Unplugged Jesus. That’s what we call it at the Bible Schools. A Bible, a notebook and a decent desk is all we need for a full day of Bible studies. We don’t need commentaries, elaborate explanations, meticulous Inductive Bible Study methods of profound or “original” Hebrew words. There is a time and place for all […]

By God’s grace I was able to travel back to Kenya for nearly a month in March. The report? A+ in every category. Indeed, things are continuing and progressing in a way that makes me marvel. God has given us continued favor with the government, the communities the Pastors and Ministry Leaders of the slums. […]

“I need Prayer. And I knew this was the place to come.” Simple words from a desperate man of God. Pastor Gilbert is well known to us, but never was a student at the Bible School. He works for Bishop Ogutu, the host of the DSM Bible School location in the Mathare Valley slum. Pastor […]

Our role as foot soldiers is to put on the armor, Follow Their Lead and fulfill our individual task for Team […]

God is apt to make right hand turns…without a blinker. All for His Divine Purposes. And all for our Eternal good. Whether we understand it or not. Seasons change. That much all of us learn as we continue through life. And as much as we’d like to think we are adaptable, flexible and fluid, it […]
