My thoughts from when parenthood was new and I was in seminary. Seems like a world ago.

Alaska or Bust!
Today is the day! At 7:30 PM today I am leaving on a jet plane with 22 others to share Jesus in Alaska. This is year #4 for this trip for me and I can't be more excited. Alaska is a magical place and I don't say that lightly. It is the most beautiful place I have ever been too (Ireland comes in a close second). What makes Alaska so special is not only the beauty of the landscape but the beauty of the people. Over the years we have met and become close friends with some awesome people. I can't wait to reconnect with them and share stories of the past year.
I truly covet your prayers for the next week or so. Please pray for safe travel and that hearts are opened to the message of Jesus. I will give you an update when I return. Until then...
P.S. Yes, I did take the above picture (if you click on it you can see a bigger version of the picture). Words and pictures cannot even begin to describe Alaska but Lord knows I will try.

I was there with you... and it was stellar! Thank you my dear friend for being someone to appreciate the cold and rugged with me, and mostly for being an example of leadership for me and all the others in our group.
