We reached Garland at 3:30 PM Monday. rest was needed, now we are refueled and ready to edit footage. God has created a relationship with Gabriel House for us and that was...

He sings worship as loud as he can. Today i went to grab the camera battery off the charger when i looked out the window and saw him reading his bible as he prayed. There are workers here at Gabriel House that it is just a...

Even in my weakness I will give You glory.

After Elijah’s graduation today we will be on our journey to Gabriel House. to use the talents and tools God have given us and use them for His glory (Isaiah 43:7) for He has called us by name. These children are loved by Him dearly and they are growing up in an environment that lifts up the name of Jesus. He knows the condition and hearts of every worker, child, and volunteer at Gabriel...

love one another

These past couple of weeks have been very challenging for Hannah and I. Many of the things we hadn’t worried about before are now over whelming our lives. You can have everything in the world but when you lose your health everything else in your life begins to crumble. The things you cared about before begin to stop mattering because they are just so temporary. James writes in...

To Our Friends and Family

Someway, big or small, you are a part of that. This December (the 17th -28th) a group of us will be heading right outside of Ensenada, Baja California Mexico to be a part of something amazing. There is a special...

Am Echad Adonai Echad

one people, one God. once we step out of comfortability, comparison, and self it is amazing what the body of Christ can accomplish. When we are are ALL, hopefully devoted to serving Him there will be no division if we stay in connection and in Spirit. The lights, the music, or the squeaky chairs will be the least of our problems. When the true presence of the Living God is in the room all eyes be...

For the LORD is good; his steadfast love...
