Monday we stood in the Raleigh-Durham airport and said good-bye to our dear friends, Ryan and Joy Owen (www.owenambition.org). By now the Owens have already arrived in their new country, Ghana, and are trying to get acquainted to their new life in Western Africa.

We joined Baptist Mid Missions together and Ryan and I were ordained together. ...Keep Reading

This can be due to no one having any energy when the sun drops below the water just over the cinder block wall in the distance. When the clock strikes 10, we’re out like a light....Keep Reading
When writing about "un-reached people groups" John Piper states, "a group is reached when mission efforts have established an indigenous that has the strength and resources to evangelize the rest of the group" (Let the Nations be Glad. pg 216). According to this definition, Mongolia is far from the status of a "reached" nation.
