Ain’t nothin’ better than a good old chicken leg straight off the grill on the 4th of July! I think that after today, July 4 will be the favorite Holiday at the Seeds Children’s Home.  We had a Holy Hootenanny today! Read the journal here

Before anyone got there. I think God, the Holy Spirit, spent the night at Mount Elgon last night. Just to be sure He was there when the first one of us arrived. We squeezed in beside Him, filling every seat.  Truly a benchmark day in our ministry life today in Kenya.  I have done my best, and we have video evidence, but you would have had to be here to believe me fully.

When banging on the computer doesn’t work, maybe try praying?I may have fixed the glitch in the software.  Let’s see?  If I did, it was God because I have no clue what I did. Read the journal here

Meet my new personal trainer in Kenya.  We met on a steep trail just outside the Pastor Training Center in Kenyena, Kenya.  God gave me a visual for the day.  It ended up being the motivation to finish  and apply today’s sermon.I had a blast these past two days with these young discipleship training guys.  I hope you enjoy the read as much as i experienced living and writing it.

What in the world…a bloodhound?!Have you finally lost it, Mike Curry? No, but if God had not let me off of my self-imposed “rest leash”, I just might have lost it! Read today’s journal.  Maybe the hound illustration will connect.  If not…talk to a redneck friend.  They will help you out. WiFi is getting pretty dicey.  Journals may be sparse the next couple of days. Read the journal here!

Just in case someone reading this thinks that I, or other spiritual leaders in your life, never struggle with obeying God’s call and direction, PLEASE LISTEN TO ME THIS MORNING.  It is a hard...

As you read this prayer letter I am finishing week 1 of my 18 day return trip to Kenya.  I have been visiting the various ministries that I could not spend time with on my April visit.  In a few days a wonderful team from one of our partnering U.S. churches will join me for their first on-the-ground ministry experience in Kenya.  On this team are some life-long friends and ministry partners.  I believe God has some treats in store for us as we join Him in His work in...

The ministry in Kenya is pure joy for me.But, the travel is tough.  And being away from Teresa has not gotten easier with the years.And, for some reason the last short flight from Atlanta to Little Rock always tests me.  Slowest baggage claim ever in Atlanta today.  Then, the TSA process looked like the horror footage from a few weeks ago.  All of that send me rushing through the airport, like I and all of you who travel have done so many times in the past.  By the time I reach Atlanta I am...
