Back Safely… sans Luggage

I (E) have arrived back home in Boston from our missions trip to the Philippines. Praise the Lord, it was a wonderful trip. We offered leadership training seminars, preached at a camp for Muslim tribal youth, and visited pioneering church plants deep in Muslim Mindanao tribal areas. In all this, God provided ample protection and […]

clothed in scarlet

It is a rare occasion that I feel (note: “feel” not “am”) like the Proverbs 31 woman. After sending the kids out in 30 degree weather, this verse came to me. She is not afraid of snow for her household, for all her household are clothed in scarlet. Proverbs 31:21 I don’t know the significance […]

In 2010, Enoch went with our church’s team as a guest preacher. After that visit, the local church invited Enoch to return not only as […]

If you wouldn’t say it, don’t abbreviate it.

This post is not about the morality of swearing, course humor, or crass expressions. This post is about personal integrity and consistency. I’m talking about people who say it’s wrong to swear or use crass words, but then go on to use such words in their emails, tweets, posts, and text messages. I know many […]
