March 2025 Update

Dear Friends,

            The first two months of 2025 have flown by.  They say that when you get older, time goes faster.  Jeneen and I must be in that stage of life.  We are also in the phase of life where the body shows signs of aging.  Jeneen is having gallbladder surgery on the 19^th and also has an appointment with the surgeon’s office for a knee replacement on the 10^th.  Please pray as we deal with some medical issues.

Ministry –

            We continue to do what the Lord sets before us.  I have been in contact with a couple of churches that do not have pastors, along with a couple of pastors seeking the Lord’s direction.  The Lord has to work in the hearts of people to put things together.  All I can do is introduce one to the other.  We rejoice when we see God’s working to bring churches and pastors together.  As I am writing this letter, I am talking with some people about this very subject.

            This coming summer, I will be doing meetings for a camp in WA.  We hope to do at least one man’s backpacking retreat.  We are working toward heading out to the Midwest in the early fall.  We also want to report to many of our supporting churches.

            When not on the road, we are very active in our home church, Fellowship Baptist Church in Nampa, ID.  Our website is fbcidaho.org.  God is working greatly in our church.  We are helping train men for ministry, doing lots of discipleship, and teaching.  Whether on the road or at home, we are busy in the work of the Lord.

Books –

            I have not mentioned the two books I wrote lately.  “Steadfast and Stable” and “Remaining Steadfast and Stable” continue to be used.  People share how God has used the studies to encourage, grow and challenge them.  Once in a while I hear of someone being saved while going through the first one, to the glory of God.  The value in the studies comes as they point people to the Word and the Lord.  They are available on Amazon and other sources.  Pray as I am working on writing another one.

            Thank you all for your prayers and encouragement.  We hope to see some of you this year.  We may see all of you as this could be the year of the rapture.
