We would love to introduce you to the wonderful, local, husband/wife musicians of Annagail. Jared and Jennifer Adams recently moved back to the area from Tennessee and frequently travel for their tours. If you've been to concerts you have probably noticed that the group usually has a non-profit that they highlight/support during their tour. Annagail heard about Mission 1:27 from a local family

So they need $25K very quickly....or at least a large chunk of it. Do you have $$ you are willing to use to help this family care for 3 more of God's precious children? Please prayerfully consider whether you can help in some way. Donations can

Hence, the music videos that have popped up periodically on the blog. I'm excited to direct you to our newest link, http://breakingourchains.blogspot.com/.

"I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full" (John 10:10). Wow. That's different from saying, "I have come to forgive you. Period." Forgiveness is awesome, but Jesus says here he came to give us life. "I am the bread of life" (John 6:48). "Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him" (John 7:38) The more I looked,

Starting very early, life has taught all of us to ignore and distrust the deepest yearnings of our heart. Life, for the most part, teaches us to suppress our longing and live only in the external world where efficiency and performance are everything. We have learned from parents and peers, at school, at work, and even from our spiritual mentors that something else is wanted from us other than

The VanderZwaag family has officially arrived in Colombia! Yay! Tomorrow, Valentine's Day, they will get little Luisa. I can only imagine the excitement in their hearts right now!! Praise God for their faith journey! Mission 1:27's deepest heart desire is to reach out to the lost and introduce them to the family of God. We have been so blessed to be a part of Gods plan for Luisa and the VZ's.

I was so blessed once again during my time at Lakeshore Pregnancy Center this week. A very sweet girl came in for a pregnancy test. She'd lived in Holland all of her life. Didn't go to church and didn't know about salvation through Christ. She was open and interested in hearing of the hope He offers. She prayed with me and asked Christ into her heart. The harvest is ripe even right here in

I returned home late last night from a wonderful, warm week in Guatemala. It was beautiful and I cherish the time spent with my brothers and sisters in Christ. I wept on the shoulder of two great sisters who saw my pain, my brokenness, and listened to my heart. You see.... these people who I serve with are my true family.

I passed through Atlanta airport last weekend en route to Rome...............uh, Rome, Georgia:) Anyway, I wasn't sure why I was going to this particular place, but I knew I was following God's plan for me. Living truly becomes very adventurous when you try to be open to His leading! So....I arrived in ATL with two hours to spare waiting for 3 gals from California who would be arriving at 1:20.

The VZ family was one that got our hearts searching for what we were to do to assist in the orphan crisis. Mission 1:27 was organized as a result of much prayer desiring Gods Will in this matter. We recently had the priviledge of giving, a much needed, 8 passenger vehicle to this special family. The next step for them may be a BUS if God continues to bless their family with the ability to care

Mission 1:27 has been so blessed this year with a donor who has used his resources in a continuous effort to support Gods work. In order to help families financially we need fundraisers.

I was recently introduced to OneVerse, an organization dedicated to changing lives through God's Word. There are still MANY people groups out there who do not have the Word of God available to them in their own language. They are living, generation after generation without HOPE. This is so sad, they don't know what Jesus did for them because we haven't brought them the Good News yet. We are God's

This is a cause worth living for. It is a cause worth dying for. It is a cause worthy of moving urgently on. We have the gospel of Christ in us, and we do not have time to waste. Some wonder if it is unfair for God to allow so many to have no knowledge of the gospel. But there is no injustice in God. The injustice lies in Christians who possess the gospel and refuse to give their lives to making

The language of Matthew 10 envisions Jesus as a military commander sending soldiers out on a mission. He summoned His disciples and then sent them out. In light of the needs before them and the danger around them, the disciples knew they were entering into battle. In the late 1940's, the US government commissioned William Francis Gibbs to work with United States Lines to construct an 80

Some more thoughts to ponder from Radical by David Platt: God asked me, "What are you going to do with what I have given you? How are you going to use your influence, your leadership, and your resources in the world around you?"A couple in their early seventies were presented with a plethora of options for what to do together during their retirement. In response they chose an uncommon path:

I hunger for biblical truth. With all the cultural, denominational differences in theology, several years ago God directed me to His Word. Since then, I've devoured the Bible, praying for God to reveal to me the truths I am to run this life with. Along the way, He has continually placed books which expound upon the truths He lays on my heart. Radical by David Platt is the most recent of
