The Bottom Line

So often we tend to quantify a touched life, a changed life, with numbers on a page. The numerals that make up the "bottom line." But numbers can't tell the story of the humanity behind them— the relationships formed, gifts received, meals shared and stories told. A bottom line stretches…

The Rebirth of Innocence

Innocence is a treasure that God gives children. It is something we experience as children before we can even appreciate its value. Innocence is the veil between childhood and adulthood. Innocence is the cocoon that allows children to develop properly without being stained by the world. Innocence is the essence…

Changing China

It was the last evening our team was together in China after a busy two weeks in Asia. We leaned against the fence long after dark, staring at Tiananmen Square. My mind tried to connect the smooth, humming bustle of present Beijing with the unrelenting oppression experienced by those peaceful…

Meeting Burma

Like most Americans, I was quite unfamiliar with Burma prior to our trip to the Far East. Burma has made just a proverbial blip on the American radar, bringing to our attention such events as the Buddhist monks marching in the streets and the Cyclone in 2008. (more…)
