How to Pray for Venezuela (via Mr. Marquez)

1. For churches and pastors to be used by God and bring words of encouragement to the lives of believers, as many are fearful and unsure of what to do during these times of tension.
2. For peace, and a peaceful transition in Venezuela, without innocent victims.
3. For believers to trust not in man, but in Jesus Christ, and remember that His kingdom is above any human kingdom.
4. That God may protect His church, the evangelists, pastors, and those who visit the sick in Venezuela, as armed groups are intimidating citizens 24 hrs a day in many parts of the country.

Conversation with the Podcast Ninja

I met with the Podcast Ninja again the other day to catch up on our respective hunting seasons, basketball teams, and Indiana’s best-in-the-country college football team. We took some time to discuss the blessings (and possible pitfalls) of praying for the persecuted. 

After our conversation which was recorded in the middle of the week, I came back and updated everyone on a couple of things that were discussed…

1. The hunt was fun, but no meat! 
2. The Podcast Ninja informed me that he did talk to his kids about Hebrews 13:3 at dinner 
3. Indiana University rolls over Oregon (gave me a chance to watch Thunder comeback)
