March 21, 2010 – Niko and Outreach
It has been a tiring but very good week. Niko was a great experience. While a key part of the program is not knowing what will come next, and for that reason they request that we not give too much specific information about what the program consists of, I can broadly say that we did…

March 15, 2010 – Niko
While this past few weeks has been intense, it has also been a week of breakthroughs. Thank you to everyone who supported me financially; I was informed last week that I have all the money that I need to go on outreach. Also, I finally got over my cough, and am feeling much better physically.…

February 21, 2010 – Carnival and Tijuana
First off: I’m sorry that I haven’t been able to write anything or call for the last two weeks. It’s been a bit crazy around here. Start with a basic DTS. Add to this an additional DTS from Switzerland and another DTS returning from outreach in southern Mexico. Mix all of these with Carnaval: six…

February 7, 2010 – Coming Together
It has been a good week. A very good week. It’s hard to say exactly why, because nothing about this objective reality has changed. We are still in Ensenada. The base is still disorganized. We still do not know exactly what we are going to be doing. We are still a mix of a wide…

January 31, 2010 – Guitar Strings and Faith Healings
It has been a challenging week. A few highlights. Sunday: go to church with Japet, one of my Mexican friends who works on the base. Four hours of singing, dancing, preaching, more singing, shouting, and general enthusiasm. Intense. Monday: Start our week of classes. Speaker is Randy Bixby, who runs a House of Prayer. For…

January 24, 2010 – Reading the Teabags
It has been a good week. A very stretching week, but a good week. In the mornings, we had Linda Walker talk to us about our identity in Christ and listening to the voice of God. Now, I think that Linda Walker and I are about as different as two Christ-followers can be. Linda is…

January 18, 2010 – Adjustments
Two weeks down. It has been a bit crazy. On one hand, there are definitely things about Mexico that I still can’t get used to. As you know, Michael time runs about 10 minutes behind the rest of the world. However, I have discovered that Mexico time is about 20 minutes behind Michael time. It’s…

January 10, 2010 – Welcome to YWAM
One week down so far. Hard to believe. In a lot of ways, it feels like the first week of college, in that so much has happened that, on one hand, it seems like it’s all gone by in a flash; on the other, it’s hard to even imagine life as it was a few…

January 1, 2010 – An Unexpected Journey Begins
Well, it’s finally happening. Tomorrow at 6:40 Eastern Time, I’m headed to San Diego for five months with YWAM out of Tijuana. It’s strange how fast things change. It’s already been three months since leaving Seattle, a year and a half since graduating college and going to Mexico last time. This past three months has…
