I Will Never Forget How Jesus Came to Our House

It was busier than usual at our house. Mom and Dad were talking with people I did not know. They came and looked all over our front yard, taking measurements and talking about lights, speakers and a big tarp. I had no idea what was happening. The next day, a…

Now It Makes Sense

You may remember Jamil, our friend from Youland, who now lives in Europe. A while back, our family went to see him again. The three of us filled the one room, typically only inhabited by bachelor Jamil, while he lay down on a mattress in a room used as his…

Don’t Rock the Boat

The feeling was bittersweet. After 20 weeks in a beginner-level language class in Kyoto, Japan, I was graduating from Book 1. My understanding and comprehension of Japanese had dramatically increased. However, the more I learned, the more I realized how little Japanese I actually knew. But I was making progress.…

Waiting . . .  Not for Naught

P.K. Confessions Lessons From Foot Washing

I found foot-washing stressful, even growing up a pastor’s son and having the Lord’s Supper at least once a quarter. I mean, it should have been pretty straightforward, right . . . right? Deacons and deaconesses would put out the wash basins and towels in at least three rooms the…

The Great Distribution

Members rallied around with copies of The Great Controversy to distribute. It was a special Sabbath. The Benin Conference of Seventh-day Adventists had decided that, this time, churches and groups would visit their local police stations to pass out the books. Their goal was for the Adventist church to become…

From Invisible Chains to True Freedom

_For a long time, I hesitated to share this story. Not because it wasn’t real, but because it is one of those stories we only hear about, and when we see it, it is hard to believe: the reality that many live in silence on the mission field._ I will…
