God has been so very gracious to us. The last few weeks have been a whirlwind of activity and change. Thank you for praying for our family as we have relocated back to West Virginia.

Times of transition remind you of so many truths. For me, one of those has been that God chose the perfect wife for me! Tammy has been so supportive in every way and has made the transition smooth for our home. Morgan, Lauren, and Grant have started the school year in a new school and are doing very well. When we are not on the road, we are all enjoying the opportunity to be near family again.

My dad has pastored the Cranberry Baptist Church in Beckley for the last twenty-six years. This is the church that first sent me to Crown College twenty-two years ago when I graduated from high school. We are truly grateful that they are now serving as our sending church (cranberrybaptistchurch.com).

With three new believers in Georgia

I praise God for souls saved and numbers of people coming back to the Lord over the last few weeks. The Lord is answering prayers and it is a thrill to watch Him work! We have seen a divine stirring in churches, a holy hunger for revival. May the Holy Spirit continue to do what only He can do.

Pray with me the prayer of the weeping prophet, Jeremiah, in Lamentations 5:21, “Turn thou us unto thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old.” Charles Spurgeon said that the prayers God answers are those that begin with Him. This is His Word. It should be our prayer.
