Tom,
I don't know you, but I appreciated your comment on the "eschatology" blog. We share the same concerns and sentiments. About 10 years ago I wrote a book entitled "An Evening in Ephesus" (you can see it on my web at www.therevelation.com). 40 years ago I was heavily under the influence of Hal Lindsey. Then about 11 years ago read a book by Gary DeMar entitled "Last Days Madness" which came as a breath of fresh air to me. I took 9 months researching alternatives scenarios to the end time framework that the pre-mil, dispensationalists had come up with. In the midst of the research, I came across a word: Preterist. I can't stand the word, personally, but had to admit that "I are one." As I dug a little deeper, I found there to be battle lines drawn between the "full and partial preterists". There was some real mean spritedness coming from the full, or hyper-preterists that I didn't want to have anything to do with. At any rate, to make a long story short, I appreciate your good word and the three comments you shortly, but succinctly outlined that are core considerations for those flirting with hyper-preterism and universalism.

Tom,
Hey! Thanks for your imput and the few lessons you gave me. I am interested in learning more on how you have your simple church structured and what all you guys cover in the time periods you are together for "church". I am really trying to learn what is beneficial and what isnt. My house church is getting ready to split and I feel God leading me to help the leadership in the split and I want to be prepared to help out and lead and teach and guide people to be all that Christ has made them to be. However, I am learning what all that entails and looks like. If you would be willing to help me out and I will hit you up with questions as they arise. I really am looking for a network of people to help me learn what it means to have a beneficial church that matches up with the biblical teachings! Thanks for your times.

Wow!
Saw your photos flashing by. Please blog about Kenya. What's the clinic named in one of the photos?

Thank you for your story. . .how cool is that?! When I received my Call, it was to 'medical ministry' but I had to discern my place over time. It had crossed my mind to become a doc without borders, but God opened the door to seminary and hospital work at the same time. Otherwise, I might have been one of those docs you flew around. Blessings!

Tom, Thanks for sending me the friend request and for your committment to pray for the Borana People. We NEED prayer partners and appreciate your desire to become a vital part of our work by praying for the Borana.

Your work in Kenya sounds fascinating. We appreciate you pilots. Though we usually traveled in and out of Northern Kenya by vehicle we certainly took a lot of bush planes in and out as well and appreciate those kinds of ministries very much.

What are you doing now? I would like to add you to the Borana Prayer Team. If you want to do that please send an email to [email protected] and I will add you to our newsletter/prayer update list. We send one out about every 10 to 14 days.

Thanks again, and I look forward to getting to know you via Simple Church.com

Blessings,
Leah

Hello Tom, I think I talked to you once or someone in you group this fall. I live in Hanover In, and would like to visit one of your meetings. I thought you had a group in New Albany. My son is in college there. We have a group that meets in Hanover but would like to find others to work with. Thanks Anthony
