“… When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.” Isaiah 59:19 The enemy may be coming in today on all sides of you. He may be coming in like a flood! Fear not! The Lord is with you and will lift a standard against him. “…...
173 little ones gathered in this remote Haitian village as Hubert and the Love A Child team from the south of the country arrived to prepare a hot meal for them. Many of these children regularly go 2 to 3 days without food. For nearly five years, gangs have controlled roughly 85% of the capital,...
Farmer John’s isn’t just growing animals and vegetables… You know about our very successful Development for Sustainability outreach at the Gwo Marche Mirak (Grand Miracle Marketplace) that features Farmer John’s Abatwa (Butcher Shop), the many local Haitian vendors, the gas station, and the Agricultural Training Center.

“Crazy Faith!” An old man of God preached a sermon one time on, “How Bad Do You Want It?” Most Christians ask the Lord for something and then whine around when we don’t get it immediately, but “faith without works is dead… dead faith.” Jesus had been wearied with preaching and praying for the sick....
Sherry and I had plans on traveling to Haiti yesterday. We had to cancel due to Sherry's doctor wanting to see her on Wednesday. The following week, she has an important medical procedure on Thursday, then another procedure after that. Through all of this, Sherry is doing really well. We have plans to travel to...
