Walking By Faith

Dear friends and family, After three months of lectures and fundraising, and weeks of preparation, today our Atlanta DTS is off to Argentina for our two-month outreach! Please pray today for our travels, safety and team unity. Our thirteen member team is currently split up. Three members left on a separate flight this morning, and the other 10 of us will meet up with them in the Mexico City airport  this evening. From there, we will all fly together to Buenos Aires, Argentina. We should arrive  at 11am  on New Year's Eve and local YWAM staff will meet us at the airport.  We look forward to celebrating the New Year with the YWAM base that will be hosting us there! I cannot emphasize enough how valuable your prayer support is to our team. Thank you for blessing us so! We are so excited for what God is doing on this trip. We look forward to sharing the journey with you. Many many thanks from all of us!

However we tend to think fear is bad but in reality it is good.  Fear is an emotion that can be overcame!  It gives us the opportunity to be courageous!  We were taught a pretty easy way to share our faith called Th

 I know it has been a while since I posted last and so much has happened since then!   Things have been very crazy as we are trying to prepare for our two-month outreach to Argentina.   We are in our last week of lecture phase and we will be all heading home for Christmas and then returning to head out to Argentina.   Since I last posted we had a week of teaching on Inductive Bible Study... Highly Recommend! In this week we learned all about how to get the most we can out of our Bibles.   The lady teaching on it was a South African lady named Retha.   It was so amazing to hear her read and talk about the Bible because she truly made it come alive.   She told stories from it as if they were from personal experience.   I know for me sometimes I forget that the Bible is a book of history about people just like you and me.   The people who wrote it were just like you and me.   This is something kind of hard for me to wrap my head around but she really showed me
