New Teaching Opportunity!

We enjoyed a refreshing time with many of our family in the faith at Scottsdale Bible Church's Harvest Festival this past week and weekend. It's always enjoyable to reconnect with those from the field we haven't seen in many months.

As a result of talking with a dear friend at the festival, we learned of an opportunity to partner with her to reach out to the Arab community in Phoenix. On December 12th, Dr. Kristin Beasley will teach a conglomerate of Arab women about "Embracing Your True Identity" at a women's Arab conference in the Valley. She will teach a series of 3 segments to this audience in early December.

We would appreciate your prayers for Kristin's teaching, for hearts and minds to be uplifted, encouraged and enlightened by this material, and for our fellowship and relationship building with these women.

We anticipate the many ways in which God will work during this time to advance His plan!

"Insights for Strengthening the Blessed Alliance": Conference Recap

I just returned from Florida where I taught a workshop titled, “Insights for Strengthening the Blessed Alliance” (the “blessed alliance” refers to Adam and Eve in Eden when God blessed them and commissioned them to form an alliance to rule and subdue the earth) at the recent Synergy Conference in Orlando. Synergy is a networking conference for women in vocational ministry, and has been in existence for about 5 years now. I have taught there for most of those years and they always want me to teach the same thing: how men and women can work together in ways that are biblical and that strengthen their ability to work effectively together in ministry. The need for believers to learn how to affirm one another and develop healthy, godly relationships never goes away! So it is my privilege to join these fine women each year with a practical message on developing healthy interpersonal relationships.
Though I love to teach women, I also love the opportunity to develop ministry relationships and deepen budding friendships. Most of these women I only see once a year, so I look forward to times to visit and share highlights of our lives and ministries. The photos here just capture a glimmer of the fun that was had connecting with like-minded women. Maybe I will see you there next year! Mark your calendar: March 5-7, 2010. It should prove to be stimulating as next year’s theme will be: “The Shaping of a Leader’s Soul”.
