Ebola is in Dallas– can you believe that? A Liberian man came to Dallas while infected and has spread it to many others! My soul, what’s next? My prayers have been going up for West Africa that somehow this plague can be contained and stopped before millions die. Now it has come to Dallas! The world has become a very small closet filled with many

“Are you crazy!? Don’t you know there is Ebola in Africa?” That’s what I am hearing from a few friends as they know we are returning to Africa in the next week or so. This Ebola scare creates irrational fears in all of us, simply because it is a virus without containment or cure. Believe me, I am not crazy, reckless, or overly bold.

In our previous blog, we pictured 28 year old Charles M. from Tanzania with orphans he found sleeping in an empty building. Charles is our staff representative in a remote area where the Gospel sound is faint. He is loudly blowing the trumpet. While in his travels, he found the 25 or so orphaned children living together with no adult care. They are abandoned

Ebola! This is the terrifying word in Africa right now. This deadly virus kills over 50% of those infected. West African countries of Giana, Sierra Leone and Liberia are in a plague crisis, with little hope of stemming the tide of death. May God intervene and do what man cannot do – stop this virus! There is another virus plaguing all of Africa, the

I am thinking about tribes! We see white & black tribes, political tribes, religious tribes, national tribes, ethnic tribes, all with clenched fists and no outstretched hands or hearts. We read and hear the news and it is bad news, hateful, and hurtful! Jesus got it right, “There will be wars and rumors of wars,” before He returns. We seem to have arrived! When

Did you read what radio talk show host Ann Coulter said about Dr. Kent Brantly’s medical mission in Liberia? I am shocked that this intelligent, Christian lady would make such immature statements on her website. It is absurd! I know Ann Coulter is a professing Christian, but this article that tirades against the money spent by Samaritan’s Purse to fly Dr. Brantly and the

How would you like to walk in Benjamin Netanyahu’s shoes right now? That good man has enemies on all sides and is looking for friends to understand the peril he and his people are in. He is finding very few. I, for one, want to stand up and be counted as a friend of Israel. That does not mean I am a war monger,

This is the last of the 6 days conference in Kahama. It was so humbling to have evangelists, laymen and young pastors thanking Barry Wood Ministries aggressively saying that they had never been to a bible teaching conference or spiritual conference like this – a place of teaching. We gave teaching to these men and women and they nearly cried. Every person we had

On Saturday, we taught how to prepare sermon and interpret the word of God. This was a special day for these two lessons. It was good because every participants was very passionate to read and interpret the word. Also preaching was very good. I gave them the book of 2 Kings 5:1-14 as a practical verse. They did a wonderful job. Each attendee was

I, Renatus, was teaching the Leaders’ Warfare. I spent my time with the group each day. In the chapter, I had so much to teach and God was so faithful and empowered me. I taught the materials in the section 3. I shared with people how to live miraculously, praying in the Holy Spirit how to pray in power and faith, why do we pray
