Testimony of Mehdi Dibaj Before an Iranian Court in January 1994

January 06, 2010 by Barry Bruce

With all humility I express my gratitude to the Judge of all heaven and earth for this precious opportunity, and with brokenness I wait upon the Lord to deliver me from this court trial according to his promises. I also beg the honored members of the court present to listen with patience to my defense and with respect for the name of the Lord.

The Triumph of God

January 04, 2010 by Randy Sims

"In the death of Christ, the powers of darkness did their best to destroy the glory of the Son of God. This is the apex of evil. But instead they found themselves quoting the script of ancient prophesy and acting the part assigned to them by God. Precisely in putting Christ to death, they put his glory on display -- the very glory that they aimed to destroy. The apex of evil achieved the apex of the glory of Christ. The glory of grace." 

--- John Piper

The Long Awaited Website!

September 15, 2009 by Randy Sims

Well, here it is! (well, most of it, anyway!) If it has been hard to locate Shirley or me lately, it's probably because we have had to hide away in a dark corner to get everything in order to launch this new website! It's been a lot of work but we believe that it will be worth it. Not everything is completed yet, but we are closing in on the goal!

The website has two audiences, and two very important purposes!

First, it is for YOU!
