A journey through the bible Esther

I love the book of Esther and its implication that God can use one person to change the world for many. Its very inspiring to read and hear about her life and how she made such a difference! Be inspired by the video introduction into the book and of course then by reading it too!!

Hi our friend

San Francisco experiences such a beautiful month with sunshine and warmth. That opens the door for many to connect outside in the park or just walk around in the neighborhood. Just by doing that too, we were able to connect with different people that we haven’t seen for a while either. Our church had the monthly love the city event as well and that is always a wonderful way to pray together and also encourage people we meet while being outside. Jen was able to meet many new moms and nannies in the neighborhood parks and encourage them while Caleb got to play with their children and make his first friends. A win win. During the last week we also had quite a few meetings between a board we are part of and YWAM. Each were encouraging. Caleb is also doing well. He tries to say his first words while smiling and has lots of fun with a little ball friends from Germany send us. So we had a good week here! How was yours?

Also remember today and for the rest of your life that you like Esther are as well born for a time like this.

God bless you

A journey through the bible the book of Titus

When Paul writes the letter to Titus he teaches him how to be a leader in a Church. Be inspired.

Hi our friend

How was your week?

A week with extra time for prayer is always wonderful and that’s how this last week was. Prayer walking, praying for people or different things going on in the world or praying for our neighborhood and neighbors gives us each time a greater understanding of Gods heart and love for us and others. It also connects us so much more with our father in heaven which is always amazing. Thank you also for your prayers for us,  we felt many times how the prayers of you and others for us made a difference in our life. Set a regular time in your day to connect with God through prayer! Also please email us if you have any prayer requests we can pray for you.

As we said in the video blog above spend time to read the short book of Titus and be inspired!

God bless you

A journey through the bible the book of Nehemiah

The book of Nehemiah is right after the time of Ezra and he is also going back to rebuild but he rebuilds the city. But Nehemiah was in a different job position then Ezra, he was a governor, a political leader. Be inspired by the video introduction into the book and of course then by reading it too!!

A journey through the bible the book of Ezra

The book of Ezra starts of with how Ezra (a priest) leaves the land, that held them captive, together with 50000 people from Israel to go back to Jerusalem to rebuild the temple. His mission was that, but even more so to bring the people back to God. Be encouraged through this video intro into the book and then afterwards through reading it! May the book of Ezra inspire you to help people find their way back to God!

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!! We cant believe its only a few more days till Christmas. Wow time for sure goes fast. We were able to bless and encourage more people with some extra Christmas cards the printers send us. It was wonderful. We also got to celebrate the 87th birthday of a neighborhood friend. It was wonderful. We are excited for this Christmas weekend to celebrate with Caleb his first Christmas. It will be a lot of fun! We cant have the big Christmas dinner this year with neighbors but we will have one older neighbor for a Christmas meal which will be nice! Jesus always valued the one through his life and so do we!! How can you be a blessing to your neighbors this Christmas week?

We want to wish you a merry Christmas. May this be a Christmas for you where you can experience in a new and deeper way Emmanuel God with us!

God bless you

Markus, Jen and Caleb
