Church of Hope in Laguna Hills, CA Seeing Mom

This past weekend I was in So Cal. I spoke at Church of Hope in Laguna Hills, CA at the invitation of Pastor Freddy Cortez, Jr. I always enjoy being at this church. It is a a very loving and encouraging group. I spoke on the sowing and reaping principle in Gal 6:1-10 and then later fielded general Bible questions for an hour.

I was also able to see my 95-year old Mom on Mother’s Day, which was great. Mom and I and my sister Pam and my nephew John went out to eat and had a great time. Mom is doing pretty well after having had a drop off in health a few months back when she was hospitalized for a few weeks. It took her a while to get her strength back. But now she is walking again and is doing well. We talk about Christ and eternal life a lot. So far she hasn’t indicated that she has believed in Him for eternal life. But she knows the message well. And she is quite open to talk about it too.

On the plane on the way home I got into a nice conversation with a man who saw me reading my Bible. We talked about the grace message and the emerging church (which he indicated he feels is dangerous, and I told him I agreed with him). Later he indicated an interest in eschatology so we talked about the Rapture and the Bema. He appears to be a serious student of the Word. I gave him my card and pointed him to the website. He indicated he would check it out.

You should be able to check out pictures of Church of Hope and of my Mom this week. Just go to our home page and click on GES Picture Gallery. Then click on Church of Hope, May 11.

I am so thankful to each of you who supports this ministry both financially and prayerfully. It is quite a pleasure to promote the grace message by writing and editing and speaking.

Increasing in Him,
