Latest and Greatest from me:

I am officially on my year of missions work and free from the Marine Corps!

I am slowly but surely making contacts with YWAM bases in Brazil. Some have expressed interest in sponsoring my missions visa. There's a big conference happening there in the beginning of September that would be an awesome opportunity to network with lots of bases at once. Not sure if I can get the visa in time but I'm hoping and praying!

My braces actually seem to be the biggest holdup. Orthodontist said it would a few more months before I finish up treatment.

This summer was a huge step in the right direction. I got to experience the power of prayer on a regular basis and got confirmed that living in tight-nit Christian community is how I want to live permanently.

I'll be spending some time with friends from college/Baltimore in the next couple of days.

This past Monday I was hanging out with Deborah doing some touristy things in DC. We went to check out the Library of Congress. That's where the pic is from. The building itself is ridiculously ornate and very pretty! Check out my pics.

Bethel is even cooler than expected

Within 90 minutes of landing in Redding, I learned of Bethel students engaged in business solutions to extreme poverty. Monday I heard a powerful teaching from Bill Johnson on how life on Earth offers us the only chance to worship God in the midst of our pain, suffering, loss, and confusion. When we are in heaven we won't have the chance to give God that gift. Bill's teaching reaffirmed this ongoing theme that suffering matters. Suffering creeps me out but I can not deny that suffering somehow leads to intimacy with Christ. Monday night gave me a few a hours to meet a great house church where blue collar types mingled with Bethel alum. Prophecy and healing flowed amidst their faith and love. God gave me a chance to pray for healing for one of the guys. This tested my faith when his knee actually got a little worse in the first couple of minutes of prayer. That hurt my pride. Fortunately during the second bout of prayer his knee healed completely. V...
