tyrant who orchestrates horrible tragedies to punish or train them. They don't know God as a loving Father or Jesus as a gracious Redeemer who is not manipulating the chaos of darkness to torment them into obedience; Father... Read More
