The Church Needs Violent Men

Here’s a blog from Jeff Goins that I enjoyed today.  This is exactly what I mean by living a “Warrior-Shepherd” ethos.  Thanks Jeff! //Dave   I’ve learned something as I’ve been preparing for this upcoming man hike in the White Mountains these past few weeks: the Church needs violent men. Not abusive men or frustrated men. […]






It’s the Little Things

A blog from Bec… So we have had a busy few months with some ups and downs, pretty much the life of any family! Ben seriously burnt his feet, but now four weeks later, he can do everything he did before, but he will not go without socks and shoes, the new skin is still […]






Here’s What You’re Missing…

This is a quick blog that I posted on the G42 Leadership Academy blogsite. We have an amazing series of courses linedup, with some world-renown teachers, prophets, and leaders.  And keep checking out the blogsite, the interns are now posting there, and it will give you a real insight into some of the things we […]






Spain. the next step in my life.

The following blog was written by Tara Stephenson, who will start at the G42 Leadership Academy in the June term. She is just one of the many who are coming to begin a life of community, discipleship, and become a part of what we call the 42nd Generation — of people realizing their inheritance in […]






Bringing Order to Chaos … but still itchy…?

This would have been an excellent blog for photos.  Unfortunately, I have none.  Good start, eh?

The Word of Promise audio bible uses celebrity voices to bring life to scripture, and this devotional selects 50 psalms and provides devotionals on different subjects related to those psalms. (It uses the NKJV and the […]






The 23rd Psalm–from “The Gift of Psalms” Devotional

I really have never been a fan of the 23rd Psalm-I guess it always seemed a little “soft” for my tastes.  But I read the following devotional from The Gift of Psalms Devotional (which I will post a review of soon) and I thought it was pretty good.  I am teaching Servanthood at our Leadership […]






A Multi-Generational Generation, and a Multi-National Nation!

I’ve spent the last week installing the kitchen, putting together IKEA cabinets, and feverishly putting together the last minute details for the students staying at Villa Los Grillos.  (with the help of Rebecca and some of our friends here, of course.)  A nice thing about Spain are the coffee breaks:  the ladies set out an […]






God Comes Through Every Time

“What in the world are we doing?!” … this thought actually ran through my head somewhere over the North Atlantic. It has been such a whirlwind, that I sometimes sit and think… why exactly did I uproot my family and go halfway around the world? But of course, God has always worked it out for […]
