I was helping my wife with some correcting tonight (sometimes I’m an overpaid graduate teaching assistant) and we came across one student who had not completed her past four assignments. She’s bright, creative, capable… but in danger of failing. Why? Because she just didn’t do the work. She has lots of good ideas, too many…

I am creating a new website which will include my blog. I had a friend build this one for me long ago, and it has been reliable, but over time I have come to need it to do far more than just host a blog. So be looking for my new site — it will…
This story is running everywhere right now: Jennifer Foster, a tourist from Arizona was walking around New York’s Times Square with her boyfriend when she saw a homeless man sitting on the sidewalk asking for change. He was obviously cold – without shoes or socks on a frigid night. Just then, a NYC police officer bent down, and…
How I love to proclaim it! Redemption is one of those words that most of us use rather flippantly. Paul, the apostle, used the term because in the first century, slavery was an accepted practice and everyone fully understood what an unfathomable gift to a slave their redemption would be. But you and I have always been…
Back in Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport, in the KLM Sky Lounge, thinking back on Cape Town 2010. It dawned on me that 21 years ago, the second Lausanne congress was wrapping up in Manila.

Stan (my broadcast team mate) and I determined that we would be in this final session, but as it started,…
Weird combo – arts & integrity – but it works. Watch our most recent video release from Cape Town 2010, The Third Lausanne Congress on World Evangelization; it includes a look at the variety of artistic expressions that are going into this international gathering, plus it examines the error that can creep into our message.

The planners of The Third Lausanne Congress on World Evangelization knew there would be far ranging interest in the proceedings in Cape Town with people from around the world who could not attend. So, in addition to the 4,500+ participants here in the Cape Town International Convention Center, hundreds (about 650 or so) GlobaLink sites…
Thursday was a day off for participants of Cape Town 2010, but many staff stayed on to use the time to finish up tasks that had fallen behind in the crazyness of the first few days. I, however, took the opportunity to tour the peninsula with new friends: Clyde Taylor, Director of Visual Story Network and…
